Volunteer of the Week

Meet Mr. Chris Davis

He’s been a member for 20 years at FBCPS.

18 years of that time has been with kids between preschool, children and youth. He currently serves in the Treehouse with technology, helps in the Backyard and GAP with that as well when needed, troubleshoots our check-in system, referees Upward games, and supports every big event we have and smiles all the way through it.

His favorite thing about working with kids is seeing them being able to have fun while learning about Jesus.

Fun fact - he ran a 10k race in London, England. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️
And, I’ll add that he is loving Pickleball!

Thank you, Mr. Chris for your servant spirit and being so involved in many areas of ministry. We couldn’t do what we do without you.

Spring has sprung in the Treehouse! Mrs. Kelly and her decorating family have done an amazing job just as Mrs. Donna has done in the Backyard.

Tonight at Kidventure a mom said she heard her girls screaming and thought maybe something was wrong. Wound up it was just their reaction to the transformation 😂🌸🌼🌺🐜🐰🐥🧺🍇🪁stop by and see either of our kids worship spaces and you’ll love it! We will have something new to see in the GAP room soon!

Meet Mrs. Sandy McClure. Here is a little about herself:

She was on the Cradle Roll at FBCPS. She and her family moved away for about 10 years- returned when my baby was in the nursery.

She has taught in Children or Preschool about 25 years. Currently she is teaching 2nd grade on Sunday morning, and helps lead Bible Drill on Wednesday evening. There are so many things she loves about teaching children, but the thing she loves the most is seeing one of our kids make a public profession of their faith in Jesus.

Fun Fact- She has written 3 Children’s books ❤️❤️❤️❤️ she is an accomplished and published author!
Her books are:
Things I Ponder
The Chipmunk Family Odyssey
Jack and the Creekside Miracle

Thank you, Mrs. Sandy!

Good Morning! It’s a beautiful Saturday with no rain!

We have been working hard to get the Backyard, Treehouse and GAP ready for our new worship units that start tomorrow. In the Backyard our preschoolers will begin the series Playtime Theater, where they will interact and help tell the Bible story. In the Treehouse and GAP, the kids will begin Shake It Up. There will be clues to unwrap to help with the story and a great video to reinforce the days’ lesson. All 3 groups will have brand new music to enjoy as well. We hope to see you there!

Happy Saturday! Hope to see everyone tomorrow at First Baptist Church Powder Springs! It’s the end of mid-winter break and Upward Basketball and Cheerleading. To celebrate that we are having NBA day, which is NoBody Absent. I’d love to see all of you in your Connection Groups and Backyard Worship.

Also, it is 4th Sunday Family Worship tomorrow for the Treehouse and GAP kids. Worship bags are in the sanctuary foyer on the North Avenue side for the 9:30 service, and in the CLC lobby near the front desk area for the 11:00 service. You may keep the goodies in the bag but please return the bag to their location.

See y’all tomorrow!

Reminder that there are no activities for children tonight at First Baptist Church Powder Springs. I hope you are enjoying your time off from school and getting some much needed rest and relaxation.

Also, this Sunday is the 4th Sunday of the month, so it’s Family Worship Day. There will be no Treehouse or GAP worship at 11:00, but a class will be available at that time for those who attend the 9:30 worship service. This is held in the GAP classroom.

Enjoy your Wednesday!

Wow! Tonight was full of kids and fun. The Backyard kids learned the sweetest song and learned to spell God Loves Us, while singing. Some even cooked some pizza while in childcare. They were so cute! The Treehouse kids learned Bible skills, played the Orffs, shopped and bargained, and some even saved points for next time. I was amused at watching the kids try and get the most for their money and as one said, “I’m trying to stay under budget.” ❤️😂

02/15/2023

We hope to see all of our friends tonight at Kidventure!

We have Music and Mission Friends for the Backyard Kids, 6:15-7:45.

It is store night for our Treehouse kids, 7:00-7:45. Come cash in your points you’ve earned the last two months and take home some great prizes. Don’t forget about choir at 6:15, and Bible Drill at 5:30 for those participating.

*Important note* We will not meet next Wednesday, February 22, due to Winter Break.

See you soon!

Volunteer of the Week

Meet Miss Emily Davis!

She has attended FBCPS for 20 years and has been teaching for 6 years, she thinks 😉 most of those teaching years have been spent in preschool, but last week she kicked off our new worship hour for 4th and 5th graders. It had been a prayer of mine since last August for the Lord to show me or lead me to who could provide this special time for our older kids. About six weeks ago, Emily came to me and said she felt like she needed something new and wanted to move to the children’s area. When I told of her my desire for 4th and 5th graders, she jumped at the opportunity! She’s full of excitement!

Her favorite thing about teaching is building relationships and making personal connections with the kids. “I want every single child to feel like they belong in whatever room they walk into, so that they always want to come back to a place that feels welcoming!”

A Fun Fact is that she is a big sports fan! She loves Tennessee Football and Braves Baseball. She also played basketball in middle school.

Thank you, Emily!
