Spoonbread Festival 2009

For Berea's Spoonbread Festival this year our church had a booth set up where we shared about the activities that our church takes part in and we made salvation bracelets to give away! We also handed out over 500 New Testament Bibles!!!



As we made the bracelets we were able to share the Gospel of Jesus! We were able to hand out over 600 bracelets.
Glory be to God!
Here is what the bead colors for the salvation bracelets represent:

BLACK---Sin
Romans 3: 23 "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."

RED---Blood of Christ
Romans 5:8-9 "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us..."

BLUE---Baptism
Romans 6:4 "We were therefore buried with him through baptism..."

WHITE---Forgiveness
Psalm 32:1 "Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered."

GREEN---Growing in God
2 Peter 3: 18 “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ…”

GOLD---Heaven
Revelation 21:21 "...And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass."



We had several members of our Children in Action there to help with the bracelets!

This is some of our youth group with Youth Pastor Larry David Freeman
