Connections Class Starts This Week | Sundays, Oct. 19-Nov. 16 | 9:45-10:45 a.m. | room 301 Greg Duncan leads this five-week class designed for new members and those who are new to our congregation. Not only will you explore more about who 2BC is as a faith community and how you as an individual can best connect, but you’ll also be able to examine your own giftedness and perhaps discover new opportunities for personal growth and ministry here at Second Baptist. It’s not too late to join if you’d like to take part! Reserve a spot by contacting Maggie Henderson at mhenderson@2bcliberty.org or 816-781-2324.

Jason will review the key initiatives and ongoing budget commitments and they will answer any questions you may have on the proposed ministry plan budget for the next 24 month period. Bring your questions and join us so you’ll be prepared for the Church Conference vote on Sunday, November, 2.
GaP 3.0 Preview | Oct. 29 | 6:30 p.m. A Voice for the Voiceless Jesus always advocated for the powerless
and disadvantaged. As His disciples, how do we follow His example in the world today? What are issues in our world that Jesus would speak to through us? Our panel will explore some of their own passions about issues, what they have done and ways we could be a voice for the voiceless. Come see what you’ve been missing on Wednesday nights!
All Saints’ Day | Nov. 2 | in both worship services At 2BC, All Saints’ Day is an occasion to remember loved ones who have died during the last year. This year All Saints’ Day will be Nov. 2. At the worship service of your choice (8:30 am or 11:00 a.m.), you or another person of your choice will have the opportunity to place a rose on our Lord’s Supper table in memory of your loved one. The roses are a gift from our congregation; you do not need to bring a rose with you. Contact Maggie Henderson at 816-781-2824 or mhenderson@2bcliberty.org if you would like to participate so we will have a rose ready for you.
Let’s Finish strong!
