A Moment with the Pastor<br />
Our 2013 <strong>Church</strong> Budget will be voted on this next Sunday morning. The Finance<br />
Committee and <strong>Church</strong> Staff have worked together to prioritize ministry<br />
needs. We feel the proposed budget is a challenge, but we are very capable in giving<br />
this amount in 2013. You have been very faithful in your giving this year. We will<br />
give more than $2.8 million to our current budget.<br />
Don’t forget your Operation Christmas Child she boxes this Sunday. Bring your boxes to the Worship<br />
Center foyer. I’m looking forward to seeing what God is going to do through you.<br />
VeggieTales: Live! is almost here. Our children are so excited that we are hosting this performance.<br />
We are the only venue in all Alabama this year for this event. Thank you Julie Parmer, Megan<br />
Woodham and Carter Reeves for your leadership in this ministry.<br />

P.S. Next week the Alabama <strong>Baptist</strong> State Convention will be meeting in Montgomery on <strong>November</strong> 13<br />
and 14. Vaughn Forest <strong>Baptist</strong> <strong>Church</strong> is hosting this event. As Second Vice President of the convention<br />
I will be busy with meetings on Monday as well as the convention days. If your schedule permits, you are<br />
welcome to join us any time on Tuesday and Wednesday morning.<br />

VeggieTales:LIVE! Is coming this Sunday evening at 6:00 p.m. in our worship center. Tickets are<br />
still available, but don’t delay – they are going fast. The VeggieTales cast and crew will arrive Sunday<br />
morning with a large bus and an eighteen wheel tractor-trailer. We will have to reserve some parking<br />
slots for these large vehicles but no handicapped, senior adult or guest parking will be impacted. If you<br />
see traffic cones in a series of parking spaces, please do not remove them.<br />
We had a great response to our survey for volunteers to help with small projects around the<br />
church campus. Our Building and Grounds committee will line up some volunteer-friendly projects over<br />
the next year and enlist help from those who have volunteered according to the skills they indicated. We<br />
are blessed with so many in our church family who are willing to serve in a variety of ways.<br />

We would like to say a big Thank You to all who volunteered to help<br />
with Fall Festival and made it such a successful event. We absolutely<br />
could not pull off an event of this size without the support of so<br />
many wonderful church members. These volunteers really demonstrated<br />
what it means to serve both our church and our community.<br />
Thank you again for all you did for this event and for your continued<br />
support of the Preschool and Children's Ministries.<br />
Blessings,<br />
Julie and Megan
