Lincoln Parish Police Jury Update: All departments, the courthouse, and the landfill will be closed on January 17, 2024 due to inclement weather.

City of Ruston: All City of Ruston municipal offices will remain closed Wednesday, January 17, 2024, due to current road conditions and forecasted low temperatures tonight. Garbage trucks will not run Wednesday morning. Updated garbage schedules will be posted Wednesday afternoon.

Churches (Tuesday, Jan. 16): First Baptist Church – We have consulted with the police and sheriff departments and have decided to cancel our service tonight. We feel like the roads are still too dangerous to travel on. However, we will be able to stream a Life Action sermon by Brent. We hope that you can join us on our website or Facebook at 6:00 pm tonight.

The church follows the Lincoln Parish Schools, so therefore the church office is closed today and tomorrow. We are planning to have our Wednesday night meal and our Life Action service tomorrow at 6:00 pm.

Thanks

First Baptist Staff

Churches (Wednesday, Jan. 17):

Temple Baptist Church – With continued freezing temperatures and poor road conditions, we have decided to cancel all Wednesday Night Activities for January 17.

The Church Office will be open from 12 – 5 p.m. Wednesday, January 17.
