Hurricane Michael Recovery Urgent Needs 10.29.18

Bi-vocational Pastor, Jay Powell, First Baptist Church Bayou George in Florida reports multiple needs. First, they need volunteers to help remove water-damaged items from the church building, including ceiling tiles. There are yard debris that need to be gathered. These tasks will not be dangerous and would be suitable for youth as well as adults. Teams may spend a day or they may sleep in the fellowship hall, although there are no showers available, only restrooms. Food will be provided.

Secondly, they need help with the roof. A building team would be awesome, but the finances to help provide it would be incredible too! A church may provide money directly to the church or through the MBA. Any amount of help and support would be greatly appreciated. The recovery there is going to be a long one, and we can be a testimony to God’s provision for our brothers and sisters in Christ!

For more information on how your church can get involved, please contact Carolyn Battle at 643-3053 or disasterrelief@mobilebaptists.org.

International Christmas Celebration December 1, 2018

Each year International Ministries collects items for seafarers and other internationals in need. We also plan to give each seafarer a new wallet with a $10 Walmart gift card inside. It is through these gifts that we have the opportunity to express God’s love to those needing these items. Many parts of our world do not recognize Christ as the real reason for Christmas and we want to make sure internationals see this.

Please bring these items to the MBA office by November 21, 2018:

• Men’s Wallets

• $10 Walmart Gift Cards

• Crew Neck White T-Shirts (Med., Large and XL sizes only)

• White Tube Socks (Med. and Large only)

• Shampoo

• Conditioner

• Shaving Cream

• Toothpaste

• Chewing Gum

• Regular Coffee

• Individually Wrapped Hard Candy

• Cheese Crackers (No peanut butter crackers)

• Gallon sized zip lock bags
