Small group Bible Studies
Our small group Bible studies start at 5:30 pm on Sunday nights and finish at around 7:00 pm. We are just staring Max Lucado's "Out Live Your Life" study and invite you to join us. Please come join us or call the church for more information. There is also DESTINATION UNKNOWN youth activity each Sunday night. We also have something for the children during the Bible study time.
God is Awesome. We now are a debt free church. God blessed us with an anonymous donor outside our church who paid off our church debt. We now have more resources to do God's work. Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. He's got something big planned for us. I can't wait to see what it is. We had our mortgage burning service Sunday November 21st 2010 with Dr. Jim Hamilton our Executive Director of the Dakota Baptist convention along with Garvon Golden, Gary Hailer & their wives from our regional Dakota team. We ended with a great time of food & fellowship.
We had a community chili cook off here at our church on Sunday March 27, 2011. There were prizes given away in 3 different categories. Chili like mom made, You call that chili(non traditional like chicken etc and of course the inferno. Tony Hunter was a winner as well as Brenda Werlinger & Lora Counts. Fun was had by all and some good eats too.
Isn't it great to know God still reigns? As we look forward to this year we reflect on the many people drawn to our Lord. Never before have so many people accross our great nation been searching for a Savior. People from ages 6 to 75 are coming to the Lord. If you don't know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior come join us & we'll tell you how. Time is short come to Christ today, recieve Him as Lord and get baptized and join a great fellowship. We are getting ready for another baptism soon. We had 5 a few weeks ago in November and are looking forward to another couple in a few Sundays. We are excited at what God is doing?
We had a great time putting the church float together last year. We have thought about it for a while but finally put some action to the plan. I must say though BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. It was 9 degrees.
We also had our annual Christmas program on Dec. 11, 2011with 20 of our Whitewood area kids singing & acting. We had 75 in attendance to see about the angels role in the birth of our Lord.The were the Christmas Hang ups. It was very cute.
We had a great hayride & caroling going on Dec. 15, 2011 a cold wed night. There were 50 of us driving around town on some hay barrells in Jim's flatbed trailer. We then had hot cocoa but didn't get the roasted marshmellows over the fire. Ahhhh.... for a later date.
Summer was great and so was the Sturgis Rally evangelism, Vacation Bible School & our Softball/ baseball sports camp.. We are excited about all that God did this summer. Fall is here and new and exciting things are planned. We saw 483 people come to know the Lord thru the Sturgis Bike Rally given away held by the Dakota Baptist Convention. We had 96 in attendance for VBS and we saw an amazing outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
