Congratulations to Pleasant Home Baptist Church on being chosen for the Outstanding Achievement Award for VBS for 2022 in the Ashe Baptist Association. Six or more were saved and attendance was great for this church. Congratulations to Pleasant Home Baptist Church in Grassy Creek, NC. Rev. Lonnie Carpenter is the pastor. Thanks to all the churches who did VBS this year! It was been a great year for VBS.

Would the church you attend like to host The Annual Meeting of the Ashe Baptist Association in 2023 on Saturday? Give the Preacher Place Committee a call or call the Associational Office. Bald Mt. Baptist is scheduled to host on Friday next year 2023. Saturday is open.

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ, I hope all is well with you and the church you attend. In August of last year, during the Annual Associational Meeting, a proposal was made to take up an offering to go toward the debt of the properties and buildings of the Ashe Baptist Association office and Ashe Really Cares. The amount given last year was a total of $23,678.00. We praise the Lord for Him encouraging the hearts of God’s people to give. We are again encouraging Churches and individuals to give this year a special contribution on October 16th to the ABA to help eliminate the debt. The dept was reduced to $71,598.09 as of June 2022. This would free up $1,054.74 a month to go to other resources and remove the burden of debt to ABA. There have been many creative ways mentioned that churches and individuals can do to take part; however, the important point is for all who can to participate in this endeavor. God bless you for doing your part in this important effort to eliminate the financial liability for ABA. May God bless as we continue to reach men, women, and young people with the gospel of Jesus Christ in Ashe County. Sincerely, Budget & Finance Committee of Ashe Baptist Association Chairman, Russell Hart
