2009 WEEK OF PRAYER: NOV 29-DEC 6:
False religions, political oppression, multiple languages, harsh living conditions and religious persecution are some of the barriers to sharing Christ with unreached people groups. Still, that doesn't override the Great Commission that Scripture gives to all who follow Him. It is this challenge that compels Southern Baptists to go into difficult places and preach the Gospel.
Pray during Week of Prayer 2009 for these pockets of lostness:
DAY 1: Peoples of Northern India

DAY 2: Peoples of Ethiopia


DAY 3: Lezghi people of the Caucasuses

DAY 4: Berber people of North Africa

DAY 5: Vietnamese of Cambodia

DAY 6: Peoples of Iran

DAY 7: Lost cities of China

DAY 8: Peoples of the Canary Islands


EXTRA: Beulah Baptist Church - A church mobilized

You are our honored guest.
It is a pleasure to have you worship with us.

We pray that you find a worshipful atmosphere, friendly people, and the inspiration of God’s truth revealed.

Please fill out the communication card in the bulletin and place it in the offering plate. Parents are welcome to use the nursery.

At the close of each service our pastor extends an invitation. At that time, if you have any needs, walk forward and make your request known to the pastor.


History:
Hillcrest Baptist Church was founded in 1912 as Palatka Heights Baptist Church. The present building was constructed in the 1950s and the name changed to Hillcrest at that time. The church stands strongly for scriptural doctrine on missions, and is an active member of the St. Johns River Baptist Association.
