Still waiting on a CT with contrast test to be performed and waiting on insurance to approve test before we can do it. Still have pain if I sit, walk or just plain move around too long. When I can sit for a while longer than I can now, I will be back to HBC. Bed rest and therapy exercises to give me strength. Thank you, HBC family, for your calls, cards and prayers.

These individuals would not have access to a computer/email or cell phone and/or do not text on their cell phones. Please call the office (723.0707) and give your name and best contact number. Thank you! Darlene Windows into the Future: At their Nov. meeting, the Deacons unanimously approved a motion to set up a special fund for repair and replacement of the windows in our old building. Look around the building and you will see broken windows, rotting sills, windows that are about to fall out, and bulging walls created by broken lintels. The need for new windows is urgent! We are inviting contributions to a window fund to bring our windows up to date, thus enhancing the appearance of our building and cutting the cost of heating and air conditioning. To replace a complete window (the window, the sill, and the lintel) is $1400, but we certainly welcome contributions of any amount to the window fund. This would be a great way for Sunday School classes, WMU groups, youth groups, or families to honor or remember a loved one. You may write a check for any amount to Hampton Baptist Church, put Window Fund on the memo line, and place in the offering plate.
