BULLETIN
October 11, 2026
Today is our Homecoming Service, and I am thankful to the Lord for 68 years of His faithfulness to Morningside Baptist Church. By His grace, we look forward to many more years of serving Him. I am grateful to have Aaron Coffey with us today. He will preach in both our morning and evening services as we begin our Gospel Conference. This week includes Women’s Night Monday with Stephanie Coffey, Men’s Night Tuesday with Aaron Coffey, and Teen Night Wednesday, where Aaron will speak following the games (no Awana or prayer meeting). Both the men’s and women’s events will include a cornhole tournament. Signup in the lobby or online.
I am also excited to begin Ministry Mentoring this Sunday at 11:15 in Room 231 for college students interested in ministry. Aaron will join us to answer questions and encourage our students.
Thank you to everyone who donated snacks for Good News Club! We have plenty for now. Thank you for helping us reach students in our public schools with the Gospel.
