Ministries and Activities
Encouraging Annie Annie Blackburn feels that God has called her to visit, write cards, make phone calls, etc. to encourage nursing home and hospital patients, homebound members, sick or down-trodden members, and people in our community who need encouragement.

Women of Focus WOF is a ministry which is led by many volunteers who invite the women of our church and community to quarterly gatherings with these purposes: 1. to entreat women to worship through prayer, praise, and study; 2. to evangelize women by presenting the Word of God; 3. to equip women for service in ministry and missions through Bible studies, conferences, special events, mission activities, and ministries; 4. to encourage women through fellowship.
Women’s Missionary Union WMU is an auxiliary of the Southern Baptist Convention that seeks to educate and involve women, girls, and preschoolers in the cause of Christian missions. Loris First Baptist supports many local, state, and world-wide mission projects and missionaries around the world under the leadership of Babb Fowler.
Women’s Newsletter Jan Vescovi will produce a monthly newsletter that will inform women of new and on-going ministries and activities in the church and community.
This church has a history of women offering their talents and time to serve God in countless ways. If He is calling you to participate in one of these or to establish a new ministry, the church is eager to support you in your service.

NEW MINISTRY to LIFEGUARDS The WMU and Men for Christ are participating in a summer lifeguard supper ministry, coordinated by Waccamaw Baptist Association. Roger Cox and Ronnie Todd prepared a delicious barbeque meal with all the trimmings. Volunteers from our church delivered, served, and ministered to approximately 140 lifeguards at Myrtle Beach First Baptist gymnasium this past Tuesday. Our Local Missions Committee was generous in helping with funding. I want to thank all the individuals who have helped make this new ministry event possible. As our student summer missionaries continue their contacts with the lifeguards throughout the season, let us all pray that seeds will be sown for harvest unto the Lord. –Babb Fowler WMU Director– |
