Chicagoland Baptists,
Here’s the Prayer Call info for tomorrow morning (click here or call 331-218-1983 | Conference ID: 736 528 797#).
May you be blessed and bless others during this “festive season when families and friends exchange gifts in memory of The Gift laid on the altar of the world for the redemption of the human race,” as Lottie Moon put it.
Here is someone to know about – Reverend David L. Sutton. Pastor Sutton was born and raised right here in Chicago. Since 2009 he has been Pastor of the Bread of Life Missionary Baptist Church, which has stood as a pillar in the West Englewood community for over 50 years. He received his Bachelors of Science in Biblical Studies from Moody Bible Institute and both his Graduate and Doctorate Degrees from North Park Seminary where he has recently been hired as an Adjunct Professor teaching in the areas of leadership and homiletics. Pastor Sutton believes the body of Christ should be equipped to display immense acts of love and empowered in every aspect of the kingdom. His mission is to restore hope in a hard place through preaching and teaching God’s Word. His passion is winning the lost and training them to become disciples while empowering them to make disciples. He is supported by his loving wife of 25 years, Dr. Samella J. Sutton, and is a devoted father to his son, Torrey.
Here are some events to know about –
Sow Community Church is doing a Christmas Pop Up Shop this Saturday (12/18).
Got stuff happening you want help spreading the word on? Let us know!
Here’s something else to know about – When disasters strike (like the recent tornadoes) people from our churches are usually the first ones on the ground through organizations like Send Relief, the new compassion ministry for Southern Baptists at home and around the world. If you’re still looking for Christmas gifts, consider giving something from the Send Relief catalog. And as you think of ways to serve your neighborhood in the New Year consider how Send Relief might be able to help.
We’re excited to keep serving you in 2022 as your Zone Consultants catalyzing connections, cohorts, consultations, and coaching.
And the biggest Christmas gift you could give us is to PLEASE make sure you’ve filled out your ACP ASAP! J Contact us with any questions!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,
