UPDATE: Folks answered the call.
It's time to serve! Saturday morning at 8:45, we are going to meet at the church and head over to Timber drive and a few other locations to clean out the creeks that have been clogged with debris as a result of the flood. If you can pick up trash or do some heavy lifting, come help us. We need you!!! (Probably should bring your rubber boots and gloves!)
The devastating floods that hit Palestine, Texas the early morning hours of April 30, 2016 have had a great impact on many lives here in Palestine. First Christian Church has been at the forefront of efforts to clean up and restore lives and homes damaged by those rising waters. Our very own Jordan Byrd has been center of those activities from the very first morning and is still leading the way, following the example of Jesus Christ in His service of community and people in need. Take a look at some of the efforts made by our folks here at First Christian Church and community members pitching in to help. Additional pictures are in 2016 FLOOD RELIEF ALBUM.
Since I am new to the church it has been a nice time of fellowship with other church members. Jordan makes the class so enjoyable with his enthusiasm while answering our questions. He explains passages in terms that make it easy for us to understand. I am really learning a lot about Bible Stories! I would encourage anyone, who wants to learn more about the Bible to come & join us. You'll be glad you did!
