FBC & NSBC Teams Meet Wednesday, Feb. 27
In November of 2018, twenty-two men and women from First Baptist Church and Nineteenth Street Baptist Church met for prayer, conversation and the planning of joint ventures between our two churches in the areas of worship, social & racial justice, and the writing of a new, combined history. On Wednesday evening, February 27, FBCDC hosted supper and the second meeting.
The three teams are:
• Worship: Leslie Alford & Kenyatta Hobson, co-leaders
• Social & Racial Justice: Kate Campbell, Rhonda Glaude & Cheryl Coleman Hall, co-leaders
• History: Janice Osborn & Louise White, co-leaders
New Music CD--Unique and Sacred: Original Compositions and Arrangements by Dr. Lon Schreiber with Debbi Miller, Soprano
Beginning this Sunday (3/3), we are pleased to make available for purchase a new music CD, Unique and Sacred. Dr. Lon Schreiber has been writing sacred music for more than 60 years and soprano Debbi Miller has long cherished the dream of recording his soprano solo pieces to preserve that portion of his beautiful body of work for posterity. Together they realized this dream last August, recording here in the sanctuary of FBC, and creating a CD of eight inspirational songs. Lon's specialty is to use very familiar texts and/or melodies, and re-imagine them in his own unique style. Cost: $10. All proceeds will benefit the National Center for Children and Families (NCCF) which creates healthy living environments for vulnerable children, youth and families. CDs may be purchased in the Narthex after worship, in Fellowship Hall during the potluck, and here

Ash Wednesday is March 6
“Remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return” (Gen. 3:19). For nearly a thousand years, these words have been spoken to believers as the sign of the cross is traced on their foreheads with ashes, a sign of our mortality and repentance. Join us March 6th at 7pm for the Ash Wednesday worship service (Dinner at 6pm, catered by Chef Laval). Can’t make it to the evening service? Pastor Alyssa will offer ashes on the front steps of the church (16th Street) that morning from 8am until 10am.
