- Memorial Day has become our unofficial start to summer! In 1971, America set apart Memorial Day as a holiday to honor US personnel who died while serving in the military. We ought to return honor where honor is due. Today, we remember those who have fallen that we might flourish. Because we live in a country where we are free to worship and express gospel ideas today, we do return thanks to God for this, even as we gather for worship.

- Between Mother's Day and Father's Day, we are partnering with Trotter House of Posey County for their Baby Bottle Fundraiser. Each family is invited to take home a baby bottle from the welcome center and fill it with loose change, bills, and/or checks to help the Trotter House provide help to families in our community. We ask that these bottles be returned by Father's Day.

- Vacation Bible School starts next Sunday, May 31st, and continues through Thursday, June 4th! Please register your children online if you haven't already and pick up some invitation cards at the welcome center to hand out to families and children in our community so that they can hear more about Jesus.

- The next Sunday, June 7th, is our next members meeting at 1:30 pm. Printed packets are available at the welcome center, and we ask that one packet be taken per family. Or, if you'd prefer, Pastor John can email you a soft-copy PDF version. Just let him know.

- Today's sermon is from James 1:5-11. Our bulletin is available on our website, mvbaptist.church/bulletin. On our website, you can submit prayer requests and give. You may worship through giving by placing your offering in the plates between the double doors just after worship.
