May 2023 Announcements

Wow, I can’t believe we are approaching the end of another school year already? Time really flies when you’re having fun.

I would like to take just a few minutes to tell you about this week’s announcements.

May Birthdays & Anniversaries

Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary to all our members and friends who are celebrating this month. On behalf of Pastor Garner, we pray that God will make sure that there is never a shortage of love and care in your life. May this birthday or Anniversary become the most memorable day in your life! Happy birthday and happy anniversary to you!

Christian Education

SUNDAY SCHOOL

Please join us every Sunday morning at 9:00am for our Sunday Biblical teaching. This month we will be teaching on “Holy Habits” by Pastor Derwin Gray in the main sanctuary for all ages.

BIBLE STUDY

Tuesday Bible study is offered at 11:00am and 6:00pm. Come join us May 9th through June 20th and find out if you have a seat at the table as we begin our series titled “Table Talks” by Bianca Juarez. Come out and have your life transformed.

YOUTH MINISTRY

Parents: please bring your children out Tuesday evenings at 6:00pm to Youth ministry with sister Alice Reid. As a reminder, when we stand upon the foundation of Christ, we are more able to notice and withstand Satan’s influences in our lives.

Movie Day (Jesus Revolution)

This is an invitation for all SBWC members and friends to come out Saturday, May 13th at 1:00 PM.

This movie is a true story of a national spiritual awakening in the early 1970s Where a charismatic street preacher and a pastor open the doors of the church to a stream of wandering youth. What unfolds is a counterculture movement that becomes the greatest spiritual awakening in American history.

The movie will be shown in the Fellowship Hall. So, if you are planning to attend, please use the signup sheet in the foyer.

Mother’s Day

May 14th – the 2nd Sunday in May.

Mothers are special because they are always there when needed, they are willing to let go even when it hurts. Mothers are special because they care enough to say no when needed. Mothers are special because they always welcome you with an open heart and open arms, and they love unconditional. Isaiah 66:13 says, “For this is what the Lord says, as a mother comforts her son, so I will comfort you”. Please mark your calendars for

Senior Social

The senior adult ministry will meet on the 3rd Wednesday of every month from 11am to 2pm, which will be on May 17th. That’s right, so please mark your calendars so that you can take part in some great activities and fellowship.

Fully Fit Café

Hello SBWC, fully fit family and friends. Our Fully Fit Fitness program is cancelled May 20th due to our WOW Ministry fellowship. We will resume our normal schedule of the first and the third Saturday next month.

Fully Fit Finance Class

As a follow up to Pastor’s series on faith, family, fitness, and finance. We will begin our 10-week finance class Wednesday, May 10th at 6:00pm. This is just another part of our journey in becoming fully fit. Pastor Garner will be contacting all those who have signed up to confirm that you will be attending the class.

Women of Worth Ministry   

Our next WOW fellowship is scheduled for Saturday, May 20th. 10:00am to 2:00pm.

Our theme is “The Master Designer”. We will have a fashion show to demonstrate how we as children of God should dress and still be fashionable. We will have a light lunch and be taught the word of God.

Ephesians 2:10 (CSB), “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do.”

Join us for faith, fellowship, and fashion as we come together once again to empower, uplift, inspire, share, and learn how to embrace being the women of worth that God has created us to be.  You may register online at SBW.center or complete the sign-up sheet in the lobby. Remember this event is for all ladies ages 11 and up.
