A Note of Thanks

Hi, all,

Just wanted to thank you for providing food for the bereavement dinner and for helping the Fellowship Committee in so many ways. Several people stopped by the kitchen to express their deep appreciation. It's wonderful to witness Christians embracing a family in the wake of a loss.

God bless!
Members of The Fellowship Committee

Wednesday Night Bible Study/Prayer Meeting postponed

Charles Town Baptist Family,

We will not have our wednesday night Bible Study and Prayer meeting tonight. Roads are too dangerous to be out and about. Stay home and drink hot chocolate today. And remember that no matter how much snow comes today, Summer will be here in due time.

Weather permitting, we will have our Saturday meeting for the by-laws review team, and I will send out an email on Friday about that.

Love you all, and even in the snow, I am happy to be your pastor.
Bro Brian
