HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
    We extend a special welcome to all mothers who are with us this morning. You are very special people. Your hard work, love and dedication to your children has had a profound impact on their lives. We honor you this morning.
    And we also remember and honor mothers who are unable to be with us on this Mother’s Day whether because of distance or through death. Whatever the circumstances, we thank God for each mother’s decision, however long ago, to give us birth.
    Through the years mothers have made countless sacrifices on behalf of their children for which little, if any, recognition was given. May God richly bless you for all you have done.

GIDEON UPDATE
    A representative from The Gideons International will be with us next Sunday morning, May 18, to give us an inspiring ten-minute update on the work The Gideons are doing around the world with Bible distribution. A love offering will be taken after the service to further the work of The Gideons.
