Taste of India 2010
Just wanted to make y'all aware of an upcoming event that is an opportunity for us to connect with the Indian community in our area. This annual festival is an opportunity to learn about the cultural, political, historical, and economical climate of India as well as to experience Indian food, art, etc. We would like to start building relationships within this community and would love for you to join us in this endeavor. This is also an opportunity to pray for India and the work that God is doing there. For more information about the event, please check out their website at: http://www.tasteofindiahr.org/. You are welcome to go either on your own or with a group from the church--we are planning to have one group leave after the 12:30 service and one later in the afternoon. FYI--parking and admission are free. Contact Craig (cclayton@firstnorfolk.org) or myself (sfreeman@firstnorfolk.org) for details.

Work Day at Park Place Baptist Church
Park Place Baptist Church is having a work day on Saturday, April 24th. Their plan is to dig drainage ditches in order to alleviate flooding in their basement rooms. They are looking for some strong helpers for the task; the engineering part has all been worked out already. They are also trying to get floors and steeple painted. We are holding missions training @ First Baptist Norfolk that morning, but if anyone is willing and able to go help after the training, they would very much appreciate your assistance. Please contact Roni Porfert with any questions you might have, either via email at roni.porfert@gmail.com or by phone at 622-1847.
