It's not too late for you to invite someone to come with you Sunday.  Send a text, share with your Facebook friends, forward this email or give them a call.  Many people are trying to figure out what to do on Easter Sunday, they would love an invitation from you, who knows their whole life and eternity could change because you chose to invite them.  Please arrive early with your friends last year we had to open the balcony to accommodate the crowd.  Please pray for the service Sunday and all who will be involved in ministry.  Please help us welcome guests and find classrooms for families who are visiting.
Elaine Price and Staria Knick made a trip last week to Tennessee to visit our missionaries David and Evelyn Dye.  They are now ministering to elderly women who need a place to live in a Christian environment.  Please pray for this couple as they strive to show the love of Christ to these women in need. 

 

Jonathan Windle who grew up in our church is getting married!  He finally popped the question.  Jonathan is a youth pastor in the Hinton West Virginia area.  Pray for  Charissa and Jonathan as they take this big step in their lives.

My name is Billy Price and I have been the pastor of Faith Baptist Church for 38 years.  I graduated from Lynchburg Baptist College in Lynchburg, Virginia in 1975.  It is now known as Liberty University.  Upon graduation our little family of three moved to Covington Virginia to begin a new church.  Elaine, my wife; Robbie, my son and myself  started our grand adventure.  I was soon blessed with a daughter, Robin.  People often ask me did I know when I started I would be here 38 years later, I can honestly say no and God hasn't given me a reason leave.  I have enjoyed my ministry in the mountains of Virginia, if it is His will I hope to finish my race here, but that's up to Him.
