Announcements and Upcoming Events

  • For the safety of those entering the building, the fire extinguishers have all been inspected and upgraded where necessary. Smoke detectors have also been installed throughout the building where previously there wasn’t one. Thanks go to Charlie Grimes and Greg Lance for taking care of this.
  • On Sunday mornings, please remember to park in the parking lot instead of parking on the street. We want to be good neighbors to those who use the street to park in front of their house. Thank you. 
  • The Food Ministry is held every Thursday at 9:30 am.
  • The deadline for information to be placed in the Sunday bulletin is Tuesday.

The Evangelism Committee is sponsoring a play to be held on Saturday, May 17. The play is called Hotel Heaven. This is a humorous play in which several people present the reasons why each may or may not be admitted, to the receptionist at Hotel Heaven. The committee needs to know if people are interested in helping to put this play on. It requires 12 actors, music, and praise dancers. We also plan to have a luncheon before the show. Please let Carolyn Backus know if you are interested. 
The Wilmington District Lay Recognition is April 14, 2014. Each Church family in the Wilmington District will be honor- ing one member of their church for the contributions made to that church.
