Page 2 From the Pastor I greatly enjoyed our time at Future Focus. It was good for the church family to have a responsible time of sharing ideas and responsibilities. As IBC moves forward, we must embrace what God would have us do. Our church mission statement is: A great commitment to the great commandment and to the great commission will build a great church. Now just because we have that catchy slogan is not enough. We know we must be committed to sharing the gospel and training believers. As a result of our meeting together, our church is praying for God to help us understand how we can accomplish our mission. Pray for His direction in how we finish well. Can God use 2 Bible Studies and 2 Worship services to help us in our commitment? Does IBC need to build a building to help us in our commitment? Can we reach our community and have room for new people if we go back to 1 Bible Study and 1 Worship service with no new spaces created? Most of all, we must pray not my will or preferences but God s will and His preference! Many of you have encouraged me by saying, It s growing pains, pastor. I believe the growing pains aren t all based on new people and new classes, but a growth that is happening within each one of us. For that I am thankful! Please pray! Tonya Nobles 2463 Greenwood St. (01) I would also like to welcome Tonya Nobles to our church family. Blessed to be your pastor, Bro. Tommy Gwen Beckham Betty James
