BULLETIN
June 7, 2026
Matt Sands is driving a truck down to Greenville as his family prepares for their move. Please pray for his safety as he travels. If you are available tomorrow from 9:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m., we would appreciate your help unloading his items into the Miller Ministry House. Your assistance will be a great encouragement to the Sands family. We are excited to welcome the Sands in July and look forward to Matt joining our staff as Youth Pastor.
This morning, we are holding our membership interest class, Starting Point. If you are interested in learning more about becoming a member, join me at 11:15 AM upstairs in Room 231.
This evening, is our family night. Our own member Ben Plumb will present his missions ministry, and there will be in a Kids Moment from Paul Fields too. After the service we will have games in the gym.
