Trunk or Treat

First Moore is excited to host a night of fun, food, games, and more for the family on Sunday, October 27 from 5:00-7:00pm.

There are many opportunities for the people of First Moore to serve our community. You could decorate a space and hand out candy, donate candy, help with food, inflatables, parking, registration, and more.

What is Trunk or Treat?  Trunk or Treat is an outreach event for the families and children in our community. Trunk or Treat is similar to a Fall Festival in that it serves as a safe and fun alternative to traditional Halloween activities. It also provides a great opportunity to connect with our community.

When is Trunk or Treat?  Sunday, October 27 from 5:00pm-7:00pm.

How does a Trunk or Treat work?  At a Trunk or Treat event, people decorate their trunks and give candy or prizes to the children as they walk by. (You could even have a game in your area if you would like.) We have set a goal for 60 decorated trunks to help make this a fun family event. (The church will provide the candy!) This year, put your creative caps on because we will have a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes for the best-decorated trunks!

How can I be a part of this event?  There are several ways that you can be a part:

  • Decorating a trunk and pass out candy.

  • Donating wrapped candy to be handed out. (There are candy donation boxes around the church to drop off your candy.)

  • Work at the Snack Stop.

  • Help set up/run activities. (connector team, inflatables, pumpkin painting, safety team, etc.)

  • Help clean up following the event.

Save this picture to your phone and send it to those you want to invite to Trunk or Treat!

Pray for Japan

  • First Moore Baptist Church (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Some members of First Moore have a unique opportunity to join with a sister church in Japan (Tokyo Baptist Church- TBC) and help bring the gospel to some communities in and around Tokyo, Japan.   Please support our mission team by lifting them in prayer before the Father during this time. Please pray as the Lord leads you. Please use the following daily prompts as “starters” for your own prayers on their behalf each day.  If you’re uncertain what to say, pray the verses included for each day!  

 

Monday, 7/22 - Departing OKC around 7:30 AM. After months of anticipation, the team is excited to get going!  Pray for them as they journey many, many hours to have traveling mercies - make all their flight connections, luggage travels with them, and everyone remains healthy. Pray they can rest on the long flights. Ask the Lord to help them be salt and light at all times despite being with “new” travel partners and being away from family and their usual routines. (Col 4:5-6)

Tuesday, 7/23 - Finally arriving in Tokyo around 4 pm Tokyo time.  The team plans to eat supper then get some sleep. Pray that their bodies can easily adapt to the time difference, and that the Lord will grant them rest and recovery from the flights. Pray they can embrace new sights, sounds, and smells as many visit Japan for the first time.  (Is 30:15)

 Wednesday, 7/24 - The team will begin with orientation and have a time of prayer together, followed by lunch. Pray they will each have a learner’s heart and bond quickly as  co-laborers. The early evening will be devoted to prayer walking and evangelism at the Shibuya train station. Ask the Holy Spirit to grant them spiritual insight as they cover the area in prayer on behalf of the lost of the Shibuya area as well as the believers of the local congregation of Tokyo Baptist Church. Ask for “divine conversations” with curious commuters who are interested in spiritual conversations or just practicing their English with an American!  (Col 1:28-29)

Thursday, 7/25 - Pray for the team as they minister in the afternoon to many seniors through the local ministry. Pray they will boldly love these dear ones in ways that clearly reflect how much God loves them. Pray for continued insight and impact as they return to the station in the early evening for more prayer walking/evangelism. (Ps 92:12-15)

Friday, 7/26 - Daytime hours are free time and may be spent in touring, resting, etc.  Pray for each team member to have a growing understanding of local culture and spiritual needs, as well as insight into their own personal walk with the Lord.  (Ps 73: 25-28) As they return to the station in the early evening, pray for key conversations and spiritual breakthroughs among the lost of Shibuya. 

Saturday, 7/27 - Pray for leadership and each team member to have servant hearts, reflecting the heart of Christ (Phil 2: 5-11) as they serve refreshments at the TBC English Cafe where local citizens have been invited to learn and practice their English skills (a favorite of many Japanese!).   Pray for believing hearts to be knit together in the love and unity of the Spirit as our team joins in evening worship with Japanese believers. 

Sunday, 7/28 - Ask for traveling mercies as the team journeys about two hours away to help lead worship among another community (TBC-Misato) of local believers. Ask that these believers will be encouraged by the love, prayers, and service of the team during a time of praise, studying God’s Word together, and sharing a fellowship meal afterwards. Ask the Lord to give the team and local believers insight into how best to help bring the Good News to the citizens of Misato.  (Col 3:12-17)

Monday, 7/29 - As the team ministers alongside a local Detention Ministry, pray they will be salt and light to both those serving time as well as the guards and other staff. Pray that His light will shine brightly in the midst of darkness. Pray for detainees to have openness to a Christian praying with them for concerns for themselves and their families. (Matt 25: 35-40)  Pray for the team to have spiritual and physical endurance as well as boldness as they spend the afternoon in prayer walking and evangelism at a local park.   If the Lord allows, they may be able to minister to homeless in the park. Pray for wisdom and divine conversations to draw those they meet closer to knowing the Lord personally.  (Eph 6: 19-20)

Tuesday, 7/30 - This is intended as a free day for the team. Lift them up as they process all they have experienced and prepare to return to their home culture. Sometimes coming back home can be a greater challenge than going. The team will have had experiences and challenges that friends and family back home might not fully relate to. Ask the Lord to prepare all of us to receive them back and have eager, listening hearts as they use words and photos to share all they’ve seen the Lord do. (Ps 75:1)

 Wednesday, 7/31 - The team will depart Tokyo and return, Lord willing, all in the same day, despite many hours of travel time. Ask again for traveling mercies. Ask the Lord to speak clearly to each individual as well as our congregation at First Moore to understand how He wants us to partner with Him and working with other laborers in His harvest fields around the world. (John 4:34-38)

Church Work Day

Our annual Church Work Day will take place on Saturday, April 6. This is a day when all ages come to the campus to help clean, pull weeds, trim hedges and trees, touch up paint, remove trash, freshen the flower beds, and whatever else that may need to be done. God has entrusted us with a large campus that requires much work. Helping on this day is a great way to build relationships and grow closer as a church body! If you have one hour or all four hours, we’d be glad to see you there! Save the date and come and help.
