I hope you are looking forward to
our upcoming revival services, November 13-16. Evangelist Keith Fordham will be our preacher during these days.
Please continue to pray that God would use him in great ways to
reach the lost and to revive the saved.
Also, please make every effort to be present at each service and to
invite your friends and family to join you.
Ps 85:6 - Will You not revive us again, That Your people may rejoice in
You?

Fall is upon us, finally! What a
summer we have had. I for one
felt it unbearable to even be outside, much less having to work
out in it. But with the cooler
weather coming, comes a great
opportunity to get out, visit and
invite friends and neighbors to
Sunday school. Everybody wants
to be loved and our small group
classes are exactly where you find
that love. If you're new to East
Newnan Baptist and want to take
part in our Sunday school hour. I
would love to meet with you and
help you find that perfect group,
that you can love and be loved in.
See You This Sunday!
In Christ,
Randy Jones

If you have not already noticed, we are entering the busy holiday season. Fall decorations make way for Christmas, and family, friends, and
food are the essence of time ahead. Even when these times occasionally
feel obligatory we must remember the attitude we embrace changes
everything.
1 Corinthians 10-31 says; “So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”
If we can remember to do even the simplest of things for His glory, how
great would it be when we do the Grander things through His glory? So
in this holiday season, remember in all things Give Him the glory and
honor and praise. Do it not because it is best for you, rather do it so
that many may be saved.
Thanks and God Bless

ENBC LOTTIE MOON POST OFFICE
We will have our annual ENBC Lottie Moon Post Office again
this year to help raise funds for the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering.
As in the past, our post office will be set up in the hospitality room off
the foyer. This is a way for our church family to give Christmas cards
here at church to friends and family who are active members or regular attenders of East Newnan. (Please note—we do not mail cards
or distribute outside the church.)
David, Susie and our youth, as well as WOM ladies will be helping with our post office this year. We will be accepting Christmas
cards Sunday, November 20th through Sunday, December 18th. You
may place your prepared cards in the container provided outside the
hospitality room. Please consider placing a gift in the offering plate
to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering in lieu of what you would have
spent on postage. Throughout the season check at our post office
and see if you’ve received cards.
Dear Church,
It’s hard to believe Christmas is right around the corner, but
it is approaching fast. Our presentation of our Singing
Christmas Tree will be
December 11th at 6:00
pm in front of our
church. Our program
will have familiar Christmas songs
that everyone knows and will want
to sing along with us. There will be
a DVD presentation that goes with
each song as well as fire pits going,
Christmas desserts, the reading of
the Christmas story and a gift for
all of the children that attend.
There is still time to join the choir.
If you are interested simply come
to rehearsals on Wednesday
nights at 7:30 pm.
As always, thanks again for
the privilege to serve with and for
you.
Bobby

Thank you! Thank you to all who brought food for World Hunger Day as well as those who contributed to our State Mission Offering. Our State Mission Goal was $1,500 and we received
$863.00. Thank you for your help to feed people within our state both physically and spiritually.
WORLD DAY OF PRAYER: Baptist Women’s World Day of Prayer will be held at Rockridge beginning with
registration from 10:30 am to 11:00 am on Monday, November 7th. We would like to have enough going to
take the church bus. We need to leave by 9:45 am. There will be an $8.00 charge for lunch, which will be
paid at Camp Rockridge when we register, and please bring a few dollars for gas. Don’t miss this time of inspiration. Please see Linda Fowler, Hilda Meadows or Jane Petsch to sign up as Rockridge will need to know
how many to prepare for. This will serve as our November WOM meeting.
CRAFT GROUP: Craft Group will meet on Tuesday, November 29th in the fellowship hall, 6:00-8:30 pm. We
will be working on sleep mats for the homeless and Alzheimer throws. Please join us.
OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD: Our collection for Operation Christmas Child started October 16th. Boxes
are available in the foyer. We need them completed and turned in no later than November 16 th. Thanks for
your help as this will probably be the only gift many of these children receive.
LOTTIE MOON: Our Lottie Moon Dinner will be on Sunday, December 4th at 6pm. We will be serving soup,
sandwiches, dessert and a beverage. There will be no charge, but we will be taking donations for the Lottie
Moon Christmas Offering. Takahiro Oue, and his wife, Lana, will be our speakers. Our Lottie Moon Offering
goal is $7,500.00 with a challenge goal of $8,500.00.
“Ready and willing, Lord, here am I.”
