Thanksgiving is almost here! Please remember that we will NOT be serving a meal this Wednesday, but we WILL have one big service with children, youth, and adults combined at 6:30pm!

Students grades 7-12th, remember that this Wednesday is Fields of Faith! If you want to attend, you can either meet us at Gordon Wood Stadium in Brownwood or meet at Rocky Creek at 6:15pm, and we will take vans to the stadium. We will still be serving a meal at the church at 5:15. And PSA: Parents, this event may run a little later than our normal services, but we will try to get your students back as soon as possible!

We brought this group to the W.A.Y Summit this year! It is always such a sweet time learning about who we are in Christ and who He has called us to be! We love these students and volunteers!🤍

Day 3!! This morning was our 5k and mile fun run at 6:30 am. We had several attend and cheer on our runners. We had our quiet time, cabin devos, worship in the tabernacle, rec/free time, dance parties, more worship, sermons, and devotions! We learned about how it’s Jesus ONLY. He is the only way to heaven and we need Him only!

Please keep praying for us to finish the week strong and get good rest. Pray that we would be still to hear the Holy Spirit and allow the Lord to continue to move! 🤍

Check out all these SIBLINGS that we have a camp this year!! We are so blessed by these families 🤍

Here is part 2 of the posts from yesterday! This was the end of rec time and our evening worship! 🤍

This morning started early for 16 of our Rocky Creek folks with a sunrise prayer and worship time. This day was packed full of worship, devos, rec time, free time, Bible studies, and lots of fun!
Our topic today was Jesus First! Not only in relation to our priorities Jesus should be first, but also the first step to have life is to believe in Jesus.

This is post 1 of 2 because it wouldn’t let me add any more pics!

Falls Creek Day 1!! We made it safely this afternoon and hit the ground running. Lots of activities, our evening service, and closing out with our evening cabin Bible study. We are ready for some good rest to fuel up for our first full day tomorrow! 😊

This group is heading out for youth camp at Falls Creek in Oklahoma! We are taking 63 students and sponsors!! Pray for safe travels and open hearts to what God has in store for us this week! 🤍

We are so proud of this sweet group of youth with a heart to serve! They were a HIT today at a nursing home in Brownwood, helping our own Cathie Lehman put on a carnival for the residents!

We had a busy morning at our workday camp fundraiser! These kids worked hard in the heat and got to have a little fun after. Thank you to everyone who had them out for projects. We appreciate it so much! Next stop CHURCH CAMP in 9 days!!!! 🤍

(Not everyone is pictured. We were spread out!)

Mission Arlington Day 2! We didn’t get as many pictures from today, but we had a great day! We started the morning with organizing crates and boxes for donation deliveries. Then helped another group load some donations. Then we sorted some school supplies to get ready for distribution. Our afternoon was another vbs with the same apartment complex as yesterday! We were able to further the relationships built and share about Jesus! Now we are heading home! We are so thankful for how the Lord worked and used us for His glory!

We had such a busy day today! Started with a Bible study then off to our morning assignment- packing backpacks full of supplies and organizing school supplies for the kids in the community. Then our afternoon assignment was to put on a VBS for an apartment complex! We had a great turnout! 😊 We ended our day with a debrief and time of worship to celebrate the work that was done for the Lord! These students did amazing all day today! They were fluid, helpful, kind, and relational! They made so many connects with people in the community and shared about Jesus! We are so proud of each one of them stepping up, being bold and making an impact for the kingdom! 🤍

This group is heading out for Mission Arlington! Please be in prayer for safe travels, and the work they will do for the kingdom of God! 😊

FLS Camp 2023 is in the books! We had a blast and learned a lot about Theology, Truth, and Apologetics! Can’t wait for next year! 🤍

We are here at Follow Lead Serve Camp with 14 of our students! Please be in prayer for this group of students, our sponsors, the band, and our camp pastor, Blu!
