Mark Your Calendar
February
Our annual business meeting is coming up soon. Please continue to pray for God's blessings on the workers and various ministries of our church.
El Vista Baptist Church receives members upon profession of faith and believer's baptism, by transfer of letter (membership) from other Baptist churches, by statement of faith, and by restoration. Most candidates for membership present themselves during the invitation at the end of the pastor's message. Those who have been saved should arrange to be baptized soon.

Info & Messages
The start of the new year has been rough for many due to illness, injury, travel, and weather-related complications. Let's pray for one another and trust God to bring us through with a stronger faith and confidence in His purpose and plans for our lives.
"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." -Philippians 4:6, 7
Dr. Bob Jones, Sr. was a fiery, effective evangelist. He ended his earthly journey on the date in 1968 (January 16). His last words before the Lord took him home were, "Get my shoes; I must go preach." Even on his last day on this earth, he still had a fire in his bones to preach the Word of God! He had said, "Do right till the stars fall." - From John Goetsch's Revival Today

Youth & Teen Activities
The El Vista Teens have a full schedule of fun activities and spiritual training. Led by Pastor Phil & Randi Lancaster, the Teen Group meets in Sunday School at 9:30 AM, then has Teen Soul Winning at 4:30 PM. Wednesday night and Power Hour & prayer time start at 7:00 PM.
We appreciate the time our workers give to the young people -- teaching, visiting, planning, and hosting a number of activities every year. Our desire is to see the young people come to know the Lord Jesus as Savior; to walk with Him in daily life at home, school, and neighborhood; and to yield their lives to Him in following His will. Pray for our teens, their parents, and our outreach to them.
El Vista Baptist Church has been improving the Children's Church Ministry over the past few years. Now consisting of three groups during our morning service, our skillful workers love the children, and on an age-sensitive basis teach the Word of God. Many have been won to Christ and lessons for Christian living have been taught.
