March 22, 2026

I am excited to announce that we have two new gospel partners. At our recent business meeting, our members voted to begin supporting Donna Bixby and Christian Learning Centers of Greenville. You can learn more about the CLC’s work in public schools and Donna's work in the Central African Republic at morningside.org/missions.

I am grateful to have Pastor Surrett on staff and look forward to him preaching for us this morning, as Karie and I are ministering at The Wilds today.

Our life groups meet tonight and again on April 12. If you don’t have a life group, learn more and sign up at morningside.org/life-groups. Pastor Miller is preaching for our PM gathering (5 PM, Chapel).
