Battle Buddies



Psalm 46:7

"The Lord Almighty is with us, the God of Jacob is our fortress."





Battle Buddies is a new area of ministry which the Men's Ministry will implement in the remaider of 2010 and carry through 2011. In 2010, First Baptist Church was host to an event for "Wounded Warriors". From this heartwarming effort was developed the question of what else we can do for our military personnel? The Men's Ministry believes we can do much to show our heroes what they mean to us, as we provide meaningful works and fellowship to these members of our community. This ministry is going to be fun, meaningful for everyone involved, and it will glorify our Lord.

As a new area of ministry, "Battle Buddies" will be undergoing much tailoring during this first year. In such a patriotic community as Panama City, surrounded by military bases, the impact for our military personnel will be immense and, most importantly, pleasing to our Lord.
Purpose
To involve Christ-centered men in the support to our members of the military and their families that will provide fellowship, support, and encouragement. This support will address the rigors and stresses associated in serving our nation's military. It is intended that the "Battle Buddies" ministry program will not only be for military members and their families while in the Panama City area, but to provide a network of support to those separated due to long or short term deployments. The ministry will also assist and support wounded warriors as a result of injuries sustained during combat operations and to enable members and families to continue to serve a Christ-centered life.
