Where Will I Spend Eternity? Your relationship to Jesus Christ is central to the answer to that question. Our Dilemma: We are, by nature, sinners who stand guilty and condemned before our Creator and Judge. In our thoughts and actions, we have disobeyed His perfect standards. We are sinners (Romans 3:10, 23). Our Inability: We are helpless to save ourselves. Forgiveness is a gift to be received, not a reward that can be earned. We need a Saviour (Ephesians 2:8-9). Our Saviour: Because of His love for us, God provided salvation through His Son, Jesus. He became a member of the human family, lived without sin, and died on the cross to pay for our sins. Jesus is the Saviour (Romans 5:8; John 3:16). Our Response: Salvation is an individual matter and requires a personal response on the part of anyone that wants to be saved. All who acknowledge their sin and place their trust in Christ are adopted as God’s children (Romans 10:9, 13).

Missions Is Possible Missionary Conference October 24-25, 2009 Take advantage of the opportunity to meet our missionary and go soul winning from 2:00-3:30 PM. Our International Dinner will be served on Saturday, October 24, at 5 PM. After the dinner we will watch a missionary DVD, and be challenged to give to the missionary program of the church. On Sunday AM, we will collect your Faith Promise Missions pledges. Ed & Esther Schaming and Mike & Bridget Weleski are organizing the Sat. dinner.

Ladies’ Conference Hammond, Indiana October 21-23 The ladies who have registered for the International Ladies’ Conference need to pay the remaining balance of $100 by Sunday, October 18. Ladies need to arrive at the church early on Wednesday so that they can be loaded and leaving the church at 8 AM. This will allow you time to travel, eat and prepare before the service at 6 PM. Your lodging will be at the Hampton Inn & Suites of Munster, Indiana. This is just minutes from the First Baptist Church of Hammond. Ladies will return to the church on Friday around midnight.

Please show respect by turning off all electronic devices (PDA’s, cell phones) and refrain from text messaging during the church services.
