A Note from Pastor Phillips: Thank you for coming to worship with us today. If you are a first -time visitor, I would sure like the opportunity to meet you and welcome you personally. Because I believe in a Sovereign God, I don’t believe anything happens by chance. I believe you were brought here for a purpose. I would love to help you discover that purpose, and to see if there is any way we as a church can bless and minister to you and your family. Please stop by the Resource Center after the service so I can shake your hand. I’d sure count it a privilege. Pastor Harold DEACONS’ MEETING TONIGHT: We will hold our first Deacons’ meeting of 2016 this evening after our worship service. THANK YOU FOR SHARING JESUS THIS CHRISTMAS: Thank you to everyone in our church family who donated time, gifts, food and talent to minister to others this Christmas. God’s name was glorified, and His Gift of love echoed in your efforts! NO CREAM OF THE CROP DINNER IN JANUARY: Cream of the Crop will not be meeting for Sunday dinner in January. PRAISE AND WORSHIP PIANAST NEEDED: We are in need of a pianist for Praise and Worship time every other Sunday for both services. Ability to read music (just chords) needed. If you are interested, please see Pastor Josh. ATTENTION LADIES: You’re invited to join THE TEA TIME QUILTERS, which meets the second Saturday of every month (8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in the Youth Center) to quilt and fellowship. We share devotions, quilting ideas & techniques, mission projects, road trips and each others’ company! You are welcome to visit a meeting or two to see if you’d like to join this group of talented women. We’d love to have you! If you have any questions, please contact Deb Dodsworth at 410-378-0620. ADDRESS UPDATES: We are in the process of preparing yearend giving statements. If you have moved and/or began attending our church within the last year, please e-mail your current mailing address to
[email protected] to ensure that your giving record can be mailed out for tax preparation purposes. Thank you.
Thank you for joining us today for worship. Your presence was a blessing. If you are interested in learning about church membership, we have a “First Steps” class which meets in the Youth Center (Jr. Church area) at 9:00 a.m. each Sunday. It’s a great place to start! If there is any way that our church can assist you or your family, please contact the office at 410-378-4476. We pray that you have been blessed, and have found that coming to Pleasant View Baptist Church is truly . . . like coming home.
