“Tackle the Debt” is a fall program that has been designed by the Building Finance Team to attempt to lower the principal on the current loan from $7,180,000 to below $7 Million by December 31, 2010. Please watch for mail from Taylor Road. You will be receiving information and invitations to “Tackle the Debt.”
Our �rst point of focus will be PRAYER! You are invited to a Prayer Rally in the Worship Center on Wednesday night, August 4, at 6:30 P.M. There will be scripture readings, special times of prayer, and praise. As a time of consecration the Lord’s Supper will be included in this rally.

TACKLE THE DEBT
"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,"
Ephesians 3:20nkjv
3missions
The Alabama Baptist Newspaper had an editorial in a December issue about hunger and the lack of food: “Nationally 17 million households fall into the categories of low and very low food security. Low food security means people do not get enough nutrition and calories to sustain health. Very low food security means people go to bed hungry.”
It is our month to collect food for the Helping Hands Ministry. Grocery sacks will be distributed on Sunday, August 1. We will begin collecting food on Sunday, August 8, and collect until the end of August. Please bring your �lled bags to the lobby of the Education Building.
Because we are so blessed, I hope you and your family will consider sharing with those in need.

you to go, please contact Dean Finch ([email protected]) in the

What an amazing summer! Saddle Ridge Ranch is in the books, and did we ever have a great time! Vacation Bible School always reminds us of what an awesome church family we have. We are deeply grateful to every person who sacri�ced their week to come and make Vacation Bible School a success. We appreciate your prayers (the real key to success in any endeavor). And we are grateful for the generous giving of Taylor Road that allows so many children from the area to have a great time while learning about God and His love for them.
Thank you, and we love you! David and Ruth Givens
Playworld Systems chose Taylor Road Baptist Church’s playground as the 2011 preschool playground of the year. In June, members of the company’s art and photo departments spent a day at TRBC conducting a photo shoot. Selected for its unique design, color and the location, the playground will appear in the company’s January 2011 catalogue. Thanks, again, to all the people who made this possible. Who knew?

Our students had an amazing week in East Chicago, Indiana. We joined students from all over the nation in repairing and rehabilitating homes, parks, and churches. Our students worked hard. We saw 23 people come to Christ during our work week. To God be the Glory. We were so excited to be a part of a World Changers week that made such an impact.

Parents, what if there was a place where your children could have fun, develop their musical gifts, play games, learn about worship, and learn basic music theory – all for FREE???
There is! Our children’s choir program is o�ered each Sunday at 5:30 p.m., and it o�ers all this and more. Your kids will be learning and having fun in a loving environment. And with fall just around the corner, it won’t be long before we begin working on the kids’ favorite - our Christmas musical!
If your children aren’t in choir, why not start bringing them now? Sunday, August 15 begins our new year – there’s no better time for them to join!
