FREE EVENT

CRBA Fall Meeting Short Flyer 2021


Please contact the CRBA office (828-437-0137 or admin@crbanc.org) to let us know who your church messengers are for this year’s CRBA Fall Meeting which will begin at 4:30 p.m. on October 17th at Burkemont. We will need the names of those attending the business meeting so we will know how much food to prepare. The cost of the meal is $10 per person. 

At 6 p.m., following the business session and meal, we will have a wonderful Worship Celebration where everyone is invited to attend. Reservations are not necessary for this portion. 

Choir Rehearsal will begin at 4:30 p.m. 

There will be special activities for children, youth, and adults. We look forward to seeing you there!
 


Coats for the City Dates


We are excited to announce we will be partnering with our State Convention this year collecting coats for those in need in New York City. As you know, scripture tells us to be witnesses in our communities, state, nation, and world. Therefore, part of our Acts 1:8 strategy this year will focus on New York, and we need your help. If you have new or “gently used” coats (heavy or light) that you wish to “send on mission” please bring them by our CRBA office or bring them to our CRBA Fall Meeting and Celebration October 17th and drop them off at a designated location in the parking lot of Burkemont Baptist from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. prior to our Worship Celebration which will begin at 6 p.m. This is a great way to be involved in missions!
 


4th Annual Golf Tournament 2021


This is always a great time of recreation and fellowship. If you have not yet registered a team, please call Earl Cross today. Also, I encourage each of our CRBA churches to “Sponsor A Hole” at $100 per hole. Several local business owners are participating, and it is our hope our churches will do the same. Make hole sponsorship checks out to CRBA and put “Golf Tournament Hole Sponsorship” on the memo line. Proceeds from hole sponsorships goes to the purchase of toys for Burke County children in need.
 


Fill_the_Tank_ppt_slide5 2

I am very excited about the statewide Fill the Tank baptism emphasis and celebration scheduled for Sunday, September 12! It would thrill my heart to have all the baptistry pools of the Catawba River Baptist Association filled with water AND people who are publicly professing their faith in Jesus Christ. I also pray this emphasis will be a spark that ignites a revival and awakening across our state and nation. Here are a few ideas from Scott Setzer you will want to consider as your church prepares to Fill the Tank.
