Great News from Sand Lake Baptist!
Greetings to all of our wonderful friends throughout our community. We are excited to announce that major renovations have taken place, both to our website, and FaceBook pages! The biggest change is that you can now listen to past audio sermons. Virtually all of the 2023 sermons are available and we will do our best to keep them up-to-date moving forward.
We are also looking ahead toward a few community events for this Fall season. As soon as we have some final details, official announcements will be made on our social networks and in future articles.
Bible Study for “The Case for Christ” is going well and the group is getting larger each week! This series is a little more than halfway through, but another series is in the works; so keep a look out for that information as it becomes available. We only have two more weeks of “The Case for Christ”, which is held in the Fellowship Hall on Thursdays at 6 PM. All are welcome and there is no cost!
You are also invited to visit us on Sunday at 11 AM as we welcome Pastor Victor Harris, who will be presenting a special message. We hope to see you there!
God bless, Deacon Russ
