Walter Brown and the Fellowship Ministry Needs to Hear from You

(reprinted from the National Laymen E-Quarterly Newsletter)

 

Walter Brown, Jr.

Tinton Falls, NJ -- The reservations for the Missions in Education & Evangelism luncheon for this coming June at the National Congress of Christian Education are coming in very slow.
Walter Brown, Jr. and the Fellowship & Social Committee Ministry needs to hear from those who will be attending the Congress. They are trying to plan the seating and number of meals to secure. This is also the time when the senior laymen will reserve for their junior laymen bible contestants and basketball teams.
Below is the first appeal sent out.
On this coming June 24 2010, the National Laymen will observe the annual Missions in Education and Evangelism fundraiser for laymen operations, activities and ministries.
It is held annually during the Congress of Christian Education. This year the Congress will be held in Houston, Texas.
The laymen asks if the state convention laymen presidents would solicit a minimum of $300.00 from each district and present it at the luncheon on behalf of their state.
Walter Brown, Jr. (above) is the chairman of the luncheon and has written an open letter to the membership to solicit their support.
Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Laymen Brothers:

            As we stated in our last letter, final information concerning our Mission, Education and Evangelism Luncheon would be forthcoming.  Well, here it is!

            We need to go to work and as always make this Luncheon a great success.
As you have been informed, the price of the Luncheon tickets is $25.00. 

            We will be at the Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church ALL DAY, Thursday, June 24, 2010.  The Junior Laymen Bible Bowl and the Luncheon will all take place at the church.  The address is 3826 Wheeler Avenue, Houston, Texas 77004.  The Pastor of the church, Pastor Marcus Cosby, is also our Luncheon Keynote Speaker.

            The attached floor plan is being sent so that you can make your table (s) selection.  Please call me (732)-74l-0807 or e-mail me (Sajb619@cs.com) so that your selection can be confirmed.

            We need your help in making your table selection (Tables of 10) as quickly as possible.  Most importantly, we need your donation at Roll Call.  REMEMBER, NO MORE ZEROS BY STATE NAMES.  ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT IT!

            Again, we thank you for your cooperation in making the day a great one.

Yours in Christ,


Harold L. Simmons, President
Thad Jones, General Secretary
James Deen, Fourth Vice President
Walter Brown, Jr., Luncheon Chairman

The MO. Laymen do want to thank the parents, coaches and pastors for supporting this effort. Also congratulation goes the 1^st place winners, Tournament Champions, Mt Sinai/ Midwest District. All Jr. Laymen who participated in this tournament under the protection of Our LORD during the game and in traveling to from Columbia are winners in the eyes of Our MIGHTY GOD.. As a result of being the coach of the Champions, Enoch Moore was selected to be Head Coach for the MO. All-Stars and assistant coaching normally would go to the 2^nd Place team, Mt. Carmel District. However because there are no Mt. Carmel All-Stars available the Assistant Coach position defaults to the 3^rd Place Team, Berean District, Derek Roberts.
