3 for 30

Over the past few months, Free Will Baptist agency directors and state promotional leaders have been discussing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to our denomination. As a result, they have developed the 3 for 30 plan, which identifies three important areas we can work toward during this decade. Send feedback and suggestions to questions@nafwb.org.

Impact Hometown

Impact Hometown is right around the corner. As you consider how your church can impact its community, think about preparing for the inevitable disasters we experience from time to time. Later this week, the Better Together Podcast will feature an interview with Todd Taylor, manager of U.S. Disaster Relief for Samaritan’s Purse.

Also, be on the lookout for next week’s Better Together Podcast with Gary Curry for other ways to minister to the community. Don’t forget to take pictures of your Impact Hometown activities and send those to questions@nafwb.org.
