• A Message from Pastor Shea

  Dear Church Family and Friends,

  This week has been one of new challenges for all of us. From cancellations to food and supply shortages, daily we have been reminded that as humanity we are frail and more and more dependent upon an all-powerful, merciful and gracious God. I am praying that each day you have found strength as you have drawn closer and closer to Him and His Word.

  With the many changes and recommendations that have come daily both from the federal and state government and with a desire to show love, care and concern for those within the church and our neighbors, we will not be having public services during this time.

  Our Sunday morning worship service will still be held via Facebook live. If you are not already following us on facebook, please take time to do so.  You can find us at facebook.com/uticabc

  Would you please make plans to join us in this time of worship and study together? Though we may not physically be able to gather, let our hearts join together in worship and prayer as we seek God and His wisdom during this unique time in the life of His church.
  The church is not closed, merely the building in which we meet. The church is very much alive; so, Church, let us live in a way that all the world will see Him.

  I have been praying earnestly that God will show us how we can continue to minister during this time and how we might do ministry differently. Over the next few days and week, I will be reaching out to many of you especially as leaders to explore ideas and ways to effectively proclaim Christ and His message of Salvation.

  Let us continue to pray that God will use this time of uncertainty as a means to bring glory and honor to His name and His call to all to know Him and the power of His resurrection.

  I am and will continue to pray for each of you. If there is anything I or we as a church can do to love, encourage, help and support you during this time, please call on us.

  His Servant and Yours,
  Pastor Shea Hicks

• Food Pantry

  The Utica Baptist Church Food Pantry is a joint effort of Utica Baptist Church, Redhill Baptist Church and Utica United Methodist Church.  

  The food pantry has been feeding people for several years now, and in that time we have been able to help many families!  

  If you are interested in helping support and supply the pantry, please feel free to pick up items such as the following...

  peanut butter, canned milk, canned fruit, vienna sausages, peas, boxed gelatine, instant potatoes, boxed pudding, crackers, jelly, chili, and soup.  

  You may also consider adding Utica Baptist Church to your Kroger Card as a Community Reward.  The Community Rewards Program is an additional benefit to your normal Kroger Rewards.  Just go online and link your Kroger Card to the Utica Baptist Church Community Reward. Proceeds from this program go directly to purchasing additional food for the pantry.

  You will need an email address, your Kroger card number, and alternate number (your 10 digit phone number).  If you need our Community Rewards number it is:  29005.  If you have never logged into kroger.com, you will need to creat an account; otherwise log in as you normally would.

  Link your Kroger Rewards Now

   

  If you are in need of help, the food pantry is open on the 3rd Tuesday of each month from 10-noon.  If you need help outside of these times, please contact one of the churches.

   

  Thank you so much for your help.
