Today was a very special day at Emmanuel Baptist Church as we hosted our first-ever, "Local Missions Fair." Since our 2010 theme is "Reach Your Street," we are doing all we can to help connect our church family with opportunities for service and evangelism across our community. Eight different local ministries were invited in to promote their ministry from the pulpit and also via display booths that were setup in our main lobby. At the end of the day, many of our folks had signed up as volunteers and people were connected with ministries for which they were wired.
The ministries we featured today were:
Baptist Collegiate Ministry (BCM) of Coker College
Carolina Family Planning Centers (Pro-life, crisis pregnancy intervention)
Christmas in April (Repairing homes for the elderly)
Free Medical Clinics (Medical assistance)
Hartsville Interfaith Ministries (Benevolence assistance)
Hospice (Volunteer recruiting for Life Care Hospice)
Raceway Ministries (Ministry at the Darlington Speedway)
Recovery Ministries (Support for those overcoming addictions)
