This Sunday Will B Different

First, if you haven’t had a chance, stop by Broad St, Cups Fondren, or Sneaky Beans today to get a FREE cup of coffee courtesy of Bellwether!  It will help you give to Children’s Haven of Hope – helping No Child B Home Alone this Christmas!
Second, thank you for praying, inviting and sharing love with others this season!  Our No One Home Alone count is up to 3600 as of today!  This is NOT counting the free coffee given out!  Please keep on inviting people to church, Night of Worship, or a Christmas party!  See how many people we can TOUCH for Christ!
Last, this Sunday WILL B DIFFERENT.  Our Sunday morning service will be our LAST of the year.  We will not meet together for worship on Dec. 25th.  It will be different in that we are ASKING all our our church to SIT in the BOTTOM SECTION of the Performing Arts Center.  Why?  So we can B a church family and worship TOGETHER and to ELEVATE our Worship Experience!
Our message Sunday will be “One Solitary Life.”  It will focus on how the one solitary life of Jesus Christ changed this world, and if He lives inside you, you will NEVER be solitary or alone again.  Ever.  
Then, we will CELEBRATE Sunday night with our Christmas NIGHT OF WORSHIP.  It begins at 6pm. We hope you will B there and please INVITE someone who is lonely so they can SEE & KNOW they are NEVER alone with Christ.
Look forward to seeing you Sunday for Worship & Night of Worship!  Merry Christmas and God bless you!

Free Coffee and Helping No Child B Alone

Tomorrow, December 15th, is Bellwether's FREE Coffee Day.  Our church will be giving out FREE coffee at Broad Street Bakery, Sneaky Beans, and Cups Fondren.

We hope you, your friends, family, and co-workers will receive this gift from our church family.  It's simply a way to B a blessing to the entire community.

This year though, we want to give a double blessing.  Bellwether will match the total dollar amount of free coffee given to Children's Haven of Hope, a ministry helping no child be homeless in our city.  This is a way we can do a small part in helping the homeless children in Metro Jackson.  The more coffee given, the more we'll be able to give!    
So, we hope you and many others will receive this free gift, and in doing so, give to a ministry helping homeless children this Christmas.  

Merry Christmas, and may you know greatest free gift of all - Jesus Christ, as Lord and Savior.

Who is your Jesus?

We have a big Christmas week beginning this Sunday!  We hope you'll remember and B part of some of these Christmas offerings:

His Heart Santa Day - 12pm Sunday - Calvary Baptist Church
Mustard Seed India Dinner - 6pm Sunday - Duling Hall
ALL DAY COFFEE DAY - Broad St, Cups Fondren, Sneaky Beans - Thursday Dec 15th.  Bellwether will match coffee giving with a donation to Children's Haven of Hope - so please come out!  
Missions First Christmas for Children - 4:30 - 7pm - Friday Dec 16th
Christmas Night of Worship - 6pm Sunday Dec 18th!  

Don't forget:  Help No One B Alone this Christmas season!  Pray for someone, Invite Someone, Serve someone!  You Can!  We Can make a difference in people's lives and this community!  

And this Sunday, we'll ask the question:  Who is your Jesus?  Is He the Jesus ONLY of the manger?  Or is He the Jesus the angels PROCLAIMED - the Jesus who is KING OF KINGS, OUR SAVIOR, CHRIST THE LORD.
Often at Christmas (and in our own lives) we can see Jesus only as the sweet baby in the manger.  That is true, yet He is so much MORE.  We want you to know Jesus as King, Savior, and Lord:  of all the world, and of your life.  

We hope to see you this Sunday!  Remember - you can help NO ONE B HOME ALONE!

Courage to Share Your Faith

As we enter this Christmas season, we hope you are seeing opportunities to:  pray for people, invite them into a church family, and show the love of Christ!  

Please keep us with those you do, or any specific prayer requests, and text them to:  601.896.3200.  
Also, for all those in B Groups or other smaller groups, here are some upcoming Bellwether activities where you can share your faith:
