The theme for this year’s Family Fellowship Week was “Choosing Joy.” It was taken from Habakkuk 3:17-18. The theme’s passage speaks of figs without blooms, vines without fruit, olives without oil, fields without meat, and flocks and herds who don’t return to their place of keeping. These conditions are enough to make anyone despair. However, Habakkuk states, “Yet, I will rejoice in the Lord. I will joy in the God of my salvation.”
We trust that as you read over this edition of Headquarter Happenings, you will be encouraged to rejoice in the Lord, regardless of the circumstances in which you currently find yourself. We also hope that you will be motivated to join us next year! Family Week always begins on the third Monday in June. In 2016, we will meet at the Valley Baptist Church in Edinburg, VA, from June 20-23. Come and be a part of this great event!
