Dr. Doug McCarth will be in the pulpit as our official Transitional Interim Pastor. After last Sunday's service he was confirmed as the new Interim Pastor for Unity Baptist Church. He and his wife Greta were called to serve here at Unity and they are very excited to be here. Dr. McCarth will be preaching from Matthew 9:36 -38 and will asking us, "Do You See It?" Dr. Doug will be challenging each of us on whether we have a vision for the salvation of our family, friends, neighbors and for that matter all of Coweta County and the surrounding areas We are very excited to have Dr. Doug and his wife here and look to hearing what God has given him to deliver to us. Come and worship with us as Rob Langer and the Praise team lead us to worship in preparation for the message that God has laid on Dr. Doug's heart to bring to us. Looking forward to seeing you all at 10:45, Sunday, January 17, 2021.
Wendy Moore, our Children's Minister, is so excited to be able to start Wednesday night activities for our Children. She has put together an amazing program that will help your children learn and grow in the Word and in Jesus. Her and her group of dedicated and loving volunteers are looking forward to welcoming your children to this new and fun-filled Wednesday night activity. Please bring your children to Unity Baptist on Wednesday nights and let them enjoy growing in their walk with Jesus.
Our Children's Minister, Wendy Moore, will put links to new videos each week for you and your children to view and enjoy. There are new videos up this week, December 6, 2020. Make sure you give your children a chance to see these newly selected videos. These are videos from various places on the web that she has reviewed and approved. She has categorized the videos by age group and we have listed them in the Kids and Youth Section of the web page. CLICK ON THE BUTTON BELOW and it will take you to the Kids and Youth page which has the videos listed in age group order. Have fun watching with the children in your life.
We will have hand sanitizer available, will wash hands, and social distance the best we can. Our goal is to share Jesus with these little ones and to keep everyone healthy. For the safety of everyone, leaders will wear a mask while in the lobby and hallways and in close proximity to the children.
Please keep in mind to social distance in the foyer while checking your child in. To help social distance, please enter through the doors on the right side (facing the building) and exit through the left side doors (facing the building, doors with the ramp). We will have signs to guide you
On Sunday, January 3, 2021 Dr. Doug McCart was invited to fill the pulpit as the leading candidate to fill the position of Interim Pastor. After delivering his message and short meeting of the church he was unanimously called to begin as our Interim Pastor starting on Sunday, January 10, 2021. This is an exciting time for Unity Baptist Church and we look forward to what God has in store for us through Dr. Doug. Welcome to Unity Baptist Church Dr. Doug McCart and family.
We think most of us thought we would be on the downhill side of the Corinavirus by this time; however, it is still running strong! This means we will have to continue following the directives from the CDC and the governor's office, Which means we will not be starting Sunday School back as we desired, and at this time we are not sure when we will be starting back. But it will be as soon as possible.
Also, this means that the Children's Ministry area is very limited as to what it can do in a person-to-person environment. A survey has been sent to Children Ministry workers and to the families of our children to assess their feelings and address their concerns. It is possible, we will be starting Children's Church on Sunday mornings in the near future as our first step. Please pray for Wendy as she is doing all she can to minister to our children with video ministry and lessons that can be found here on our website.
Finally, we will have to continue practicing Social Distancing and following other guidelines to help keep everyone healthy inasmuch as possible. In order to do this, we are instituting the following step to keep the flow of traffic moving from the sanctuary to the outside of the building. Donny and Allison will be standing outside the front doors under the portico to greet and meet folks. We encourage everyone to move from the Worship Center to the portico as quickly as feasible once the service has ended. This will help maintain the social distancing directive given from the Governor’s office and the CDC. Once outside we can huddle up and talk all we want to.
Also, we are suggesting everyone wear a mask when coming in and out of the Worship Center. Once you are seated you may remove your mask. However, this is voluntary, and it is left up to each individual to decide whether to wear a mask or not. As for the staff, we have been directed to set a good example by wearing a mask in and out of the building. We do hope you understand.
We want to personally thank you on behalf of all church leadership in observing such guidelines. Please keep everyone in your prayers, especially church leaders. All the above was approved unanimously by the Deacons, Church Council, and Staff. God bless and we hope to see you Sunday.
