Carpenters for Christ

Carpenters for Christ We are the Carpenters for Christ - Attalla, AL. "We discovered many years ago that God was using us to do much more than build a building. www.cfcattalla.org

We have been a source of encouragement and revival practically everywhere that we have been. This has not happened because we are anybody special, but because we serve a God that has chosen to minister to His people thru us. I have been humbled by the way that God has revealed His love for His people thru this ministry. It has been very rare that the communities that we have visited have not exper

Brother Dave Tidwell

"The Carpenters for CHRIST ministry that is based at Cherry St. Baptist Church in Attalla, Al. is anchored in the scripture found in the Book of Psalms, Chapter 127:1 …….Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it. The present crew was established in 2001. We are a group of dedicated individuals that provide the labor to construct church buildings for small congregations that otherwise could not afford to build. We are registered with the North American Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention. Our ministry is dedicated to not only building buildings, but to strive to provide an environment that is conducive to Kingdom Growth. Our motto is: There Is No Limit To What Can Be Accomplished If Only God Gets The Credit. Twice a year we will take out between 60 and 100 men from some 50 different churches from across 9-10 states to help churches be able to realize their vision for their ministry. We are out from 5-10 days on each building Our budget to operate this ministry is funded by each man paying a $120.00 fee to participate in our projects. This covers the cost of food for the group. Anyone wishing to find out more details about our ministry is welcome to contact me. More information can be found at our website.

One of CFC’s Finest Couples Honored

🔥🚒 Rosa Fire Department – Member Spotlight 🚒🔥

As part of our continued community outreach to introduce the faces behind Rosa Fire Department, we are honored to spotlight two individuals who truly need no introduction to the Rosa community. William and Joan Murray are not only founding members of the department, but lifelong examples of dedication to faith, family, country, and community.

Married for 71 years and proud members of Rosa Fire Department for 44 of those years, William and Joan’s life together has been defined by service in every form. William was born and raised on Berry Mountain before dedicating 22 years to serving our great country in the United States Air Force. Joan, born in Cullman County and moved to Blount County in 1949, built her life on strong community roots and unwavering faith. As a military family, they moved across the country wherever duty called, raising their children along the way and instilling in them the same values of hard work, integrity, and service that have guided their own lives.

After completing his military career, William and Joan returned home to Berry Mountain in 1982 — the same year they became some of the founding members of Rosa Fire Department. For more than four decades, a total of 44 years, they have faithfully served their neighbors, helping build the department from the ground up and setting an example for generations of firefighters who followed. Their service, however, does not stop at the fire hall. They are long-serving members of Pine Grove Missionary Baptist Church, where their faith has remained the foundation of their lives, and they have also given of their time and talents through Carpenters for Christ, helping meet needs beyond our local community.

Adding to their remarkable story, there was also a season in their lives when William and Joan were over-the-road truck drivers — and as many would say, they could drive anything with gears, trailers, and wheels. Whether serving their country, raisin

Folks, an update on Lowell Hopper.
Yesterday, Mark—Lowell’s son—passed away after spending the entire day at the hospital with his dad. Mark was found in the basement of his home, and it appears he suffered a heart attack. He was only 52 years old.

Lowell is scheduled to undergo either a stent procedure or bypass surgery in the morning. He has been told about Mark and, as you can imagine, is handling this devastating news the best he can under the circumstances.

Please continue to lift Lowell up in prayer—especially over the next few days—for strength, peace, healing, and comfort during this unimaginable time.
