January 2, 2025, our Music Leader, Fred Stephens, received a new liver. Fred has a long journey ahead of him. With the new liver comes an overwhelming amount of medical bills. Fred and Dianne need our help.
We will be having a BBQ Supper Fundraiser for Fred and Dianne on Saturday, February 22 at 5:30 pm with an auction at 6:30 pm at First Baptist Church Stratford. Plates include pulled pork or chicken sandwich, baked beans, potato salad, coleslaw, dessert and drink at $15/plate. To-go boxes will be available.
If anyone would like to donate an item for auction, please let us know and we will put you in touch with the proper people. There will also be a donation box set up at the supper.
Some of the auction items are:
Quilts (queen and lap/baby) made by our "Stitchin and Prayin" quilters group here at FBC; American Saddlery 15 in seat saddle; 30 minutes photography session; pulled pork and 2 slabs of pork ribs; handmade halters; 2 1/2 hour house cleaning; $85 gift certificate to Evolve Wellness and Aesthetics in Ada; MaryKay sets, $25 gift certificate to Hinkle Fried Pies; one dozen roses; 5 joints of 2 3/8 pipe; charcoal grill; beef; and the list continues to grow each day.

Most of all, please pray for Fred's recovery.
