Can You Help?

We have a need for garden tools. Hand Trimmer, Hand/Long Hoe, Wheel Barrel. Bring them into the church office. They would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank You: To the little church mouse who tended to the grounds over the weekend!!

 

Please Take Note: In an effort to create more space in the shed in the church parking lot we will be removing a number of items. These include a chest of drawers and a large number of boxes containing Christmas decorations, faux fur and other materials for making stuffed animals. Any of these items should be removed by the owners.

After June 15, we intend to donate them to the Once Again Shoppe.

Welcome to First Baptist Church of Penn Yan. We are glad you joined us and hope you’ll feel at home, as we celebrate our faith and praise God together.

 

In the pew in front of you, you will find a “get-to-know-you” card. Please take a moment to fill it out and place it in the offering plate.

 

We invite you to bring your children to the nursery during the service for a safe and Christian environment so that you may more fully experience Worship.

 

Following today’s service please come to enjoy coffee, refreshments and fellowship in the Great Room.

 

For your convenience hearing devices are available. Please speak with an usher for assistance.
