SUMMER SABBATH SUNDAYS will continue through Sunday, Sept. 1. We suspend Sunday Studies, regular choir practice and small groups in order to rest and renew our spirits.

STUDY LEAVE: Rev. Meisterman will be on study leave through Monday, June 17. Rev. Hagler will fill the pulpit and will be on call at (901) 628-2104 or anneh6616@gmail.com.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR: Beale Canto in concert, Saturday, June 8, at 7 p.m. in the sanctuary.

BEGIN THE PILGRIMAGE TO PENTECOST: The Mid-South Presbytery’s Pentecost event will be June 9 at Rhodes College. Worship is set for 3:30 p.m. in the Bryan Campus Life Center.

HEADSETS for improved hearing are available in the sound booth at the window side of the sanctuary.

DON’T FORGET the FOOD CART! Hundreds of families depend on your donations. With the uncertainty with the availability of government assistance this month, let’s make sure the Food Pantry has plenty of food to tide them over.

VOLUNTEERS for the PRE-SCHOOL ARE NEEDED during Sunday worship time. All of our children are precious gifts, and we are so blessed to have them. If you would be willing to give up your worship time for one Sunday and spend that time with the children, please contact the church office or Glenda Ellis, and we'll get you scheduled for service.

CHAIR YOGA meets Tuesdays and Thursdays at 12:30pm in the Fellowship area. Build increased flexibility and better balance with these low-impact yoga exercises. For more information, contact Lynn Ward.
