One Year Old!

         God has blessed His church in Kewaunee in so many ways this past year. We've seen souls saved! Three young men were led to Christ at Troutfest, from which one family is currently involved in weekly discipleship; and two young children within our church family accepted salvation. God has brought four people to obedience in believer's baptism, resulting in two joyful meetings at the shore of Lake Michigan. What a testimony to the community through those services.

        Our past posts have hi-lighted the events of the year, and we are amazed and humbled to watch God use us to bring together His church in this area. One of the more notable events of the year was our move to a bigger building this September. We had been squeezing into the nursery and classrooms, as well as stepping on toes to walk around our auditorium for a number of weeks, before the membership voted to rent a larger building and move up the street. We are overwhelmed with the steady rise in attendance this summer, and now average fourty-five on a Sunday morning. Our new building meets our needs perfectly, with larger classrooms, a larger auditorium, ample parking, and expanded restroom facilities. We were also able to build storage closets and a much needed mother's room. We did not expect to grow out of our first building so soon, and the renovations seemed a bit like deja vu. However, Ray noted an exciting difference, in that last year the work was done by the people in our mother church at Bay City Baptist, this new building was prepared completely by the people of Lakeshore Baptist Church. Please come visit us sometime at 925 Marquette Dr., Kewaunee, WI, and meet our new church :)
