Mother’s Day & Baby Dedication Sunday:

 Today we celebrate the gift of family in a special way. We honor all mothers, grandmothers, and mother‑figures for the love, strength, and faith they pour into our lives.
We also rejoice together as families dedicate their little ones to the Lord during the service. Please join us in praying for these babies and their parents as they commit to raising them in God’s love and truth.   

 Due to Mother’s Day, we will not have our Sunday Night Bible Study tonight. We will meet again next Sunday evening, May 17th at 5:00pm.
