🎶❤️ SHARE GOD’S LOVE THROUGH MUSIC & MINISTRY! ❤️🎶

Come join the FBC Nursing Home Ministry and FBC Music Ministry as we visit Towers Nursing Home on Saturday, August 8th!

One of the greatest ways we can reflect the love of Christ is by spending time with those who may feel forgotten or alone. We invite you to be part of our Towers Nursing Home Ministry, where a simple smile, kind conversation, or familiar hymn can brighten someone's entire day.

Our residents look forward to these visits, and your presence truly makes a difference. Whether you enjoy singing, visiting, praying with others, or simply offering a listening ear, there is a place for you in this meaningful ministry.

No special experience is required—just a caring heart and a willingness to share the love and hope of Jesus.

Together we'll spend time:

• 🎶 Singing hymns and worshiping together
• 💬 Visiting and encouraging residents
• 🙏 Sharing prayer and God's Word
• ❤️ Bringing joy, hope, and friendship to those who need it most

This ministry is a wonderful opportunity for individuals, couples, families, and friends to serve together and make a lasting impact in our community.

Come be the hands and feet of Jesus as we remind our residents that they are loved, valued, and never forgotten.

We would love for you to join us at The Towers! Your presence may be the very encouragement someone has been praying for.

"I was sick and you visited me..." — Matthew 25:36

🎶✨ You're Invited to Praise & Worship Night! ✨🎶

In the busyness of life, it's easy to become distracted by the demands of each day. That's why we invite you to step away from the noise and join us for a special evening dedicated to praising the One who is always faithful.

Come experience an uplifting night of worship as we gather to lift our voices, encourage one another, and focus our hearts on Jesus. Whether you're celebrating God's blessings, seeking His peace, carrying a burden, or simply longing to spend time in His presence, this evening is for you.

There will be heartfelt worship and a time to simply rest in God's presence. You don't have to be a member of First Baptist Church to attend—everyone is welcome! Bring your family, invite a friend, and come expecting God to meet you right where you are.

As Psalm 95:1–2 reminds us:

"Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before Him with thanksgiving and extol Him with music and song."

📅 Saturday, August 8
🕔 5:00–6:00 PM
📍 First Baptist Church Smithville
300 Hudgins Street • Smithville, Texas

Come worship with us as one church family and leave refreshed, renewed, and reminded of God's unfailing love.

We can't wait to worship with you! 🎶❤️
