If you have any friends or relatives in need of this service, have them call us at to sign up. MINISTRY SPOTLIGHT : Wow! I did not know we did that ! FCBA There’s a running joke around the ministry center that concerns the way I walk. Most everybody thinks that I am always in a hurry. That’s not the way it is, I just walk fast. For some reason I feel an urgency to get where I’m going. Lately, that urgency has carried over to evangelism. I have always been a “news junkie”, someone who has to know everything that’s going on in this world. As I watch the news on TV and read various articles, my sense of urgency to tell people about Jesus is growing. The world we live in needs Jesus now more than ever. The churches of Rome and Floyd County are feeling that urgency as well. On September 25 th our churches will come together for one day of service to our community. “Love Loud Floyd County” will give our churches a divine appointment to give back to our community. There will be various community projects for each church to participate in. On Sunday, September 26 th we will give a full report on this day to the annual meeting at Fellowship Baptist Church. This will be time to praise God for what He has done in our community. We pray that your church will be a part of this great day in Rome and Floyd County. If you’d like more information, please call the associational office at or ask your pastor what your church is planning to do. Let’s show Rome and Floyd County how much Jesus loves them through his body of believers!
