Pray for the Search

DrJayCook FBC , , , ,

Well, the process of choosing a Minister of Music Search Committee is over, but their work is just beginning.

To my FBC family, please pray diligently and daily for Kenny Clark, Scott Sullivan, Jay Willis, Susan Ezell, Michaelle Harrison, & Donna Tuskan – our Search Committee.

Over the weeks to come, I’m sure that there will be plenty of “suggestions” given to them, and they need to hear from the membership.  But please pray that, above all, they will seek God’s guidance.  This is a vital ministry, and their work cannot be taken lightly or pushed too quickly.  We must (in all things) seek God’s will as we seek to reach those without a saving relationship with Christ and as we seek to build disciples.

Greater things are still to come,

Jay

I was coming home for lunch when I saw fog ahead – it was rolling in from the Gulf (and we live a block from the Gulf of Mexico).  Suddenly, I found myself engulfed by the Gulf-fog (pun intended).  I turned on my lights, slowed my pace, and continued home. Continue reading →

Are you as excited as I am?

I am SOOOO excited about Sunday – and life, in general, at First Baptist Church of Pascagoula.  For all my FBC brothers & sisters, let me share why…

1. Sunday morning we continue our study of some vital keys for Spiritual Growth.  I have been amazed by the comments/results from the first two weeks of the series.  God is at work!  If He can use my puny efforts, I can only imagine what He is going to do through such an amazing church.  Please pray for God’s movement during our 11:00 a.m. worship celebration – pray, asking God to speak through me – pray, asking God to cement truth, build commitment, or convict where needed – pray, asking God to touch hearts as only He can.  And invite a friend.
