Servants Needed


Habitat for Humanity "Apostle Build"

                                                Several churches, including FBC, are building a house!

                                    Contact: Ricky Powell 276-1645 or the Habitat office/store at 375-1177
                                                            with any questions or to schedule a day.
                                                  We need volunteers, lunches and monetary donations.
                                   Please encourage your Sunday school classes to sign up for a day to work.
 
What is an Apostles Build?
     An Apostles Build is a partnership that allows twelve church communities to join together with combined congregations to fully fund and build a house for a deserving Anderson County Family. 
     As Jesus’ original apostles were charged with spreading the word about Jesus, our twelve apostles are charged with assisting in the mission of Habitat for Humanity to provide decent shelter for God’s people.
How Will it Work?
     Each church community is responsible for marketing to their congregation of the opportunity to contribute to a Habitat home. 
     The cost to sponsor the Apostles Build Habitat House is $60.00 per square foot.  At an approximate size of 1100 square feet, the total cost of the house is $66,000.00.  We appreciate sponsorships of all size - from a single square foot to an entire room.
The Habitat staff will keep volunteers updated regarding the build schedule.
The build site is located at 1117 Kennedy Street.  Lisa Ward and her son, William, will be the gracious recipients of this house.

WILL YOU HELP?

 

 
We need additional workers (men and women) in the Pre-School area during Sunday School and also during the worship service. A greeter is needed along with teachers. Our faithful volunteers serve on a rotation schedule, rather than every week.
Please give this careful and prayerful thought to see whether this is a need you can fill.
Call Lisa Wallace at 716-0480 for more information. 
Please call Glenn if you can volunteer: 224-1622.


If you are interested in putting flowers in the church,
please call Tina Richardson 224-0227 or Mozelle Geisel 226-3540.
