Men of Trust meet the 2nd Monday of each month at 6:30pm in the Youth Center. Don’t miss our next meeting.
Rather than following your wife around the mall, you could have been with us Monday night as we had a fabulous time at Little Beaver State park, as the men of Faith Baptist Church Beckley – known as “Men of Trust” got together for fabulous steaks and good times.
Our men will be meeting on the second Monday of every month, and men’s small groups meet weekly.
We’d love for you to be a part of our ministry. (Well, if you’re a man, that is. Women have a bible study on Wednesday nights.)

July 23 – A Special Celebration

This week’s service was more surprise than sermon – for two special members of our church. Pastor Larry and his wife, Mary celebrated their 20th anniversary at Faith, and the entire service was dedicated to praising God for their faithfulness and service.
Several members spoke of their admiration of the pastor for his loving heart – and for 20 years of working “as unto the Lord” for the people of Faith Baptist Church.
The music was uplifting, and the pastors were showered with love and appreciation.
You can listen to a podcast of the service here. (.mp3 format)
After the service, the whole church migrated over to the cafeteria at Appalachian Bible College for a thank-you luncheon. The only thing better than the fabulous food was the family time.
For more pictures of the day, check out Faith’s Photos.
Also, somebody *coughJimFritzcough* put together a montage of photos from the Halsey’s twenty years of service. Click here to see a cherubic Larry Halsey as a young minister, doing what he does best! Loving us!

Word from the Youth in Costa Rica!

Ruthie Gray sent the following message today after hearing from the group in Costa Rica:
Hello,
We finally got word from the group last night, Taryn called us from the camp payphone there, we were very glad to hear, as none of the parents had gotten word of their arrival.
As you know, they left Thursday. It was a 16 hour trip total. Lots of driving, a flight from Newark to Atlanta and then a LONG layover, then flight into CR. She said once they got there, everyone just divided into rooms and went to sleep for a few hours.
The conditions at the camp seem nice from what she described. It has rained a few times, which it is their winter/rainy season there, but it hasn’t been too bad she said. I could hear the kids in the background laughing and having a good time, singing “The sun will come out tomorrow”. Also, they have a charter bus taking them wherever they need to go right now. They went to a mall on Saturday, and also did some shopping for things to bring home. The McDonald’s could not understand them very well, so Taryn ended up with 2 combo meals:))
They went to a rain forest, where there are all kinds of wildlife and beautiful flowers and plants, also they did a zipline there.
Yesterday, they performed the drama that she is in at a church. She said it was packed. In the afternoon, they went door to door witnessing. They split into two groups. One group got to several houses, but her group only made it to two. That was because at both houses, the men seriously considered the plan of salvation. One of the teens would witness, the translater would help out, then he would talk to the person for quite a while. At the first house, the man accepted the Lord! At the second house (and this was where Taryn got to witness) the man came very close to accepting the Lord, but then was concerned that he was just not good enough. To hear Taryn talk of these things is so thrilling, her whole perspective on life is different right now.
There are 43 in the group. Don’t know if I mentioned before that the counselors from NY went to CR with them, so they have them as well as the 5-6 youth leaders that came to NY with the groups. Everyone is doing well, please continue to pray for strength and good health!
Will keep you updated, and as you know, the group will be there through next Sunday (30th) and begin travel back Monday, arriving here in Charleston Tuesday morning around 10:30 AM.

No Comments
There will be a small group meeting this coming Sunday, June 4th, at 9:00 AM in the cafeteria. This will give groups an opportunity to discuss details such as meeting times, food, childcare, etc. Due to the timing of the meeting, the following Sunday morning classes have been canceled for that day: Hoss Blankenship’s, Jim Fritz’s, Cormie Hildebrand’s and the Senior High class. Jim Jones class will be meeting and there will be Sunday School for middle school and under.
It’s never too late to sign up for a group. There are plenty of options.
Looking forward to an exciting summer!
