Bob McK, Chuck Haley, Doug Davis, Tyler Lowery and Russell Smith flew out of RIC for an El Al connection in Newark, NJ. They will be spending the next week traveling to an incredible region of our world. I was so jealous to leave them there and head back to Tappahannock!

We had the joy of baptizing six believers during the service and to welcome a new family into our congregation. The congregation was packed out with family and friends there to support those being baptized and it was just a good time. I especially enjoyed seeing Bob baptize his grandson, Zach.For those of you who receive our monthly newsletter you will read about a financial challenge. In the newsletter, I encouraged the congregation to match the highest priced gift that is given this year with a charitable contribution. There are so many places that you could plug this gift. These are a few that I listed in the newsletter:Lottie Moon Christmas Offering Our ministry in Ghana Help with an electric bill Salvation Army Toy Drive Help with rent The Son’s of the Father Help with car repair Our associational missionary, Kenny Park With this said, check out the following video that was sent to me by Ashley Miller. Thanks Ashley!eVqqj1v-ZBU News - Latest Mon, 01 Dec 2008 07:29:32 +0100 http://www.bealembc.org/blog/latest/pass-the-blessing-along.html Two weeks ago (Nov 16) I shared with the congregation about the joys of giving. The pleasure we receive when we step out of our comfort zone to give a little more than maybe we are used to doing. During the message I told the story of receiving a very kind and large financial gift earlier in the month. When we received this money, Veronica and I quickly decided that we could not keep this to ourselves. So, we began a discussion as to where it might best be used.
