The office will be closed Thursday and Friday for Thanksgiving. We will have our regular Wednesday prayer and Bible Study, but it will begin at 6:30, instead of 7.
The church elected a search committee to find a Minister of Music and Youth in a special business meeting Sunday evening. Pray for the committee as they find God’s man for our church.

Sunday evening, we said “farewell” to the Willis family as they left to serve with the Oklahoma Baptist Homes for Children in Owasso. We presented them with a reception of cake and ice cream and a gift with a card signed by all.
We will certainly miss them all.
May God bless you as you continue to serve Him. We’ll keep you in our prayers!
Yesterday morning, Brian Willis announced his resignation as Minister of Music from Immanuel Southern Baptist Church. Brian and Kelly have been offered the ministry opportunity to be house parents at the Oklahoma Baptist Homes for Childrenin Owasso, OK. The resignation is effective November 11.
Let’s all be in prayer for the Willis family as they transition into this new lifestyle ministry that will effect the lives of so many children.
God bless you, Brian, Kelly, Bo, Autumn, and Preston!
We are scheduling a work day for this coming Saturday to replace burned out florescent bulbs in the sanctuary, repair some furnaces, and some additional work on the parsonage.
All who are able to help out would be appreciated.
We will be replacing the burned out bulbs in the sanctuary chandeliers the following Saturday. We will need a couple of men to help then as well.
(I guess this is when we’ll find out “how many Baptists it DOES take to change a light bulb”, huh?)
As of today, we have secured immanuelsouthern.com as our new web address! You can type: immanuelsouthern.com or www.immanuelsouthern.com; either works!
Our new church email address is info@immanuelsouthern.com.

Immanuel Baptist Church welcomes new members, Dee & Marty Berrhyhill, Sam Richardson, and Cassie Bartell into our fellowship! We pray that you will be blessed here, so that you can be a blessing to others!
If you missed Sunday evening, then you don’t know about two things coming up this week. First, on Wednesday evening, there will be a brief called business meeting to discuss insurance for the church vans. This will be immediately following our prayer and study. Second, we will have our monthly breakfast fellowship this next Saturday at 8:00 am. I’ll be making pancakes. So, show up with a hearty appetite and we’ll have a great time!
