Special Music for the week:
Get ready, kids — it’s time for Kid’s Revival! This special revival is packed with Bible stories, hands-on fun, music, outdoor activity and food (of course)!
Each night we’ll dig into a Bible story all about food and how God provides for His people:
- 🌾 God Provides Manna & Quail
- 🍶 Elijah, the Widow, & the Endless Oil
- 🥗 Daniel & Friends Eating the Good Stuff
- 🐟🍞 Jesus Feeds the 5,000 Plus
- 🎣 Jesus Cooks the Catch of the Day
Kids will get to help make a snack that ties into each night’s lesson, plus enjoy music, games, and outdoor activities. And don’t miss Wednesday night — we’re making homemade ice cream! 🍦
A heartfelt “thank you” goes out to every single person who has volunteered their time and gifts in the ministries of Clifford Baptist Church this past year! From the devoted teachers to the dedicated committee members and everyone in between, you are the backbone of the church’s work, and it couldn’t be done without you. To show appreciation and enjoy some fellowship together, the church invites you to a special Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon in the Social Hall immediately following worship on Sunday, Aug. 16th. The church truly values all that you do and we are grateful to have you as part of the Clifford Baptist Church Family. Please rsvp by Aug. 9th.

Children’s Christmas Program Kick-Off!
We are excited to announce that the children will have an opportunity to participate in another Christmas play this year, and we would like to invite all children and middle schoolers going into 1st through 8th grade to come join us for a Kick-Off Party on Wednesday night, August 19 at 6:45 in the Social Hall. We will also have a quick parent meeting at 6:45-6:50 that evening to go over more information on the program.
The Christmas program does have many opportunities for the children to sing solos and to have speaking parts. If your child is interested in doing a solo or would like to have an acting part, we will hold auditions prior to the Kick-Off on the following Wednesday nights: July 22 & 29, and August 5 (only from 6:45-7 p.m.) & 12.
This is such a wonderful opportunity for the children to be creative in worship for the upcoming Christmas season, and we look forward to having your child join us! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Mary Mays at the number or email listed on the graphic.
