A significant number of members attended the ceremony which was lead by a prayer by Pastor Andy McDaniel. Pastor McDaniel thanked the Lord for the property and dedicated it to Him.

The Baptist Church is also planning their Vacation Bible Study for the week of July 15-19 themed Colossal Coaster World based on 2 Timothy 1:7 which reads:

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Any member wishing to help with the VBS should contact Carol Gutshall at 928-635-1291 to arrange to attend the training on April 6th at First Southern in Avondale.
