ANNOUNCEMENTS

2026 Church Envelopes
The 2026 church envelopes are available in the Welcome Center. If you do not see a box with your name on it, and you want one, please call Cheryl in the church office (919-494-5121) and let her know. The boxes will remain on the table in the Welcome Center through January 25.

Chili Cookoff
The Adult Council is sponsoring a chili cookoff after church next Sunday. There are two signup sheets in the Welcome Center. One signup sheet is for those making chili. The other signup sheet is for you to put your name and the number of people coming with you (including yourself) to the cookoff. We need to have a count so that we will know how many to plan for. Please call Debra Allen, Chair of the Adult Council, at 919-671-3722 with questions.

We will observe Baptist Men’s Day on January 25. The day will begin at 8:30 A.M. with a Men’s Breakfast in the Fellowship Hall.
