2 This year s annual theme is ontheway. The life of faith is a journey it begins with a step in trust and leads through twists and turns, hills and valleys, wildernesses and brighter shores. The Bible is full of stories of people discerning wisdom while on the journey from Abraham and Sarah whom God called to go and find a new land to the disciples whom Jesus called to drop their nets and leave their boats and follow me. Being on the way, being on a journey, is not so much about the destination as it is about the way itself where key insights are gained and received. Here at First Baptist Church we are in a time of exploration in search of God s direction for our ministry. We are in a time of discernment seeking the signposts into a new future. We are in a time of intentional prayer and conversation to listen for the new thing that God is doing in our church, in our community, and in our world. Through weekly worship and small groups we will explore journey stories in the Bible and listen for ways these stories connect to our lives and the future of our church. In addition we will listen to the journeys that are unfolding right now around the world in the lives of our neighbors, refugees, immigrants, and people impacted by hate and bigotry. Lao Tzu said, A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. So, let the journey begin! Together, we are on the way. The year ahead is full of possibility as we walk On the way in prayer, On the way with hope, On the way by faith. Stacy

4 WOMEN S FELLOWSHIP FALL GET-TOGETHER and ANNUAL MEETING Thurs, Sept 1411:30 at Carol Eells house Come and share some women s fellowship after our summer apart. After lunch, we ll review the past year, elect leaders and vote a new budget, and talk about activities coming up this fall. Carol s address is in the church directory. Carpool if possible. Let your telephoner know if you would like to carpool from the church, so we ll know who to wait for if you re a moment late! Sonja will be phoning the Lunch Bunch list. If you re not on the list, give her a call. Remember, first timers don't have to bring a dish. It's very informal. All women and girls are invited! August 17, Mercy Gonzales Barnes visited FBC to tell us of her work in Iberio America and the Carribean. Her talk focused on her work with education and preparation of local church leaders in the region. Her insights on Cuba,after her visits there, were eye-opening. She spoke also about the on-line Masters level course for Spanish speaking church leaders that has begun.

6 Adult Education Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer. Rainer Maria Rilke This fall during Second Hour, we will conclude the adult series, Living the Questions led by Rev. Stacy Emerson. Living the Questions is a DVD and web-based group study exploring themes of contemporary theology and faith. Living the Questions will help seekers and "church alumni/ae" alike in discovering the significance of Christianity in the 21st Century and what a meaningful faith can look like in today's world. THEMES this fall include Social Justice: Realizing God s Vision, Prayer: Intimacy with God, and more FORMAT The format of each session includes a video, guided discussion, spiritual exercises and Bible study. The 20 minute videos for each session include conversation, sermon clips, lecture excerpts, and spiritual exercises for practical applications (including different forms of prayer and meditation, movement, walking the labyrinth, etc.). Since the overall theme is that of faith as a journey, not a destination, the livingthequestions.com web site will offer resources for continued exploration, including downloadable expanded study guides, extra video resources, and links. Sessions begin September 17 th at 11:00 a.m. in Fellowship Hall Cinema and the Sacred Exploring faith and culture, through the art of film and community conversation On October 7, we will view the family film, The Lady in the Van. Based on the true story of Miss Shepherd, a woman of uncertain origins temporarily parks her van in Alan Bennett s London driveway and proceeds to live there for 15 years. What begins as a grudging favor becomes a relationship that will change both their lives. This 2015 movie has an MPAA rating of PG-13. Come and join us on October 7th!
