    Impact Week Thanks

    Thank you to everyone that participated in our Impact Week! I was overwhelmed with seeing how many people were volunteering their time and showing compassion and love to our community. You worked in food pantries.  You helped paint homes. You donated items to refugees. You wrote thoughtful letters to people. You provided meals. You gave 458.5 hours of volunteering in one week’s time to make an impact in our community. Thank you for being the hands and feet of Jesus! My prayer is that you will not limit this to just one week but that you will continue to have compassionate hearts and look for opportunities to serve our community year-round.

    Upcoming Mobile Market Dates

    Anyone in the community is welcome to drive through our Mobile Markets on the following Mondays from 10:00 a.m. until noon (or whenever we run out of food) to have FREE groceries put in their car!

    Impact Week Celebration, September 19

    At the end of Impact Week we want to celebrate! So, we’re going to have a unique Impact Week Celebration on Sunday, September 19. We will have one worship service at Redemption Ranch (77 Redemption Rd., Winfield, MO 63389) at 11:00 a.m. Then we will have a free lunch followed by an afternoon of fun! Some fun things to do there include hiking, canoeing, swimming, volleyball, yard games, board games, and more!

    Impact Week, September 12-18

    How are you going to be a blessing to your community during Impact Week?  Our goal during Impact Week is doing as much good for the community as we can. And we need you to make that happen! Look for our sign-ups at church or on our website (www.feefeebc.org/impactweek) to be a part of this great week. We’re also encouraging every Bible study group to organize their own service opportunity. So, get your group together and talk about what you’re passionate about or how you’d like to help someone around you.  It could be volunteering with a local food pantry or homeless shelter. It could be doing yardwork for a neighbor or shut in. Brainstorm in your Bible Study this week about how you could make an impact.  Whatever work you do make sure to let Andrew (andrew@feefeebc.org) know so that we can keep track of all our work that week.

    Back to School

    School is starting very soon! I know that makes some kids excited and some kids nervous. Families will be doing a lot of prepping for going back to school. One thing I would encourage you to do to help prep your students is to pray with them and for them. Pray that they will do well this year, that they will have good friendships, and for their safety at school. Most importantly, though, pray that God will use them to glorify Him this year at school.  Talk to your kids about different ways they can point people to Jesus at school.

    Going back to school also makes every teacher experience stress. They need to be prayed for also. On Sunday, August 22, we will be having a special prayer time in both services for our students, teachers, and school staff.  Make sure to join us that day as we lift our schools up in prayer!

    Upcoming Mobile Market Dates

Anyone in the community is welcome to drive through our parking lot on the following Mondays from 10:00 a.m. until noon (or whenever we run out of food) to have FREE groceries put in their car!

    Thank you for giving life by giving blood!

    Thank you to everyone that gave blood on July 14! We collected 17 units of blood that can bless up to 51 people. I appreciate your willingness to give to save lives. Our next blood drive will be September 10.

    Impact Week, September 12-19!!

    Our annual Impact Week is coming up soon! This is a week every year where we try and do as much good in our community as possible in one weeks’ time. In the past we have served at a lot of different locations in many ways: doing yardwork for our neighbor, packing food at food pantries, painting a home in our neighborhood, baking cookies for local first responders, providing meals for a homeless shelter, writing letters to soldiers, and a lot more. I hope you are already thinking creatively and praying about how you could “pursue the good of our community” that week!

    Free Market, August 7

    If you have been doing spring cleaning, I hope you have held onto some good things that you can give away during our Free Market this summer on Saturday, August 7. The Free Market is our annual “garage sale” but everything is FREE! Church members can give away their new or lightly used items at this event. So as you are going through your house and see the things that you don’t really use or need anymore, hold onto them for our Free Market.

    All Church Workday

Bring gardening tools if you have them.
