A WORD FROM OUR STAFF Whether we like it or not, we live in a country and world that is increasingly dominated by sports. The Apostle Paul had a unique way of evangelizing by being “all things to all men.” Church sports can play such an important role in ministry today. People in our society are obsessed with sports. It’s a tool the church can use to reach out and make contact with the world around us! I love church sports ministries for three reasons: Mr. Mike Schulze High School/Sports Director One - It is another aspect of our ministry that we can offer to our own members here at CBT. The church really should be the hub of each Christian family. By having our own sports ministries, we can build stronger relationships and become much closer to each other as brothers and sisters in Christ. Parents don’t have to choose whether to take their child to church on a Wednesday night or a basketball practice. It is a ministry where devotions from God’s Word are given at each practice or game. CANTON BAPTIST TEMPLE FUNERAL & SYMPATHY NOTES Funeral services were conducted for: Dortha Pritt, Friday, January 30, 11:00 am at Sunset Hills Burial Park. Donald English, Wednesday, February 4, 12:00 pm at the Paquelet-Falk Funeral Home. Don Stoll, Friday, February 6, 11:30 am in the Henniger Ministry Center. Our sincere prayers & sympathy are extended to: Mary Phillips in the loss of her mother. What an incredible opportunity to take a lesson from the Apostle Paul’s playbook and be “all things to all people.” CBT currently offers four different sports ministries. We have our men’s basketball league that plays on Friday nights, our coed volleyball league that plays on Monday nights, our children’s basketball league that plays on Saturday mornings, and our churches softball team that begins each spring. So come along with us, get involved, and please pray for CBT Sports! ABF, 9 AM FEBRUARY 15 GENESIS 10-11 Tower of Confusion Two - Sports ministries are a great thing for us to offer to new families who may be visiting here. We desire to have a well rounded family ministry here at CBT that reaches out to the entire family. Many of the families who will visit here seeking a new home church will be interested in what we have to offer for their children in the area of sports. Three - It is a great tool to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with our community. This past season we were able to see a young man come to Christ through our children’s basketball league. Almost each and every team, in whatever the sport may be, will have someone on that team who is unchurched and unsaved. We encourage our members who are a part of those teams to build relationships with those who need the Lord and invite them to attend our church. The R Team is scheduled for this Tuesday and Saturday’s outreach. If you are not signed up yet and would like to be a part of this outreach ministry, please contact Rev. Ben Jennings at ext. 156.

I Thessalonians 1:3 sums it up very well. As I read of Paul remembering the Thessalonians, it reminds me of your work of faith and labor of love as well. I am blessed to be in partnership with you, and I want to thank you for your continued prayers and support. I had the privilege of spending a week in Oxford House during December. The church is still meeting together and growing. My desire was to encourage, minister and serve them while I was there, but as usual, I came away very encouraged, ministered unto and served by them. Please continue to pray for the church in Oxford House as they continue to grow closer to the Lord and to each other, and that they will keep on being a testimony in their community.
