Hello Men,

Thank you for being part of the Team for FaithWalk Jackson 43! We’re excited to serve alongside each of you and to see what the Lord is going to do.

As a reminder, our Walk will be April 11-14 at The Lakeshore Campground. The Team meetings will begin February 22nd and we will meet each Thursday night until the Walk begins. The meetings will be held at West Jackson Baptist Church.

Team Fees this year are $220 dollars and will be due no later than the start of the 3rd meeting. Feel free to pay online on the FaithWalk website or you can pay by cash or check at the team meetings.

There are still openings for believers so if you haven’t already, begin praying about who God would have you to encourage for this coming walk. Also, please login to the FaithWalk website and get a jump on the prayer vigil for the ladies. How awesome would it be if we could fill the prayer vigil for #44 before meetings even begin.

Please be diligent in prayer for this Walk – for the Believers, for our Team, and for the leadership. We know our Father has great plans for every man that sets foot on the campground and our prayer is that through each of us, He be glorified!

We look forward to getting together with you to fellowship and worship as we prepare for FWJ 43!

See you soon!
