Tomorrow, Sunday, September 6, is "A Taste of Louisiana" at Longstraw Baptist Church. What is "A Taste of Louisiana?" I'm glad you asked.

It is the beginning of a 4 week emphasis of the Georgia Barnette Louisiana Missions Offering. What is the Georgia Barnette Louisiana Missions Offering? I'm glad you asked. In 1901 Georgia Barnette became the first Executive Director and Treasurer of the Woman's Missionary Union for the state of Louisiana. When asked why she would take on such a large endeavor, she said, "Love for my Savior and love for the people of this remarkable state, was about having a platform to mobilize believers across Louisiana."

The challenges were many, transportation was difficult, funding was scarce, and not everyone understood why missions in our own state mattered so much. Her answer was always the same for believers in Jesus who doubted her work; "How can we reach the world for Jesus if we haven't first reached our neighbors here in Louisiana?"

With the mission work that began in Louisiana through Georgia Barnette in 1901, we celebrate tomorrow in "A Taste of Louisiana." When you think of "Louisiana food" there are just certain foods you think of. That is what we will be bringing tomorrow for us to all enjoy eating together, celebrating the mission work began in 1901, collecting an offering for Louisiana missions, worshipping our Lord, watching videos of present day Louisiana missions, and loving the people of Louisiana.

Come join us at 9:00 for Sunday School, 10:00 worship, followed by "A Taste of Louisiana." It is going to be a glorious day.

Bro. Andy shared these verses of encouragement with us. If you missed seeing the sermon notes, here they are for you.

1 Corinthians 15:58
• “Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves
fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.”

Ephesians 4:29
• “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building
others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.”

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
• “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not
dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”

Romans 15:13
• “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Luke 1:37
• “For with God nothing shall be impossible.”

6-5-26, Last Day of VBS 2026 at Longstraw.
Let's finish strong! Parents, please see the attatched notice, we have a surprise for the Children!

06/04/2026

We got up early this morning and began finishing the "Empty Tomb" for VBS tonight. We completed it, took it to the church, and set it up for the outdoor Application Lesson tonight. Mary and Mary will be surprised when they arrive at the tomb where they had seen Jesus placed. They will find it empty.

We had 114 in attendance last night.

Ok. I was wrong. I will admit it. Yesterday, I posted that we had 103 in attendance for our first night of VBS at Longstraw. Well, that number was incorrect. We had 113.
Now, let's get this number right from last night, day 2 of VBS. We had 114 in attendance.
Now we move on to day 3. God is blessing VBS. He is working in VBS. He is getting all the praise in VBS. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Thank you Jesus for all you are doing.
