Special thanks to all who participated in making this a special day for our church

family. We continue to praise God for those who lead in worship – our choirs, orchestra, worship teams; for our ABF leaders and participants who facilitated the set ups and hosting in each lunch room this morning; for Chef Bob and his excellent food skills; for our students who distributed our food to each serving location; and to our team of church leaders who envisioned and planned for this Family Fellowship Sunday.

Next Chapter Renovation

We anticipate the April 4 beginning date for the start of the Worship Center renovation

portion of the Next Chapter Initiative.

Plans are underway for moving the Morning Worship services to the High

School Gymnasium, keeping the current morning schedule of Worship Services

and Middle Hour Ministries.

Beginning next Sunday, March 6, we will communicate more details on

this transition and begin asking for assistance in both set up and tear down

for each weekend. We anticipate needing teams of 15 volunteers to facilitate this

endeavor each weekend, and look forward to your participation.

Today is a special family celebration for us.

We are God’s children, a family of believers, reflecting the breadth and diversity of the kingdom of God.

It is good for families to worship and eat together, so that is what we want to do today.

We will also hear from several members of the HPBC family this morning as they encourage us with some important lessons they have learned as they worship, grow, and go.

Brent

Go: Detroit

As introduced in each of the Worship Services last week, HPBC will be

There are many opportunities to serve with a group from our church for one day

or up to a week. Details are at the Go: Detroit table in the Atrium Foyer.

Refugee Relief

For those who might be interested in considering a short-term trip to serve

refugees in Macedonia, SEND International will be hosting a meeting

in the Atrium Cafe at 12:40pm next Sunday, March 6 in the Atrium Café.

For further information, please plan to attend this meeting.
