Join us for RBC's Spring Work Day on March 9, 2023 from 8:00am-12:00pm. Some of our planned Work Day activities include:

• Simple maintenance & repairs
• Labeling children's resource closet
• General cleaning and organizing

We hope to see you there!

The RBC Men's 2024 Spring Grow Group will begin meeting on Thursday, February 1st at 9:00am at RBC. This 8-week group will be based on the book, The Stressless Life by Vance Pitman and the cost is $10. The book can be picked up from the church office.

We are excited to announce Kristin Padilla as this year's retreat speaker! You can find out more about Kristin by visiting her website here. Be sure to mark your calendar for the 2024 RBC Churchwide Retreat on August 2nd-3rd at the Alabama 4-H Center! More details to come!

**It's the beginning of a new month! February's meal sign-up is now available here**

Wednesday Night Schedule

5:15 PM- Dinner

6:00 PM- Adult Bible study and children's/youth activities

7:00 PM- Adult Choir Rehearsal

Please make your dinner reservations here as soon as possible if you plan to eat on Wednesday nights during the month of February. After signing up for the meals you will attend, we ask that, if at all possible, you pay for your meals on the Sign-Up Genius website. Simply leave the quantity as "1" and input the total cost for the month in the "cost" box. This is a secure site, much like Realm. However, if paying online is not an option for you, please submit a cash or check payment to the church office at your convenience as money will no longer be taken in the fellowship hall on Wednesday nights.

Feel free to email Noelle with any questions or concerns you may have regarding Wednesday night meal sign-ups/payments.

Visit the RBC website to learn more about the 2024 Bible reading plan.

Schedule an appointment to donate blood on 2/11 here. All donors will receive a $20 E-Gift card!

If you would like to support our congregation and ministerial staff by engaging in supportive prayer during Sunday morning worship, sign up for a time slot here.

Are you looking for a way to serve? Do you have instrumental talent that you would like to share with our congregation? Email Roberta about joining RBC's worship team! She is looking especially for those who play drums and/or guitar with a reasonable level of proficiency. We would love to hear you play!

"God, open my eyes that I might see my church as You see it. Let me see where change needs to take place, even if it is painful to me. And use me, I pray, to be an instrument of that change whatever the cost."

1. Luke 10: 41-42 NASB “But the Lord answered and said to her, ‘Martha, Martha, you are worried about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.’” Father, so many times the cares of this life, both responsibilities and duties tend to crowd out our time with You. Would You forgive us and grant us better time management and determination to give You our best time, not that which is left over?

2.  Colossians 3: 23 NASB “Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Christ whom you serve.” Father God, we often have a dilemma over doing our best work and giving God our best attention. Help us to choose wisely and to be willing to let some things go for the good of the best things.
