Sunday School Conference & Worship Event August 27, 2017 4pm Robertsdale FBC

“Church Vital Signs”

Sunday School is, perhaps, the best means for the local church to carry out the teaching ministry of Christ.

We invite you to join us as we train and prepare ourselves “to be approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the Word of Truth.” II Tim 2:15

MISSION HOUSE EXPANSION

For the last few weeks, things have been busy at

our Mission House on Canal Road in Orange

Beach. In order to make the retreat more function-

al, the Bessemer Builders are adding additional

showers and restroom facilities to the existing struc-

ture. This will benefit the groups, youth and others,

who participate in our many Gulf Resort Ministries.

Thanks to Danny Dearborn for coordinating the construction!

Nate Diehl is our Gulf Resort Ministries Director

and would be glad to coordinate use of the facility

as well as guide your group towards local ministry

efforts on our beaches, RV Parks and other areas.

We look forward to hosting the many groups in

our association, our state and beyond who will use

the Mission House to do the work of the Great

Commission.
