Many of our members are involved with the local missions ministry of Atlanta Mission.
It is a great organization with a huge vision to end homelessness in Atlanta. There is a men's s
helter, and a women and children's shelter. Here at first Baptist Atlanta, you can be a host to a woman w ho comes to First Bapti st Atlanta every first Sunday of the month called First Sunday for Sisters. The women are shuttled in fro m My Sister's House, the women's and children's shelter of the Atlan ta Mission. They are escorted into the Worship Center to hear the sermo n , then escorted to Sunday School, and have lunch and fellowship and prayer afterwards. On the third Sunday of the month the same happens with the men in a ministry called Brothers of Encouragement. Won't you consider taking the opportunity in becoming a host or hostess for one of these ongoing monthly events? You can also serve on any of the two campuses of the Atlanta Mission, serving dinners, or taking care of children during the Chapel services. You'll be glad you did knowing that you had a part in this ministry of en couragement, and maybe take part in helping plant and water the gospel. There are also many other activities throughout the year, such as the warm coat drive, summer suit drive, diaper drive, and Sister Tea For You and Me. Even if you can't get involved, you can simply click on the Atlanta Mission logo and find out more of thatlLocal missions organization. You may even wish to donate. Do what you can, where you can, the best you can. You'll be glad you did. For more information please contact Judy Schrock at
