Women's Bible Study "Trustworthy"
2nd & 4th Wednesday | 9:00am |
Room A-104
When hard times come and it seems God is deviating from the plan we assume our life should follow, we’re more likely to want to tame God, not trust Him. Through this study, you'll explore the kings of the Old Testament and discover God alone is worthy of our trust and we can rest in Him. Join us! Led by Tallie Mabray. Cost $16.00.

Fall Food Roundup: Since the early 1900’s Louisiana Baptist have been so generous to share their groceries with the boys and girls God has placed in the care of the Children’s Home. We are grateful! The 2020 Fall Food Roundup is critical to helping us meet this basic need for our children. Your sharing literally helps to feed our family here at the Children’s Home for the entire year! You may also contribute money. The money received will be used to purchase milk, bread, eggs, meat and fresh produce needed throughout the year. No gallon size cans please! The last day for donating is Sunday, October 4th. Please pick up the needs list in the Main Worship Center Commons area.

JUSTIN AND ANNE NKUNDABAGENZI
KIGALI, RWANDA
God is the Father of the Fatherless. God has a special place in His heart for the orphan. In fact, the Bible says He is a father to them. He loves, cherishes, protects and values His children.
Children, without a supportive and loving father have difficulty understanding the boundless love and care their Heavenly Father holds for His children. How can you show this love to these fatherless children? When we invite Christ into our hearts, we are called to become more like him.
God takes special notice of the fatherless. He does not overlook their cries.
North Monroe gives to support the needs of 45 orphans in Rwanda. During this time of COVID-19, the care has increased to help provide daily food. They accept your help with great appreciation and joy.

These children, just like your children, need clothes & shoes. We are praying now for God to provide. If you would like to give, 100% of offerings to North Monroe Baptist Church specifying International Missions COVID Relief. The money you give makes a difference.
In December, Anne and Justin hold a Christmas Party for the Children at the Training Center. It is a very special time. We helped provide last year, and our desire is to help again this year. This year, we would like to include a picture Bible for each of the children as well as other items. God’s word is powerful and life changing.
Here is a video from Justin and many photos. Please take a moment to pray over this ministry. Pray for the caretakers of these children. Pray that all will come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord.
God’s Word is powerful, when He speaks of His love for the fatherless.
A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. — Psalm 68:5
|
|
But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless. — Psalm 10:14
The LORD watches over the foreigner and sustains the fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked. — Psalm 146:9

Thanks for all you do in the name of Jesus Christ, North Monroe.
