Life of Webster Groves Baptist Church

Cooperative Baptist Fellowship General Assembly
Fort Worth, Texas // June 20-23, 2012
In Scripture God works with ordinary people, doing infinitely more through them than they ever could have imagined. God can do the same through you. Come to General Assembly to hope, dream and imagine possibilities for your life. Encounter opportunities. Engage in community. Embrace your future. This is more than an event; what God does just may change your life.

Rev. Steve Aubuchon, a friend to WGBC, will be preaching God’s Word on Sunday Morning, June 24, 2012.  Steve works with Pathways Community Hospice (Delmar Gardens Family).  Previous to this position, Steve served as a Pastor in St. Louis city and then St. Louis County.  Many of us have met and been befriended by Steve through the Bosnian Food Pantry.  We welcome Steve Aubuchon to the pulpit of WGBC.

Ed Johnson, Director of the Webster Rock Hill Ministries, speaks to our congregation the Sunday morning of June 17, 2012.        Located at the corner of Waymire and Cornell, Webster-Rock Hill Ministries is a social services organization. Its mission is to assist the elderly and those who are unemployed or in financial difficulty. It receives and distributes donations from many churches and organizations in the area.  WGBC has participated in this ministry for several years.  Judy Holstein represents WGBC on this ministry’s board.

We celebrate birthdays on the first Sunday morning of the month at 9:15 a.m.  Coffee, milk and pastries are available for a donation.  May birthdays include: 23 Halla Chinnici, 23  Keillyn Johnson, 25 Pat Clark, 27 Joe McRoy.

Brenda Lisenby works with Angel House Rehabilitation & Education Center in Guangxi Province along China’s southern border. Angel House is one of the few schools in the country designed specifically to serve children with cerebral palsy.       “We definitely work among a marginalized segment of society,” Lisenby said. “This work gives me an opportunity to impact whole families, and even the community at large, as Chinese society learns how to affirm and welcome special needs individuals into their society. I am amazed at how God works.”
Brenda will be at WGBC on Sunday morning, May 6.  A greet-and-eat noon luncheon will highlight Brenda’s time with WGBC.  Bring a salad; the Missions Committee will provide sandwiches.
