First Baptist Church, Pell City, on mission

Frank Hopson, David Mullins and Pastor John Thweatt from First Baptist Church, Pell City, went to Mount Elgon in Kenya in late October. The trip was planned with David Crane, an International Mission Board representative who works in East Africa.

The team from the St. Clair Baptist Association church worked with four local Baptist churches. Using Chronological Bible Storying, team members shared stories of Abraham, Isaac, the Passover, creation and Christ.

“I think the best part of the trip was spending time each morning and evening with the four pastors we worked with. We all stayed in the same place, shared our meals and spent quite a lot of time just talking about the Bible (and) what God is doing in our lives and doing discipleship,” Thweatt said.
