Main Street, Lexington SC 29072 803.359.4146 24-hour prayer line: 803.808.7729 lexingtonbaptist.org FROM THE PASTOR Dr. Mike Turner Senior Pastor pastor@lexingtonbaptist.org miketurnerblog.com I received an email the other day that thrilled my heart. A young family in our community had wandered from the life they knew to be right and found them- selves in a spiritually dark and lonely place. They were on a dangerous course but didnt know how to get their lives on track. When the mom and dad divorced, it seemed there was no future. Then another couple, friends who are a part of our church, invited the dad to come to church and bring the children with him. This second couple had recently connected with our church and were excited about their experience here, so they reached out to their friend. Here is how the single dad described what happened (Im grateful he allowed me to share this with you): I started coming each Sunday morning for service and then to my friends Sunday School class. I was welcomed with arms of love, care, compassion and fellow- ship like I have never had before. As hard as it was to get my children ready each Sunday, I knew they and I were healing from a broken marriage and the struggle of being a single dad. The care givers in my childrens Sunday School classes and on Sunday nights made such a difference in my life that I cannot say thank you enough. They encouraged me each Sunday as I came that I was doing great and my children were doing so good in their classes. The people at LBC gave me hope in a time where I felt hopeless and helpless. They reached out not with empty hands and noses in the air. They reached down into my life in a way that made me know that I could do it. I could make it. I could be a good father. I could raise these children. He fnished his email with this: My children are on a path to know Christ because of LBC doing what you say your mission is and that is to make disciples of Jesus Christ in Lexington and around the world. I am on the path to being the man God wants me to be because our family of faith does what it says its going to do. All I can say is Thank you, Lord. This kind of story is why we do what we do. Were surrounded by hurting and broken people, and every time we reach out to them in Jesus name, we may be making an eternal difference. Coming up later this month is our annual Light Up the Night, when our church offers a Christian alternative to Halloween for all of Lexington. Its our biggest outreach event of the year and draws more people to our campus than anything else we do. WE NEED YOUR HELP! Heres what we need from you: Pray that the Holy Spirit will work through all our people to touch others lives with the gospel during this event Volunteer to help- contact Maegan Bolding (maegan@lexingtonbaptist.org) if you can host a Trunk or Treat, manage a display, be a hostess, direct parking or any of the many other tasks which are necessary Donate candy for our Trunk or Treat. There are collection bins around campus. As we continue to reach out into our community and world with the gospel, your fnancial gifts to our ministry are vitally important. The ministries here at LBC are possible because of your willingness to give. The Bible compares our giving to the act of sowing, just like a farmer sows seed in his felds. When we sowor plantfnancially, were providing for the harvest to come. Heres what the Bible says: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows boun- tifully will also reap bountifully (2 Corinthians 9:6). Its a privilege and blessing to sow into Gods Kingdom, and as you do that each week, please know that youre making an eternal difference in many peoples lives.

No Meal Served October 29 Wired Wednesdays Something amazing has been happening on Wednesday nights with our LexKids at Wired. Each week, we are taking a deeper look at our churchs core values and learning what it means to Worship, Grow, Serve and Go. We have hosted guest musicians and artists, taken a deeper look at scripture, learned to share the gospel with our friends, gone to LICS to serve and had a missions night with an international missionary and food from their country. We are doing this every month, so dont miss it! Our last Wednesday night of the semester will be November 12th, 2014. 4 Moving Up We had an incredible time with 30 of our rising 1st graders and their families! They each received an Adven- ture Bible and learned what it meant to treasure Gods Word. Families were able to share their favorite verses together and personal stories of learning and trusting in scripture. 5 The Great Date Challenge SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15 5 TO 9 P.M. Lex Kids is committed to part- nering with families. There is no way we could do this with- out also committing to help our parents date.

God has been so gracious to us. We have seen students come to Christ, get baptized and grow in their walks with God. We spent all September talking about digging into Gods word, challenging our students to self-feed and be active in growing themselves through the Word of God. Not only are students growing, but we have seen organic student-led Bible studies happening through the week. I am reminded of our purpose which is, To make disciples of Jesus Christ in Lexington and around the world. Church, that is happening in our Student Ministry. I am encouraged to see new faces every week. Students are under- standing the importance of reaching out into their spheres of infuence and making a difference. Parents, please pray for us as we continue to seek Gods direction and follow His voice. Our only desire is to bring God glory through our lives. We would love to see your students on Wednesday nights. Encounter 431 is a chance for your student to meet new friends and grow deeper in their faith. Each week we hang out together, worship together and share together. Encounter 431 is a must do for every student in this church. I know some students work and have school activities: that just means that when you have a day off or an off-season, its time to jump in. Four times in the month of October we have Game Day Tailgate on Friday nights. On October 10 and 24, we will be rep- resenting at Gilbert High, October 17 at River Bluff and October 31 at White Knoll. We always tailgate from 6 to 7:15 p.m. at these schools. We encourage all students to travel with us, even if we are tailgating at a different school than your own. Its about the community! Parents, every week we send out parent emails to update families on whats going on within our ministry. If you are not receiving these emails, please contact Kristen King at kking@lexingtonbaptist.org so she can update our list. We love you, and if there is anything we can do to better partner with families, please let us know. God bless and have a great October. Ian Geimer Associate Pastor Next Generation Ministries Ian@lexingtonbaptist.org Middle School Ministry Families, By now youve seen our students wearing shirts with this image on them. CORE students are our students that not only want to go beyond the status quo, but they want to lead the way in this movement. Youve seen these students serve at big events such as Tail- gate Sunday, and theyre soon to be at Light Up the Night, but they are all plugged into areas of service each Sunday from the childrens ministry, to the orchestra and choir. CORE is a leadership group that allows students to use their gifts and willingness to serve to make an impact on the lives that they touch. These CORE students are not only doing these big events and weekly service opportunities, but they are truly reaching out to their peers inside the student ministry here at LBC and even at their schools. The reason I can confdently say this, is that in the past two years, our CORE ministry has doubled in size; I just want to remind you that this is a serving ministry (you know, the stuff thats hard to get people to sign up to do!). Even so, weve seen great growth in this ministry, and its because these stu- dents take the Great Commission seriously; they have really multiplied this group by reaching out to their peers. These students are changing the culture they live in by leading in ways that put others frst as they share the love of Christ; for me as an eyewitness, its exciting to see! Daniel Walker Middle School Ministry Director Daniel@lexingtonbaptist.org 7 Students- join us this fall as we tailgate before high school football games. We will get together for food and games in the school parking lots- make sure to invite your friends! Gameday {GHS v. BCHS} Friday, October 10 6 to 7:15 p.m. Brookland-Cayce @ Gilbert Gameday {LHS v.

For reservations or more information, call 803.996.8843 or email marceil@lexingtonbaptist.org Wednesday Nights at LBC If you havent been here on Wednesday evenings, let me encourage you to check out what is offered. You should be aware of the 4 p.m. Bible study, led by Pastor Mike in the Chapel. On October 1, hell begin teaching on living in the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. I am always encouraged by his teaching, so I hope youll have a chance to connect as well. Again, at 6:15 p.m., Pastor Mike offers the same study in the Chapel, and we also have D Groups (Discipleship Groups) available. We have three D Groups beginning that each cover a different topic: one on parenting, one for men and one for women. Its incredible what the Lord will do through you if you let him. Kimberly and I are teaching the D Group on parenting! We are doing the best we can and have super awesome kids, but come on now... Im not sure anyone needs to learn how to parent from me!! Kimberly and I have taken some parenting classes before and learned some helpful techniques, but at the end of the day, kids are going to sometimes listen to you and sometimes not- I guess our prayer has always been that theyd listen and follow directions more than they didnt. The study we are using to teach parenting is entitled Ready to Launch, and the authors pointed out a great point right at the beginning of the study. As couples new to parenthood, weve all asked - in some form or fashion - How should I/ we raise these kids? What the author suggests is that we actually ask, Why did God give me these kids? That was re- ally a game-changer for Kimberly and me. If I look at it from the perspective of trying to understand Gods reasoning for blessing us with two great kids, we wont focus so much on rules and regulations for them, rather living out the gospel in front of them, for them and eventually with them. Why do I raise this issue with older adults? Because I want to thank you for the work youve done in living out the gospel to your children and grandchildren, and for some of you, great-grandchildren. A principle I belive many of you understand says Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of ones youth. Blessed is the man who flls his quiver with them! (Psalm 127:4-5, ESV) I am around couples in their 30s who constantly say how appreciative they were for their parents and grandparents who were solid, godly men and women. You dont get thanked enough for just being who God created you to be, so from my family to you, thank you! May God continue to richly bless you in your families. Jerry Jerry Freeman Associate Pastor Senior Adults & Congregational Care jerry@lexingtonbaptist.org 9 Run for God Have you ever wanted to try running but arent sure where to start?

1 ! 12 October Focus: Impact -> Prisons This month, we focus on our Prison Ministry. God is making disciples even behind the walls. Would you like to be involved in some of these prison ministry opportunities? - Prayer commitment - Donating Bibles - Filling Christmas Prison Packets - Writing personal notes to inmates And if God is leading you to serve behind the walls - Worship services - Bible studies - Life skills classes - Holiday fellowship meals Below are testimonies from those impacted by Gods work in our local prisons: While I was in prison, God reached down from heaven and saved me out of the pig pen, the mess I was in and set me free from the bondage of drugs and gangs. I am now on fre for Jesus, my Lord and Savior. God gave me a new heart and put a new Spirit within me. Jesus shed blood on the cross covered all sins past, present and future for those who believe in Him. -Inmate That was Jesus loving you through me. And He loved me through you. Sisters in Christ. How blessed I am, Father, to get to go into the prisons to visit with you. - Prison Ministry volunteer Many of our class members really know the Bible and it is so refresh- ing and inspiring to study with them. Going to Broad River Prison each Wednesday from 12 to 2 p.m. is the highlight of my week. - Prison Ministry Volunteer I hate my incarceration, but it is the best thing that ever happened to me. Praise God! - Inmate God has used me in ways I never thought possible for me. He has provided for me and protected me in some very dangerous situations. He has also led me to some of the best friends a person could ever have. The thing that makes me smile is that my life is just beginning. He has blessed me with this awesome opportunity at C.I.U. for a great education. I have a chance to learn so much more, so I can be better equipped to serve God. -Inmate Throughout the month of October, we will be collecting new and gently-used Bibles to distribute in our local prison. A collection area will be set up in the Worship Center lobby. 13 Alyce Gilliam Associate Pastor, Missions alyce@lexingtonbaptist.org Christmas Prison Packets Many men, women and youth in prison have no one that cares for them. They have no visitors and do not receive gifts at Christmas. Make Christmas special for them by providing hope and love with a Christmas Prison Packet. Some may receive the true Christmas gift, Jesus Christ. Every single Prison Packet gets delivered. You put it together, and well put it in the right hands. God will do the rest. A list of approved items is avail- able in the Worship Center foyer, as well as a collection area for completed packets. Items include: - Pens - Toothpaste - Toothbrushes - Soap - Paper - Envelopes - Mints - Candy The deadline to drop off a Prison Packet is November 9. Additionally, we will be again serving the families of the in- mates through our Angel Tree ministry. More information will be available in the Worship Cen- ter foyer in October. For more information on our ac- tive Prison Ministry at LBC, visit our website or email John Wright at jwright@lexingtonbaptist.org. God at Work Because you so faithfully give to Missions at Lexington Baptist Church, we are able to live out our mission statement and make disciples of Jesus Christ in Lexington and around the world. I hope youll take a minute to read some of these amazing stories from our partners to see just how big an impact is being made for the Kingdom through your gifts of your time, fnances and prayers. U* is a new contact that one of our students met. Our student had been frequenting the same caf for several weeks. U saw him reading his Bible there and fnally had the courage to approach him and asked, Are you a Believer? Yes I want to be a Believer. They began to talk about what that means and the student shared his testimony. U has visited a local fellowship and has been studying the gospel. The student introduced him to one of our teammates and U brought along two friends. They openly talked about faith in Jesus and wanted to know more. One of these friends also seems to be a genuine seeker. Pray for these guys to soon join the Kingdom and for their group of friends to be a part of a new gathering.
- Missions Partner in Central Asia During the 2014 SD Card (computer fash drives) Distribution Event, Evangelistic/ Christian media was distributed to Persians during the Nooruz Holiday. This year almost 31,000 SD Cards (containing the Bible) were distributed and following are two highlights from that event: From a partner: Recently we met a man named K, gave him a chip and shared our testimony. This led to the man reading and listening to the Bible and eventually placing his faith in Christ. He has returned to a very closed country and continues to be discipled over Skype. From an American Volunteer: One of the things we heard about three times that was really encouraging was that Persians came this year to (the location where the distribution took place) because they had heard that they could get the Bible there. These people would take their vacation time and spend their money just to get a Bible! Wow! - Missions Partner in Central Asia These are just a few of the many, many stories we hear about the impact that the Missions Ministry has around the world. Thank you for your support! 14 Fall session: October 1- November 12 {6:15 to 7:15 p.m.} To pre-register, call Sandy at 803.996.8821 or email sandy@lexingtonbaptist.org. D Groups (short for Discipleship Groups) are a way to connect intentionally with other believers and grow to- gether through Bible study and fellowship. We are excited to start October with three new D Groups, as well as a new sermon series by Pastor Mike. These groups will each meet on Wednesdays at 6:15 p.m. These classes are identical to session one classes, allowing you to participate in two different groups this fall. Heres what we are offering: Kingdom Authority: Living in the Presence and Power of the Holy Spirit Chapel {4 and 6:15 p.m.} Pastor Mike Turner
Pastor Mike is beginning a new Wednesday night series on October 1 entitled Kingdom Authority: Living in the Presence and the Power of the Holy Spirit. He will dig deeper into what it means to live in the Spirit of God and how doing that can impact your life for the Kingdom. Attend at 4 or 6:15 p.m. each Wednesday night through November 12. Ready to Launch CHB 202 Jerry & Kimberly Freeman
Christian parents are not seeking mere behavior modifcation in their children but the growth of truly godly passions. Training a child up in the way he should go must be done intentionally, with the mind and heart of God. Based on Psalm 127, this study plumbs the wisdom of the Bible about the goals of parenting, the stages of discipline, the role of the church and strategies to shape the heart toward the gospel. {Book cost: $12} Me, Myself & Lies: A Thought Closet Makeover CHB 201 Rachel Capps
This Bible study encourages women to clean out the negative thoughts in their minds related to things like self-esteem, body image and stress, and to replace them with positive truths from Gods Word. {Book cost: $12} Kingdom Man: Every Mans Destiny, Every Womans Dream CHB 203 Chuck McDaniel and Ray Hill
Our culture has redefned manhood by emasculating men through a repositioning of their role. The Bible clearly communicates that man was created to exercise dominion over the various areas of his life, taking responsibili- ty for himself and others entrusted to his care. When a man functions within the principles of biblical manhood, those around him beneft from his leadership and care. This study challenges and equips men to fully under- stand their position under God, learning to operate under the authority of Jesus Christ. {Book cost: $12} 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday 1 2 WEEKLY SCHEDULE
