Pastor Jerry's Birthday
What
better way to begin the new year at Faith Tabernacle than to
celebrate the January 16 birthday of our pastor, Rev. Jerry P.
Grubbs.
With help
of Sisters Lorinda and Lisa Barefoot, the Wednesday night kids
made a giant birthday and individual cards for Pastor Jerry.
They shared his birthday cake at snack time.

Sister Lorinda's Birthday
Since
Sister Lorinda's birthday is February 2, the last Wednesday
night in January seemed a good time for the youth to celebrate
the occasion.

Lorinda and the beautiful cake which was shared with the kids
at snack time.
The
kids made a giant birthday card as well as individual cards
with help from Sisters Lisa Barefoot and Alma Ridings.

Mother's Day
Our
mothers were asked to come to the front of the church for
pictures. They also received a nice basket filled with
"goodies" and then as they left the church, they received a
geranium for their flower garden. Faith Tabernacle is
proud of and appreciates all mothers, many of whom are
working with our youth to guide them into the way of the
Lord. God bless our mothers!
June
Father's Day
Our
Fathers were honored on their special day. All fathers
were asked to come to the front of the church for pictures and
received a nice "goodie bag" to take home from the church.
We appreciate all our fathers who are also "church fathers" as
they give their time and means to support the programs of the
church. There is great camaraderie among our church
family members.
July
Collecting Flip Flops for Missions
A
collection box sits by the church front door for flip flops to be
delivered to Haiti and other mission locations later this year when a church official
visits our churches there. Response has been very good.
We appreciate the generous participation of our folks!
With help of Sister Lisa Barefoot and Sister Lorinda, the
Wednesday night kids prepared the collection box.
The
Collection box at church was filled and emptied into totes
several times.
Several totes were filled with flip flops to be sent to
the Mission Fields

Church
Christmas Party
Under
the direction and planning of Karen Jacobs, the church family
met at "Lakes of Taylor" in Taylor, Michigan Tuesday, the 17th
for our annual Christmas Party. The facility was
decorated beautifully and the food and service were good.
Everyone brought a "generic" gift and chose one from the table
as their number was called. They could keep the one they
chose or "steal" someone else's. It brought lots of
laughs and bantering as gifts were exchanged again and again.
Wonderful fellowship with our brothers and sisters.
Looking like Christmas at Faith Tabernacle.
