Another glimpse of our visit to Southeastern Free Will Baptist College! In addition to spending time with students in the classroom, John Brummitt and Chris Compton joined the campus community for chapel. It’s a blessing to see these students coming together in worship as they prepare for lives of service to Christ. Thank you, Southeastern Free Will Baptist College for welcoming us!

What are we doing with what God has entrusted to us?

This morning, Chris Compton explored that question with students in a Missions class at Southeastern FWB College in Wendell, NC. Drawing from Matthew 25:14–30, the Parable of the Talents, he discussed our responsibility to faithfully steward what God has placed in our care.

Stewardship reaches beyond our finances to include our time, relationships, and opportunities to serve. We’re grateful for the opportunity to encourage these students as they prepare to serve Christ and others!

Although Audrey’s position here at RAF is mostly behind the scenes, you may recognize her from the National Convention, where she helped lead worship this past July—and the year before as well! Audrey sees her voice as a gift God has given her to use, and when she sings, she feels His presence and pleasure. Over the years, that gift has taken her into the recording studio, on the road with a worship band, onto the musical theater stage, and to the National Convention. Audrey is thankful for every opportunity God has given her to sing and looks forward to seeing what He has in store for her next! Go to www.facebook.com/reel/1619046209825186 to watch Audrey lead worship at the 2026 National Convention!

It’s National Retirement Security Week! This observance was created in 2026 to address a national concern: many Americans weren’t saving enough for retirement, and many weren’t using—or even aware of—the retirement plans available to them.

Whatever stage of ministry you’re in, take a little time this week to consider your retirement goals and how you’re preparing to reach them. Have you started saving? Are your contributions consistent? Has anything changed in your life that calls for an adjustment to your plan?

You don’t have to address everything at once. At Richland Ave Financial, we can help you understand your retirement savings options and identify your next step, whether you’re establishing an account or reviewing your current plan. Get in touch with us today! ➡️ richlandavefinancial.com/about-us/contact-us/
