Help wanted:

Our awesome treasurer of many years, Charlotte Davis, has given notice that she would love to train her replacement and hand off the task by the end of 2026. What are the tasks of a treasurer?

Core Responsibilities:

· Record Keeping

o Record all income and expenses

· Budget Management

o Provide input on the church budget and monitor spending

· Financial Reporting

o Prepare and submit financial updates for business meetings

· Banking and Payables

o Oversee deposits and reconciliations, bill paying, and payroll

· Compliance

o Ensure adherence to tax laws, non-profit filing and donor tax statements

Some of these tasks are weekly while others are monthly or quarterly

Key Skill and Qualifications or Skills and knowledge required for this Ministry

· Integrity and trustworthiness

o Handling information, financial data, and cash securely

· Organizational skills

o Basic accounting knowledge and / or church management software experience. (We use ACS)

· Confidentiality

· Collaboration

o You will work with the Pastoral staff, finance committee, to inform their decision making and priorities.

Ministry is not everything we do on the spiritual side (Praying, Bible Reading, Discipling, Evangelizing, Worshiping, etc.) it is also being stewards of what is provided to the local body of believers. Being a treasurer is key to maintaining healthy viable ministries. As a church we need to be praying that God moves in the heart of our membership to fill this vital role.

1 Chronicles 26:20 established being a treasurer as a task for the Levites. God indeed established that we should manage finances and steward our resources for the building of HIS kingdom.

Does any of this sound like something God has prepared you for? If so, please pary about serving and especially talk with Charlotte or Roger.

Church – pray that God fills this position as soon as possible. After serving all of these years, Charlottes wants to smoothly transition to having an informed and capable replacement. Let’s honor her commitment by answering Gods’ call and praying for HIS provision in this critical area of Ministry.

Fellowship INSIGHTS week of September 19th
Revival – October 4th through the 7th – 6:30 – 7:30 each evening. How’s your Andrews list going? 6 people you are praying for and inviting to attend. By now, you should be asking them to attend by phone, email, handwritten note, or in-person visit. Attendance and results are totally dependent on God working through the Holy Spirit, but you can join in the process by making sure people attend to hear the good news! Romans 10:14-15 (NCV) 14 But before people can ask the Lord for help, they must believe in him; and before they can believe in him, they must hear about him; and for them to hear about the Lord, someone must tell them; 15 and before someone can go and tell them, that person must be sent. It is written, “How beautiful is the person who comes to bring good news.” Women’s retreat is next week. Please pray for a great time away to grow together in spirit and support each other, safety and health for all attending and leading. ATTENTION: All recipes need to be submitted for the Fellowship Cookbook to Dodie Hickman-Kincaid or Toni Evans by SUNDAY, September 20th. Building and Grounds have been busy painting the outside and inside of the church. Dean Molz has transformed the concrete foundation of the church single-handedly. Thank you, Dean; it looks awesome! October marks the return of the Coffee Ministry and Teams. This crew arrives early and sets up the coffee stations so that we can enjoy both the smell and taste of fresh brewed coffee. They also stay after church to clean up so we can really appreciate the extra effort it takes. Extra volunteers are needed to create enough teams that each team serves one weekend per month and if you have very limited availability we could use you on 5th Sundays. A team is 3-4 people ideally but 2-3 works very well. Fill out a Serve card from the SERVE display in the Welcome area or talk to any member of the team. Barbara McKay is the coordinator for this ministry so you can also speak directly with her. Missouri Missions Offering week of prayer is finishing up over the next two days. Each day at 2 PM you have received a reminder and a request to pray for specific individuals and areas of service. In addition to this week of prayer we are asking that you contribute to the MMO offering using the envelopes in the pew during worship. Thank you for you support for the ongoing mission work. Christmas Choir is set and ready to begin THIS SUNDAY – September 20th. Rehearsals are on Sunday at 3:45-4:30 and / 6:45-7:30 (Choose ONE or come to both). The performance is Sunday, December 13th during the morning Worship time, and there will be costumed, non-speaking drama parts for many people. Sharon Campbell oversees the costumed drama, and Doug will lead the choir. Join us as we prepare to celebrate the birth of our Savior! Questions – 636.534.1580 or email worshippastor@fbcwarrenton.com. In person works as well. News from the Youth room We had a great night this last Sunday evening with our missionary friend Jair! Jair and his family came to make us some authentic food from Venezuela. We had a great time in fellowship, worship, and in the Word from Jair. We are enjoying Sunday School studying the book of Romans. The youth are growing closer to the Lord in learning about the life of Paul and all the obstacles Paul went through just to share his Faith with others. Our next event will be the Corn Maze on October 18th. We will be leaving the church at 2:30 PM to head to Shyrock Farms for their huge maze. It will be a fun time! There are flyers posted in the Youth room for our events for the next few months. Be sure to check them out! Last thing, I am asking you to come alongside me in prayer for more volunteers! We need people who love the Lord and love youth! If interested, please reach out to me Crystal Seiler - (636) 534-1605😊 Help wanted: Church Treasurer! What are the tasks of a treasurer?

INSIGHTS week of September 4th
Fellowship INSIGHTS – Week of September 4th CHURCH COUNCIL MEETING – SUNDAY – SEPTEMBER 13TH After church on Sunday, September 13th there will be a meeting of all TEAM leaders (or their next in line). The purpose of the meeting is to create a church Council that meets throughout the year to help coordinate Calendar items, Pray for each, discover how they can partner or support each other, improve communication and in general seek to better organize the purpose of Fellowship Baptist Church. Again, all teams MUST have a representative at this meeting. Also please come with dates and ideas and be prepared to participate. Welcome back HOMEGROUPS September 8th is the official start of HOMEGROUPS. The lists have been filling up, but there is still time to join a home group and invest in relationships and spiritual growth. The date and times are listed on the sign sheets for each HOMEGROUP so check out the table and sign up today! SCHOOLS BACK AND SO ARE MINISTRY OPPORTUNITES This Sunday the Women’s Ministry is recognizing four teachers who work in schools and are a light that shines God’s Love to students and families. We will also have a time of prayer and demonstrate our support for their work. Speaking of back to school – Stephanie Boden will have special announcement of how you can participate in blessing students. Roger and Elaine in Kansas – Dave Martin in the pulpit As Roger and Elaine travel to Kansas to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the church God led Roger to start, Dave Martin will fill the pulpit and deliver a message for Fellowship. Andrew List and TENT REVIVAL Have you started your Andrews LIST yet? NO. Well I have a suggestion. Your first daily prayer should be, “Lord show me someone I need to pray for and invite to the revival” October 4th – 7th. 6:30 – 7:30 pm. Pray for your list, pray over your list, and invite those on your list. WOMEN’S RETREAT UPDATE We are very excited that we have a large group of women going this year to the 2026 Women's Retreat - We will be Dancing in the Rain!!! At least 45 have signed up and paid to join us. This is the largest we have had. Thank you Jesus. We do have room for more, If you haven't signed up - please see Courtney or Connie this Sunday and we can possibly still get you added. Or send us a message. If money is an issue I think we have had a few generous people that will help with scholarships. Please reach out to us. Courtney Robertson (573-247-9486) or Connie Buchanan (636-697-8970) BACK TO CHURCH SUNDAY and Yummy fried chicken I am thankful for everyone who brought a side, or dessert, who stayed and played, or stayed and reset the Fellowship Hall. Special shoutout to Dodie who does her best to make sense of the food set up and prep. Dodie works diligently to keep our Kitchen supplied and ready to use. To that end WE NEED TO DO OUR PART! If you use the kitchen, make sure the crime scene investigators have little leftover evidence to prove it. There is a sign-up sheet that you used the kitchen, and we encourage anyone using the kitchen to coordinate that request through the church office. If you use the last one, please let Dodie know. If it needs to be washed, dried, and put away, please do that! This is a shared space and we do not pay to have it monitored or cleaned for you. We our blessed with an excellent kitchen and appliances and we need anyone who uses the resource provided to take time to clean and make sure the kitchen is ready for the next person. Church Directory Backdrop and iPad The iPad and backdrop will stay up for a few more Sundays as we make a final push to get a directory in print. To be clear, the directory is voluntary but extremely helpful when it comes to keeping us connected, not to mention how helpful it will be to a new pastor. If you need help it will be available, if you have a picture you would prefer to use, we can help with that. Either way, thank you for your cooperation and participation. Our goal is to create a paper copy in the very near future. We are SO excited that Awana begins back up next Sunday night (9/13) at 5pm! is a discipleship program with Bible teaching, Scripture memorization, games, snacks, and fellowship! The program meets weekly in the Fellowship Hall. Please be sure to register through this link
