Acknowledgements

It takes a great deal of work for something like this to “come together.” Projects like this take much time and require diligence! So, I would like to begin by acknowledging Sue Fudge and Christina Sanders, specifically, for all the time and all the hard work they devoted to this project. Not only did they volunteer for this undertaking, they followed through by gathering information, compiling it, organizing it, and printing it! If not for their dedication to this project, you would not have it in your hands today.

My thanks also goes to Kevin Fudge and Richard Sanders for all the help and encouragement they were to their wives during the months in which this project has been “in progress.”

We also wish to acknowledge a generous donation from Meadors Funeral Home in Republic. They generously provided use of a color printer free of charge. This allowed us to provide full color pictures at virtually no cost to the church family.

Once the printing was complete, there were a number of individuals who helped assemble the final project you now have before you.

I also want to thank each and every one of you who provided your information so that we could include it within this volume!

Church Family

Directory

“Where YOU Belong!” A Note From Pastor

Dear Church Members:

Our slogan at West Republic Baptist Church (WRBC) is “Where

YOU Belong!” This church is not a building—but a body of believers. We,

as members, are WRBC—and we are a family! We are a spiritual family

bought by the blood of Jesus Christ, bonded together with Him forever!

What we experience together as a New Testament local church, as we

fellowship together, is just a little taste of heaven on earth.

So, this is much more than a “church directory.” It is a family photo

album! In addition to photos of our brothers and sisters in Christ, it also

contains information that will help us know each other better, keep in

contact more easily, and pray for one another more specifically. Recognizing

that, we desire, and expect, our family to grow. So, the online directory

makes it possible to make additions more easily and quickly than a hard

copy.

I would like to thank Christina Sanders for all her hard work in

completing this edition of the WRBC Church Directory! Very few people

understand all the work involved in such a project. Christina did a great job,

and all her hard work is appreciated!

Believers, life is not always easy, but having a church family to pray

with you when life is tough, and to rejoice with you when things are going

well, makes the valleys more endurable and the mountaintops all the more

thrilling! May we always continue to encourage and uplift one another, and

may we consistently invite others—not only to church—but, most

importantly, to come to know Christ as their personal Savior!

May God bless you—and may God continue to bless West Republic

Baptist Church!

Dr. Christopher Beck WRBC Pastor I Samuel 12:24
