Coming Soon!

Starting Tuesday, November 11, at 10 a.m., Mrs. Gale Adams will lead a monthly class for ladies through January. Each class is open to all women in the community and includes a prayer time, a devotional based on a selected book, and a lunch of finger foods, fruit, and dessert. Invite your friends and family! Bring your Bible. No books will be necessary.

In November, Gale will use "Legacies of Light: Modern Heroes of the Faith" by Stephen Davey.
We'll post sign-up sheets for the meeting and lunch in the back hallways of the sanctuary and fellowship hall. You may contact Beth at the church office (beth@fbcpf.org or 865-453-4647) to add your name to the list. Lunch will be finger foods with fruit and desserts.
Future meetings are on December 9 and January 13.
* If schools are closed for bad weather, the church will close. We will reschedule our meeting when weather permits. 

There's Still Time!

There’s still time!
You can pack a shoebox for Operation Christmas Child through November 9.
Each box sends joy, hope, and the love of Jesus to a child in need. Don’t miss the chance to make an eternal impact!

Watch the video below to learn where your shoebox goes once it leaves First Baptist Church. It's journey to the hands of a child is an interesting one. 

NOTE: No soap is allowed because of some countries' policies at customs.
