Butler Christ Community
Greetings friends, are you right with God? I pray so! We never know when the Rapture will come.
Pastor Ron’s message was about the Rapture and how the signs are heightened around the world.
We have several on our prayer list, won’t you please join us as we pray for each other?
We also have several on our praise list, rejoice with us as we celebrate Gods goodness!
Say to Jesus, ”Because You care for me, I give you all my worries," and then rest in His love.
We welcome you to join us online or in person each Sunday morning at 11 a.m.
Have a blessed week!

Pleasant Ridge Baptist
Bro. Mark’s message was from Psalms 51.
David was a man after God's own heart. But God knew David was going to commit adultery and murder. God never took away the results of what David’s sins was. David’s repentance asked God to have pity and take away his transgressions. Wash me clean from this guilt. After you have punished me give me back my joy again. Create a new clean heart. Fill me with clean thoughts and right desires.
How do we react when we face our sins? You have to look within your own heart to make changes. You can’t keep the rules if the heart isn’t right. Faith builds as we walk and grow in life.

Turner Ridge Baptist
God has showered us with blessings the last two weeks. On July 20, we had Dr. Michael Cabell speak, his message, “Better Together: How You and Your Church Cooperate to Reach the World for Christ.” This year we celebrate the 100 year anniversary of the Cooperative Program, this program allows us all to be a part of spreading the word of Jesus to the county, state and world. Following the service we had our church picnic, the rain held off and it was a great afternoon of fellowship!
On July 27 we had our normal morning worship service, followed by a meal honoring those to be ordained as deacons that afternoon, Barry Stephens, Tom Koettel and Carson Gabbard. At 3 p.m. we had a Deacon ordination service. Testimonies from the ordination candidates were given. Bro. Richard Kendall, Crittenden Association Mission Strategist, had the message, followed by a time of laying on of hands by the ordained men present, then a time of commitment by the congregation and deacons. God is good all the time.
