Exciting News

1/11/2015

below We wanted to announce to everyone some exciting news.  Little Red River Bible Church is moving from our current rented building in Pangburn to an existing church building located at 2674 Wilburn Road, Heber Springs.  This building is 2 miles past Wilburn on Highway 110 coming from Pangburn and about 5 miles out 110 from Heber Springs.  If you know where the Swans can be found down Hayes road, the building is directly across 110 from Hayes Road.

We have enjoyed our current building since our first service February 16, 2014.  We like the location, have found our funds growing with no financial issues, and the thought of moving had not crossed our minds.  We have been enjoying our time together, expositing the Scripture book by book, with our whole focus being upon feeding or nourishing the church with the God ordained means of expositing the scripture.  We have been blessed.

During the year, we came into contact with the members of Sovereign Grace Baptist Church.  They have met in the building on Wilburn Road for almost 30 years.  Over the course of the last 3 or 4 months they have been having their morning service and then meeting with us for the afternoon service.  In this short amount of time we have grown to love them and they us.  It has been a wonderful time for both small groups of believers.

After lengthy consideration, the members of Sovereign Grace Baptist Church have decided to join Little Red River Bible Church.  The Little Red River Bible Church leadership, distinctives, doctrinal statement, and church covenant have been embraced by the members of SGBC, and they have initiated the process of joining LRRBC under our leadership. 

In coming together, we had our first Sunday morning service Sunday, January 4.  We will continue meeting at the Pangburn building on Sunday mornings at 10:30 through the month of January and will have our first service in the new LRRBC building February 1 at 10:30 AM.  We are doing some refresh work inside the building and should be mostly completed by February 1.  Either way we will be meeting there on that date.  The building and land is being transferred to Little Red River Bible Church and the funds for the updates have been provided in advance.

God is amazing.  We unashamedly believe in and worship the Sovereign God who is the creator of the universe.  He spoke all that we see and all that has ever been into existence.  We may plan and try to work out what we should do next, but he makes all things come together.  “The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.” (Proverbs 16:9, ESV)  We did not ever consider the possibility of changing locations within one year, but now we find ourselves with new members that we love, a building with no debt, and room to grow with 5 acres of land.  We can now sit about 60 or more with some creativity, have a fellowship hall, and 3 bathrooms.  Another blessing with the location is that it is only 9 miles from Pangburn and only 5 miles outside Heber Springs.  We praise the Lord for the way He has worked this out and are looking forward to moving forward.

You should expect to see the sign changed in the next few weeks.  If you have considered joining us sometime, come visit us the next two weeks in Pangburn or come see us February 1st at 2674 Wilburn Road, Heber Springs, AR.

I have included a slideshow below w
ith a few pictures of some of the work done in the fellowship hall.

God Bless,

Tony Floyd
