October is going to be an outstanding month. We are off
to a pretty good start with our “Finish the Task” financial
campaign. However, there are many classes that have not
yet been informed of how they can be involved. Bible
Study teachers, we are counting on you or someone in
your class to communicate the program to your class
members. God has blessed us with the new facility and
now it is our turn to bless Him with 100% participation
with our offerings.
“Amazing Love Sunday” is scheduled for October
12th. Junior Hill is one of God’s most gifted evangelists.
When he leaves our church you will say, “That was the
most loving preacher I have ever heard.” Whenever he
preaches, God reaches from Heaven and saves the lives
of so many dear people. We will start the day with high
attendance in Bible Study, make sure every member is
present and brings a guest. Junior Hill will preach in the
morning service, and we are praying that hearts will be
touched and changed for the Savior. At 5:00 p.m., we are
planning our annual Taylor Gating. Bible Study classes
and the Children and Youth Departments are going to
have a great time eating and fellowshipping together
as we tail gate until 6:15 p.m. At 6:30 p.m., we will have
an awesome Evening Worship Service with Junior Hill
preaching once again. This is going to be a day of fun; but
most importantly we are praying for Spiritual Renewal in
all hearts. The music all day is going to be outstanding
and truly it will be a day of “Amazing Love!” Do not miss
hearing Michael Jones as he sings, “I Bowed on My Knees.”
Please look carefully on the age group pages of this
Archway for information about
Charlotte’s Web, the Student Concert, and of course
Taylor Road Treats the Town! This is going to be a great
month, and don’t forget this is the month that the moon
turns into a football, as if you needed the reminder.
In His Love,
Andy

Jola and Laura. Yes they are names, but for me, they are
new friends. From June 23-July 8, I had the incredible
opportunity to return to Katowice, Poland to be part of a
mission trip with Josiah Venture involving a volleyball/
English camp. Josiah Venture’s mission is equipping young
leaders in Eastern Europe to fulfill Christ’s commission and
they are presently in 11 former communist countries. For
me personally, Poland has stolen my heart.
During the summer months, these camps are offered in
several locations throughout Poland. Many of the Polish
youth sign up to attend because learning English, or
becoming more fluent in the language, is necessary if they
want to “better” their lives. Our Katowice camp was a
pioneer in bringing in the venue of volleyball to offer to the
Poles which is why I have gone these past two summers.
Because volleyball is huge in Poland, our numbers were
very high this year with 38 signed up for volleyball alone.
There were 30+ signed up for English.
Another area of opportunity to serve the Poles is in the area
of construction and renovations. JV Poland is in the midst
of renovating and bringing up to European code a large
“camp” facility, H20, that will be used for outreach, training
leaders and pastors, future camps, etc. There have been
several groups from the states, Canada, and Poland to come
work at the facility but there is much work yet to be done.
One word that describes the Poles as a whole is
hopelessness. Perhaps it originated because they were
behind the Iron Curtain for all those years but even now
in the freedom they have, they still appear to lack hope.
Overall, they are a warm-hearted people relationally, but
hard-hearted in the spiritual realm. They need Jesus Christ
who is our eternal hope!
I am thankful for the opportunity to go and serve them and it
is my prayer that others will be called to GO and serve these
beautiful people as well.

Self Defense ClassBeginning October 19
meets @ 5:30 p.m.Facilitated by Holly Faems
You should NOT need to be a trained martial artist to be able
to protect yourself. This seminar is a practical approach to
safety. First, how not to become a victim; and second, simple
and concise advice on the parts of the anatomy that make a
great target and the parts that make a great weapon. There
are no complex “take downs”, “holds”, “arm-bars”, “pressure
points” or other methods that require repeated practice to
perfect. This is simply practical tips on how to avoid conflict if
possible, and how to get out of it, if necessary. The goal is not
to use force, just get away. However, difficult situations will be
addressed and discussed so the time of need is not the time to
consider the repercussions.
Junior Hill began his ministry at age nineteen and served as a pastor for eleven years in Alabama and Mississippi before entering vocational evangelism in 1967 as a full-time Southern Baptist evangelist.
A native of Hartselle, Alabama, he re-ceived his BS degree from Samford Univer-sity, Birmingham, Alabama and his Master of Divinity from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, New Orleans, Loui-siana. He received the Doctor of Divinity degree from Liberty University, Lynchburg,
Virginia.
He has served as First Vice-President of the Southern Baptist Convention and in 1995 was recognized as the Distinguished Alumnus Of The Year by New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.
He has conducted over 1600 revivals and numerous foreign crusades. In addition he is a frequent speaker at pastors’ meetings, evangelism conferences, seminaries and state conventions across the country.

Amazing Love Sunday Taylor
Gating. We will leave the Church
at 4:00 p.m. on Sunday October

As a Student Ministry we are going
to dig a water well in Peru. Over 1
billion people in the world do not
have clean water and every fifteen
seconds someone dies from drink-
ing unclean water. We cannot give
water to all 1 billion people, but we
can give water to thousands with
this water well. The organization that
we are working with is Living Water

Our small group Bible studies take place every Sunday Morning

and grow in community with other students, it is essential that you become an active participant
in a small group.
Do You Wish You Had Studied Music When You Were a Child?
Many of us took piano lessons when we were young, and after a brief period of time we begged to quit. Now,
we say, “I wish I had kept taking piano lessons”. Well, on the same note, your children have a wonderful op-
portunity to be involved in children’s choir each Sunday afternoon at 5:30 p.m. They can learn about the fun-
damentals of music while singing and working on the Christmas musical. The directors are some of the finest
musicians who attend our church. Wouldn’t you like to take voice lessons for free from Michael Jones or Cindy
Smith? Well, essentially, that’s what your kids can do if they just become a part of children’s choir each Sunday
at 5:30 p.m. Please have your kids start this Sunday, or contact one of the following for more information:
Pre-School Melanie Fore1-3 Grade Michael Jones 4-6 Grade Cindy Smith
Get involved. You’ll be blessed.
Are There Bells Ringing in Your Head?
If you are wandering around the church on Sunday after-noons and you are hearing bells, you may be:
• Crazy• In need of some regular exercise• Hearing our Handbell Choir practice
Yes, the Handbells are back. If you read music even a little, you might want to consider being a part of the Handbell Choir. The Handbell Choir meets on Sundays at 5:30 p.m. If you are interested in more information, please see Linda
Holladay or call her at 244-7282.
You Now Have A Choice How To Receive Archways!
Beginning with the November edition of Archways you will have the option to receive Archways via email versus standard mail.
Taylor Road began printing Archways in house in April 2008 and doubled the amount of content to 8 pages along with still saving approximately 20 cents a copy off the cost of the printing company. The Bulletin and all other publications and mail pieces are also printed in house now saving Taylor Road even more money. While this savings is great, we want to continue to be good stewards of the money God has given us. Some people may not be comfortable with receiving Archways via email, and for you we definitely want you to get the print version. But if you would like to help to continue to save more money all you would need to do is email - [email protected]. When you email make sure to include your name along with all email addresses that you would like added onto the monthly email list. Another benefit of this method is that you will receive Archways sooner than everyone else and will be the first to hear what is happening next month or to read a story about what is going on around the church!
Again the email address to contact is - [email protected]. Include your name, and all email addresses for you and your family that you would like a copy of Archways emailed to.
Finish the TaskAs a student ministry we are challenging every student to not have a soda or
coffee each week and give at least one dollar every Sunday Morning for the next
three years. If we can do that we will help finish the task of paying for the New
Facility by raising $11,000. Parents please encourage your students begin now by
being generous by expanding the Kingdom of God!

NARNIA December 19th will be a great night for musical theatre here at Taylor Road. The musical Narnia is very special in
the way that it captures the childlike faith needed to become a Christian. The wonder and majesty of the story is a
beautiful picture of Christ’s love for the church. We still have many spots available for you to participate. If you are
talented in organizing, cooking, decorating, sewing, building, painting, advertising/marketing, or anything else, there is a
spot for you. This show will raise money for the building fund, so please get involved! Call Ruth Givens at 462-4894 if
you are interested.
Taylor Road “Treats the Town” will be on Friday, October 31 from 6-8pm. This is an opportunity for our church to
reach out to the community by providing a “safe place” for the children and families. Each Sunday School class will
sponsor a booth. We will have inflatables, food, games and treat street. If the shopping centers and malls can use this
holiday to draw shoppers, the church can provide a “safe place” for parents to take their kids.
When you say the word “Halloween” to Christians today, you are likely to get a strong reaction. The holiday’s
growing emphasis on the occult and macabre has turned Halloween into a controversial topic within Christian
circles. On the other hand, thanks to retailers and Hollywood, each year the Halloween holiday seems to grow overall
in popularity and prominence within our culture. We are not the only ones concerned about this—the once fun-
filled holiday. Over the years, the crimes associated with the celebration of Halloween have increased. Today law
enforcement officials and medical authorities all recommend a great deal of caution when sending children out on
Halloween.
As a church, we do not need to be afraid of Halloween. Instead of ignoring the holiday, we want to use the popularity
and buzz around Halloween as an opportunity to shine God’s light into the holiday’s darkness! As stated in Romans
12:21, “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”
