2 Announcements Children Stay in the Morning Service Today is the fifth Sunday of the month. Only children 4- years old through the second grade will be going to Junior Church. Children in grades 3-6 will remain in the morning worship service so they can see what adult church is like. Ministers Every Member Pictures We still need you! Pictures will be added to our Ministers-Every Member wall. Come and get one taken during the ABF hour today, December 30, in the TCA Library. Frames are available and can be provided. Ignite Winter Retreat Most people do not like sitting in the back seat. If they can t be the driver, they call out shotgun to have the right to sit up in the front passenger seat. Being people who like to control life, we often claim the driver s seat and have God sit in the passenger seat. Is that what God desires of us? Is He supposed to be in the passenger seat while we drive our lives, or are we supposed to be riding shotgun as He directs our life? Come to Winter Retreat January 4-5 and discover what it means to let the Holy Spirit drive your life. TBC Workday On Saturday, January 26, the Nehemiah Company and TBC volunteers will begin preparation work for the West Playground Renovation Project. Tasks include the removal of gravel, turf, and some equipment. On Saturday, February 23, we will have a second workday to finish and clean up. Please consider how you will participate! Book of the Month Today is our last day of the bookstore sale! Stop by after ABF classes and find some great deals!

12 Chinese New Year Around the Corner, Around the World Tri-City Chinese New Year Outreach Event on 2/2/2019 Our Chinese New Year celebration dinner and outreach event has been scheduled for Saturday, February 2, 2019, 5:00-8:00 p.m. Due to the overwhelming interest from the local community, we invite our church, TCA, and TFT families to purchase tickets first with your international students, Asian neighbors, and/or co-workers of various ethnic backgrounds in mind. Tickets are available for purchase today at the Bookstore. The ticket sale will be released to the general public on January 3. We expect the tickets to sell out fast. Because seating is limited, we ask that you prayerfully invite guests with the intention to further build friendships beyond the event. While a Gospel message will be clearly presented, the event is meant to be a bridge to help build relationships between Christians and the local community, so more will see the love of Christ and open up their hearts to the Gospel. Ways to partner and help: 1. Pray for God to use the event to save souls and to draw people close together and closer to Him 2. Invite your students, neighbors, and co-workers all backgrounds are welcome! 3. Participate by volunteering to be a host family and/or helping in another capacity. Invite and purchase for or with your guests ASAP. For host families, volunteers, or anyone with questions or interest, an information session will be held at the front of the auditorium immediately after the morning service on January 13, facebook.com/ TriCityBaptistMinistries 2211 W.
