BULLETIN
March 15, 2026
I want to thank and praise the Lord for His provision and spirit of unity He gave at our business meeting this past Wednesday. We are grateful all items passed with a 93% vote or higher, and we give God the glory for his continued faithfulness to our church.
This morning, following the service, I invite anyone interested in learning more about membership to join me upstairs for our Starting Point class (11:15 AM, 231).
This evening our sermon comes from pastor, evangelist, and cancer patient Bob Roberts. Following the evening service, we will honor Jennifer Michaels on her recent retirement form MBC & ODBM. A reception will be held in the Chapel, and notes of appreciation are welcome.
