FEATURED ANNOUNCEMENTS


1. Easter Calendar:
March 19th 1:00 p.m. Easter Fun Day at the Gardner Campus

Easter Sunday - services at our new regular times of 9:30 & 10:452. The Common Meetings
In the two most recent newsletters there was a two part article from Pastor Derek entitled The Common, The Difference - that boils down to the notion that we need to be more
"common".  At the March 16th business meeting Pastor Derek announced that there would be a series of meetings called The Common Meetings to discuss what that looks like in the life of our church in our community and the changes (including a name change) we need to make in order remain relevant in our culture and communities. Meeting schedule: March 29 @ 11:30 a.m., March 31 @ 7:00 p.m., April 4 @ 7:00 p.m. and April 9 @ 9:00 a.m. Join us at one or all of the meetings to learn, to ask questions and to share your concerns.

SERVE
Wednesday Night Supper is another great way to serve your church family. Help is always welcome for food preparation and serving. For more information contact Becky Burns 913-522-9842  

Did you know that research indicates the people visiting a church for the first time will begin making their decision about whether or not they will come back a second time as soon as they drive into the parking lot and that they will make the decision often times before they hear any music or a sermon. That means that GREETERS are vital to the decision making process of first time guests. Greeting is a great, simple way to start serving at First Baptist. Want to know more contact Pastor Derek at pastorderekv@gmail.com or Leann Carrick at leanncarrick.fbc@gmail.com
