P.s. Thanks @sendrelief for resources for moments like these. We are better together. #GreatCommissionBaptists

[FBC Westwego @FirstWego]

In moments like these, the church MUST remember that prayer is not a last resort... it's one of the primary means by which the God of the universe chooses to commune with His people. He hears our prayers. Let's commit to #PrayForUkraine.

[FBC Westwego @FirstWego]

In the following tweet, we've listed two @sendrelief links. The first is a link to financially support our SBC relief efforts in Ukraine and the other is a link to a prayer guide. Please make use of these resources as we seek to glorify God in even these heartbreaking moments.

You’re invited to our Annual Celebration of the Arts taking place 6pm Sunday. God is the Greatest of all Creators & Chief Artist of the universe & we enjoying gathering to celebrate the communicable attribute of creativity as we mirror his creativity through visual & musical art.

Join us Sunday morning at 10:30 am as we consider the crowds that followed Jesus and learn the names of the 12 men Jesus called to follow him. Seriously, we’re gonna memorize their names together. “TikTok and the Twelve” on Tap.

I’m looking forward to speaking to our local BCM kiddos tonight. We have Tulane, Loyola, Delgado, UNO & Leavell College students who attend @FirstWego & we love our college students!!! Big thanks to Gary Mire & Ditali’s Italian Cafe for providing dinner.

Just welcomed an AL DR chainsaw unit to our facilities to be housed for the next few days. As this & other DR teams begin to make their way into our community let’s pray for 1) safety on the job, 2) opportunities for gospel conversations & 3) the heart of Christ to be shown…

[FBC Westwego @FirstWego]

We will do our best to get it up at both our church website as well as on our Facebook and YouTube pages. We will attempt to have those videos up by 9 am but please be patient with us. We’re not even sure if we will be able to upload them yet.

From Pastor @_JayAdkins ...

I want to let you know that we, of course, will not have our normal worship service tomorrow (Sep 5th). I am also canceling the following week's service (Sep 12th).

[FBC Westwego @FirstWego]

I know that we are supposed to have power by the 8th but I figure one more week off will allow others to get some work done around their home if you are back by then. With those cancellations, I intend to post a short devotional video tomorrow and then again next Sunday.
