155 years ago Liberty Baptist Church at Martin was founded. The church is celebrating its anniversary Sunday and you are invited. Pastor Harry Bamburg says it will be a very special service in their recently completed new sanctuary.

Also, Liberty Baptist is beginning a week long revival. The Evangelist is Brother Sam Moore and the music will be lead by Brother Price Harris.

The local American Legion and Auxiliary is hosting a get together of the participants from Red River Parish who went to Boys and Girls State this past summer. It will be Tuesday, August 15th at 6:00 pm at First Baptist Church. The young people will report on this years program.

The Journal got a note from Congressman Mike Johnson’s office reminding you of some of the services offered by his office. You can get help with federal agencies, grant applications, and purchasing a US flag that few over the US Capitol. Full information at http://www.mikejohnson.house.gov.

Social Springs is planning a mens’ conference and revival in early September. Check Brother James Hester’s Facebook page for details.
