Prayer breakfast
8/27



Join us at 9:00 am on Saturday, August 27, for Prayer Breakfast. It’s just what it sounds like: we’ll meet in the fellowship hall for food, fellowship, a time of praise, and, most importantly, a time of prayer for our church family and our community. We look forward to seeing you here!



texas missions offering
mary hill davis



And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” —Matthew 28:18-20

Jesus’ Great Commission is the focal passage for this year’s Mary Hill Davis Offering for Texas Missions. The Mary Hill Davis Offering funds a huge variety of ministries each year—everything from food pantries to prison ministries to church planting to refugee ministries to chaplaincy programs to medical ministry to student ministry. All these projects, and more, aim to share the Lord’s love with our neighbors in Texas, make disciples, and grow His kingdom. Rosedale Baptist Church’s goal this year for the Mary Hill Davis Offering for Texas Missions is $500 and we’ll learn about some of the ways that our donations change lives in our Texas Missions Study during our 6:00 pm worship service on Sunday, August 28. Pray about how you and your family can support Baptist mission work in our state!


Hope of Life Mission Work



Our sister church, Hope of Life Baptist Church, composed of refugees and immigrants from Congo, has been meeting on the Rosedale campus for several years. They’ve been a real blessing to us, and now they’re sharing God’s blessings with believers in Kenya as well. With the help of the Baptist General Convention of Texas, they have planted a church in Nairobi, Kenya, for fellow Congolese refugees and have almost completed a building for them to meet in. In addition, they are in the process of starting a ministry among the Maasai in Kenya. Hope of Life Pastor Dieudonne Ratabagaya will be leading a mission trip to Nairobi in late September to facilitate work on the church, to help ordain ministers and deacons, and to take care of other organizational matters. Please pray for the Lord’s continued guidance for everyone involved in this project, as well as for travel safety for the folks heading to Kenya in September, and for the funding that they need to finish and maintain the work that they’re doing. (If you want to contribute to this work, call the church office, and we’ll get you connected.)


Welcome New Members!

Lord's supper



We’ll be celebrating the ordinance of the Lord’s Supper during both worship services on Sunday, September 25. Come with your hearts prepared.



Prayer Line



Rosedale Baptist Church’s Prayer Line is updated several times a week with prayer needs within our church family and beyond, as well as upcoming events at the church. To hear updates (or to leave a prayer request), call the Prayer Line at (512) 453-0002.



Maintenance Update



Both of the church’s refrigerators died in the last 2 months but, thanks to generous donations (of a used fridge and of the money to purchase a new one), both have been replaced with much better models than we had originally. And, in welcome news for anyone who has tried to lock or unlock it recently, the front door’s bolt has been repaired. (Many thanks to Jack Nottingham!) We have a number of maintenance projects upcoming, (Lord willing), including outdoor lighting upgrades, roofing work, tree trimming, and drywall work in the sanctuary bathrooms. Pray with us for guidance (and for funding!) as we strive to be good stewards of the resources that the Lord has entrusted to us.
