Christian Education
Please join us Sunday mornings at 9:30am for our Sunday Biblical teaching in the sanctuary for all ages. This month we begin our study of “The Book of 2nd Corinthians” by Rich Villodas. Authentic Christianity has never been about how put together we seem to be. It’s always been about how God works powerfully through our shortcomings to accomplish his purpose for us. In this eight-week series, Pastor Rich Villodas describes how opening ourselves up in genuine relationships with others invite the power of Jesus to shine through our weakness.

Tuesday Bible study is offered at 11:00am and 6:00pm. We are continuing our study of the book “Romans”.  We’ve reserved a seat just for you.

Mother’s Day 
Mothers are special because they are always there when needed, and they are willing to let go even when it hurts. Mothers are special because they care enough to say no when needed. Mothers are special because they always welcome you with an open heart and open arms, and they love unconditionally. Isaiah 66:13 says, “For this is what the Lord says, as a mother comforts her son, so I will comfort you”. Please mark your calendars for May 11th; which just happens to be Mother’s Day, the 2nd Sunday in May. Invite your family and friends to come Worship with you.

Our next WOW fellowship is scheduled for Saturday, May 18, 2024, from 10:00am to 2:00pm. Our theme is “Pink Rain.” The goal for the conference is to empower, uplift, and let all women know they can give their burdens to God, as we learn to Focus on the shelter of God’s love and care for us from the “rain” of the storms in our lives,

Tithe & Offering

Matthew 6:19-21 says, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

When the Bible talks about it being more blessed to give than receive, I couldn’t agree more. From thinking about the person and picking out the item to wrapping it and finally seeing the person’s reaction when they open it, the whole process is energizing for me and it helps me prioritize what is important.

3 THINGS THAT HAPPEN BY PRIORITIZING GIVING TO GOD’S KINGDOM

Our hearts change – When giving to God’s Kingdom becomes a priority, something amazing happens—our hearts begin to change. The importance of this world begins to lessen as we raise our gaze to see what God is doing and invest in it.

We do something God loves – God loves it when we give cheerfully to His purposes. It is an act of trust and obedience that shows what our hearts treasure… and that blesses God.

We get to join God in what He’s doing – “Look for where God is at work and join Him in it.” When giving to God’s kingdom becomes a priority, this is a tangible opportunity to do just that.

There are several ways to give your tithe and offering!

  1. Online at sbw.center,
  2. Text SBWC and the gift amount to 73256),
  3. Givelify App,
  4. the church drop slot
  5. or by mail to:  414 Silver Road, 34472. Remember, God love a cheerful giver.

On behalf of Pastor Garner and our SBWC family, we pray that God will bless you mightily in all areas of your life. Please know that if you are without a church home and would like to be united with other believers in Jesus Christ, we have a place right here for you.

And as a little reminder, if you are watching via YouTube or Facebook, please help spread the gospel by subscribing to, liking, and sharing this video with your friends and family.

Have a blessed day in the Lord!

 

December 2023

Greetings in Jesus’ name, and welcome to the m

onth of giving!

This is the time of year when we turn our attention to the birth of our savior,

the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is the “Prince of Peace,” and God bestows peace upon his people, as in the Psalms.

Psalms 9:9-10: “The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.”

As we celebrate the Lord’s birthday this month with renewed hope and peace in our hearts, we also want to embrace one another with peace and joy.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

December’s Birthdays & Anniversaries

Happy Birthday to all of our members and friends who are blessed enough to be born during this beautiful time of giving. And happy anniversary to all celebrating this month. We pray for God’s continued blessings and happiness on these special occasions for many more years to come.

Happy birthday and anniversary  to you all!

Christian Education

God gives his best gifts to us in unexpected ways. The Christmas season is a reminder of the gift that God gives to us through his son Jesus. Please join us Sunday mornings at 9:30 a.m. for our Sunday Biblical teaching in the sanctuary for all ages. Our lesson this month is “The Unexpected” by Jason Turner.

We will continue our Tuesday Bible study this month titled “Unashamed” by Lecrae at 11:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. We hope to see you here.

Teaching young people how to grow in their relationship with Christ and thrive in their daily lives will help them mature and become adults who are confident in their faith.

Parents, our SBWC Youth Ministry is in session every Tuesday at 6 p.m. Please contact Sister Alice Reid for more information.

Senior Social

Being socially involved and active gives people a sense of belonging that provides added health benefits. Staying socially active is especially important for adults, who can sometimes become lonely and isolated. It can also improve emotional, intellectual, and physical wellness.

The senior adult ministry meets on the 3rd Wednesday of every month from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., which will be on December 20th. So please mark your calendars so that you can take part in some great activities and fellowship.

Women’s Ministry

The Women’s ministry will meet on Saturday, December 16th, at 11:30 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall. All ladies, 18 and up, are invited to attend. Please see the sign-up sheet in the foyer for our potluck lunch. And all women who want to take part in the Secret Santa drawing, please see Lady Garner after service today.

Holiday Office Schedule

Due to the holiday season, the church office will be closed for business from December 24th through January 2nd.

Tithe & Offering

The main principle behind tithing and giving is the fact that what we do with our money shows where our heart is.  The tithe is the Lord’s way of asking us to show our love. Giving God a percentage of our earnings shows that we put our love for him before our need for money.

There are several ways to give:

  1. online at sbw.center,
  2. Text SBWC and the gift amount to 73256.
  3. Givelify App, the church drop slot
  4. or by mail to 414 Silver Road, 34472.

God loves a cheerful giver.

Can Good Collection Drive

Hunger is a health issue, and it’s the reason why people struggling with food insecurity need help with healthy food. Beginning this month, I am asking the family and friends of Shores Baptist to donate five canned goods a month to help offset the cost of feeding our community.

Our goal is to collect 6,000 canned goods this year.

What types of items are needed? I’m glad you asked.

Fruits: canned fruit (in its own juice), dried fruit, 100% fruit juice. Canned vegetables, 100% vegetable juice, spaghetti sauce Rice, pasta, crackers, ready-to-eat cereal, and oatmeal Canned meat or poultry, canned tuna or salmon, canned or dried beans and peas, peanut butter beef stew, canned soup, and chili.

To Donate:

Drop your items off in the boxes in the foyer weekly or monthly, and they will be counted.

A weekly total will be shared with the congregation so that we will know if we are meeting our monthly goal of 500 can goods.

So SBWC, I hope you are pumped up and ready to serve, because the time has now come that we are being called upon !

God bless you.

On behalf of Pastor Garner and the SBWC family, we would like to thank you for worshipping with us today.

And, if you are watching via YouTube or Facebook, please help spread the gospel by subscribing to, liking, and sharing this video with your friends and family.

Have a blessed day in the Lord!

SBWC Safety Protocols
The wearing of a mask is still mandatory within the sanctuary at Shores Baptist Worship Center . We have several groups of people with health conditions that put them at higher risk of becoming severely ill if they contract COVID-19. Wearing a medical face mask protects you and them against infection.  The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that face masks are not harmful. They do not cause a lack of oxygen or carbon dioxide poisoning. We understand the wearing a mask may sometimes be a little uncomfortable for some, so please be sure to wear one that fits you well. Thank you for complying with this request.

Veterans Day
Veterans Day is a day to honor those who served in the military, and those who have been blessed to return home. America’s veterans should be honored every day of the year, but Friday, November 11th is a national day to recognize the sacrifices of our nation’s heroes. If you know someone who has served or is still serving, take a moment to tell them THANK YOU!

Thanksgiving
Please mark your calendars for November 24, 2022. The Lord has blessed Shores Baptist Worship Center to pass out 100 thanksgiving meals again this year on Thanksgiving day from 1:00 to 3:00pm.  Sign-up forms are located in the foyer. All forms must be returned by next Sunday November 13, 2022, to Lady Garner, Sister Claudia or the Food Pantry between the hours of 11am-3pm.

Women of Worth

Attention all ladies! SBWC Women of Worth will be joining forces with Women add Value (hosted by Minister Marisel Santana) for a Global Summit entitled: The Seven Mountains of Social Influence. December 16 & 17, 2022.

Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade developed a God-given, world changing strategy. His mandate was to bring godly change to a nation by reaching its seven spheres or mountains of social influence: which are religion, family, education, government, media, arts, entertainment, and businesses. He concluded that in order to truly transform any nation with the gospel of Jesus Christ, these seven facets of society must be reached. So, please be on the look out for more information concerning this 2-day conference.

Tithe & Offering
The main principle behind tithing and giving is the fact that what we do with our money shows where our heart is. Matthew 6:21 says “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” When we are able to give 10% or more of our income instead of keeping that money for ourselves, it shows that our heart isn’t tied to our money and that we love God’s commandments more than our money.

There are several ways to give:
1. Online at sbw.center
2. Text Giving (SBWC and the gift amount to 73256),
3. Givelify
4. Church drop slot: SBWC, 414 Silver Road, Ocala, FL 34472
5. By mail: SBWC, 414 Silver Road, Ocala, FL 34472

Food Pantry

The Food Pantry is open for distribution. We are so blessed to be able to help individuals in need through this feeding ministry. The pantry will be open for distribution on Thursdays from 11:00am – 3:00pm.

How can you help? I’m glad you asked.

We need your help with donations of canned goods and we are still in need of volunteers to help distribute on Thursday’s. Please see Lady Melissa Garner or Minister Grace Malcolm.

Christian Education

Sunday School is at 9:00am in the Main Sanctuary for all ages.

Bible Study is Tuesday, 11:00am and 6:00pm.
Our new series is titled ‘Grace is Greater”.  We are excited about coming back together to learn and to grow through the teaching of God’s written Word.

New Believer’s/Members class (Part 1) will be held on
Wednesdays at 5:30pm for six weeks beginning August 10, 2022.
All new members are required to attend.

Soul Winning Class

Minister Franklin Mayfield will continue his teaching on “Soul Winning” here at SBWC.  Saturday, August 13 at 10:00am.  (The sign-up sheets are located in the foyer).

In Biblical times, a disciple referred to anyone studying under, and trying to emulate, a valued teacher. To modern day Christians, it means a follower of Christ who leads by following his example.

In John 13:34-35, Jesus says “Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Discipleship is a process of not only holding onto your faith but growing in it so that you may lead others toward Christ by your example of love.

Women of Worth

Our Women of Worth fellowship is scheduled for Saturday, September 10, from 10:00am -2:00pm.

1 Peter 5:8 says, “be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour”.

Pastor Appreciation Month

October has long been recognized worldwide as Pastor Appreciation Month. The call to honor our church leaders’ contributions can be traced back to the Apostle Paul. In establishing the first Christian churches, Paul advised the congregation in (1 Timothy 5:17) to give “double honor” to the elders of the church who managed the affairs of the church well, “especially those whose work is preaching and teaching”.

So, when we consider all that our Pastor does for us, it becomes clear how important it is to celebrate and uplift him.

This concludes October 2021 Announcements.
