Welcome to First Baptist Church! If you are our guest, please take a moment to register using the tear-off portion of this bulletin. We ask that you either place this registration card in the offering plate as we receive our offering this morning, or bring it by the Infor-mation Center. Our volunteers at the Information Desk will be helpful in finding your way around our church, as well as provide you with infor-mation about the ministries of our church. We also have a gift prepared for you, if you bring your registration card to the Information Center.

We are delighted to welcome Dennis Swanberg, a.k.a. “the Swan,” a.k.a. “America’s Minister of Encourage-ment” to our pulpit today. The Bible says that “a joyful heart is good medi-cine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.” (Proverbs 17:22 HCSB) In this hurting, broken world that we live in, Jesus said that He has come to give life and that more abundantly. (John 10:10) In part, that is what today is about. My prayer is that all of us would see that abundant life that Je-sus has promised to give to us.

Joining Dennis to lead us in worship is his friend and ours, Benjamin “Benjy” Harlan. Benjy is a prolific arranger and composer. He has served several Southern Baptist academic institutions throughout his ministry. Currently, he is the Church Music Consultant for the Louisiana Baptist Convention.

I want to say thank you to everyone who has worked to make this week-end a success. Many of you have given up a portion or all of your weekend. Thank you. I also want to thank those of you who usually attend Sunday School at 9:45 a.m. and worship at 11:11 for adjusting your schedule today. Your sweet and cooperative spirits have encouraged me. Because of our weekend focus with Dennis Swan-berg, we will not be having our usual 6:00 p.m. service tonight.

From Our Pastor Thank You For Coming If you are our guest, we have a special gift for you after today’s service. So that we can get to know you better, please fill out both sides of this tear-off section and bring it to the Information Center near the col-umns. We have a gift bag ready for you.
