    Preschool Care Needed

    You should see the smiles on kids’ faces when they come to play with their friends at church! A few are even sad to leave our church when it is time to go home! Do you want to be part of caring for these little ones? If you can give your time to care for preschoolers during one worship service each month, please contact Kathy (kathy@feefeebc.org). We need you! You will be doing a great service for our families and for your church!

    WE ARE HOSTING VBS AND SPORTS CAMP THIS YEAR! Yay!!!

    July 26-30 is VBS Wilderness Escape from 9:00 a.m. to12:00 p.m. We still have a few unique spots open for God to use you to help kids see how God guides and provides. If you are interested in volunteering, email Kathy at kathy@feefeebc.org or call the church office. Thank you for picking up supply donation slips.  Donate or purchase the item(s) on the slip of paper and return to church by July 5. Lots of hands are needed for a successful VBS; sign up today! Please pray for the volunteers and kids as all the details fall into place.

    Sports Crusaders Basketball Camp is also July 26-30 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.

    In 2019, 4 children came to know Christ through our basketball camp! What a tremendous ministry this is for our kids to enjoy and know Christ in a fun and unique way. As we host these phenomenal college students who are coaching, we have a few needs that you can help out with!

    • Bed & breakfast (2 homes would be great!)
    • Gifts cards and/or cash for meals
    • Prayer for crusaders and children who attend camp

    If you or your Bible Study groups can help with these needs, please see Kathy. As always, thank you for your generosity!

    Registration for VBS and Sports Camp Still Available

    Register on our website at feefeebc.org/sports-crusaders or feefeebc.org/freevbs. We can only accommodate 40 kids for basketball camp, so register early. (The same registration form can be used for both events).

    Family Swim Night

    The very next week after VBS we are hosting a FREE Family Swim Night at the Bridgeton Municipal Pool on August 6 from 6:00-8:00 p.m.

    Thank you for making an Impact!

    Thank you to everyone that participated in making an impact in our community during Impact Week! You were definitely a blessing.  We were able to provide needed improvements to a neighbor’s house. We packaged food at St. Louis Area Foodbank that will bless hundreds of people in the area. We wrote cards to encourage people. We did yard work at a local homeless shelter. We provided groceries for a neighbor. We prepared dinner for a homeless shelter. Thank you for being willing to sacrifice to share the message of God’s love with those around us!

    Swim Night Rescheduled – Friday, August 21

    Our Swim Night has been tentatively rescheduled for Friday, August 21. We will continue to monitor the progress of restrictions by the county and make appropriate changes if necessary.

    Upcoming Events/Serving Opportunities

    Despite the sheltering in place, we have some great opportunities to serve our community. We still have the Mobile Food Market every other Monday, and August 2-8 is Impact Week, where we serve our community through various projects. These will be great opportunities for families to serve together. You can sign up on our website.  You can also do your own family projects: make cards for local police or help a neighbor with yard work. Be creative as you serve your community.

    Maybe I will see you at our Swim Night on Friday, July 31 from 6:30-8:30 p.m., at the Bridgeton Pool? It will be a lot of fun!

    KidsZone

    Just a reminder, there are weekly Bible lessons for kids on our church website that you can use at home that comes with some downloadable activities.

    Prayer

    I miss you all immensely!  I pray for you often that the Father will give you all the patience and love you need to carry on leading your children to know Christ better.  Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you lead your families.

    Pray for your staff as we decide on how to continue ministry and meeting together in the coming weeks.

    “Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.” Joshua 1:7

    How are you going to make an Impact?

    Signups have started for Impact Week! You can go to feefeebc.org/impactweek to see the full calendar of events and find the link to sign up to serve that week. If you have any trouble signing up, please contact Andrew and he’d be glad to sign you up. If you do not see something that works with your calendar then I would challenge you to think creatively about how you can make an impact in your community. You could buy some groceries for a family in need. Write cards to people who need some recognition like postal workers, school staff, emergency responders, hospital staff, or grocery store workers. You could do some yard work for a neighbor or pick up trash at a local park. There are lots of different possibilities that you can make an impact that week. Our goal is to have everyone in the church involved in serving in some way that week. If you have any questions contact Andrew (andrew@feefeebc.org). Take a photo documenting your impact this week and send it to Andrew letting him know that you served!
