Peacock Family Weekend



Peacock was a busy place last weekend. Saturday night, FBC hosted The Gloryland Boys for a night of gospel singing followed by a sandwich fellowship. Our annual outdoor service and meal was Sunday morning, a cool fall day. We had an abbreviated Sunday School class before the worship service. George brought his guitar to accompany our congregational worship, led by Joe, and for his special. Brian preached from several books, finishing in John 17. God's Word is always so good. Bill and Billy Kirk cooked lots and lots of steaks and our ladies prepared all the side dishes for a meal that couldn't be topped in any restaurant in Texas. Now that's just the truth. We were thankful for the Word, the food, and all our guests. We took the remaining food to the kitchen at our building and had another meal together Sunday evening following the next special service, the second Peacock Family Theatre. We watched Escape From Hell. It is a very good movie with a happy ending for most of the characters and a bleak ending for others, a result of clear choices made. Scenes from the movie are being played out every day in real life. That is why we are here, to be used by God building His kingdom, proving in one way or the other that His Word is true, that He love us all, and He is in control. Few pictures were made but can be seen at the Picasa site. (Click on the Picasa Web Albums at the top of the right column and then click on the Peacock Family Weekend Album and then Slideshow.)
