Thanks to the many churches who have reached out to help FBC Bayou George! Several teams are going out in the coming days to help with recovery! Also, donations are coming in toward replacing the roof on the building, but your help is still needed! If you can give toward this urgent need, please direct your gift to the Mobile Baptist Association, noting that it is for FBC Bayou George. Thank you again for blessing these brothers and sisters in Christ!

Also, on Florida Baptist Convention’s website, you may access a list of churches in need of a partner to help them recover from the hurricane. Please see https://flbaptist.org/churcheshelpingchurches/  for more information.

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

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
