Hi Springfield,

 

Here’s the song on my heart today.

“I was sinking in a sea of sin and shame,

But Jesus found me, and He changed my name.

He could have let me drown … but instead He took me in.

Love lifted me … when nothing else could help…”

 

This powerful song is helping me today.  I hope it reminds you of the Gospel. We were sinners. Jesus found us. Jesus made us new. All because of God’s great love. He’s an amazing God.

 

Here are some of the things happening at Springfield Baptist Church.

CHURCH OUTING

 

Our annual church outing is around the corner, and you don’t want to miss it!  Join us Saturday, September 18^th at 11am at Lake Benson Park. It’s going to be an amazing time of food, fellowship, and fun. There will be food trucks, plenty of games and fun for all ages, and opportunities to support minority owned businesses. We can’t wait to see you there.

 

EDUCATION DAY

 

On Sunday, September 19^th we will observe our annual Education Day. We thank God for the opportunity to celebrate education and the ways it empowers and enriches our lives. Proverbs 4:13 says, “Keep hold of instruction; do not let go; guard her, for she is your life.” (ESV) On that day all members are asked to donate $25 to the Scholarship ministry to help fund future scholarships for our children. Please join us on this important day.

 

That’s all for now. As usual KEEP THE FAITH, STAY SAFE, WEAR, WASH & WAIT.
