Thankful In The Mess
Thanks and Giving “A series on cultivating gratitude and thankfulness in every season of life.” Thank You: Good morning Eastern Shore Baptist Church. Before I begin today’s message, I want to say “thank you”. I want to thank you for your heart. I want to thank you for your tireless service. I want to thank you for all of your smiles, the handshakes, the “how can I help” yous. This past week Eastern Shore Baptist Church became the center of Baptist life for the great state of Alabama. Baptists from as far north as Sheffield, AL and as far south as Orange Beach, AL journeyed to THIS church to chart a course for all of Alabama Baptists. Hosting the Convention is not easy. For those of you who were here working, you know this to be true. There is a great deal of preparation before hand. During the Convention, you are promised little thanks and long hours. You are promised early mornings and late evenings. However, the Convention is worth it. The Convention mobilizes our volunteers. T
