We have some special gifts to give away this Sunday for every woman in honor of Mom's everywhere.  Even if you're not a Mom, we want to give you a gift in honor of your Mom or in honor of someone who has been LIKE A MOM to you!

 

We also have a very special song that our 'gals' will be doing during the service.  All the women are invited to participate!  If you can come to the Mosaic Campus THIS Thursday night at 8:30pm to practice the song, that would be very awesome!  If you have more questions on this, please send them to info@blessedhopecc.org.

 

This is a perfect time for you to invite your family  and friends to come to BHCC!  Last week, one Mom informed me that she had told her kids that the ONLY thing she wants for Mother's Day is for them to come to church with her.  I LOVE IT!  What a great thing Mom is teaching them still!

 

I NEED YOUR HELP on something else for the service as well.  During our 'special' song this Sunday, we are going to be showing "MOM' pictures on the BIG screen.  LADIES: Please EMAIL us a picture of either you and your Mom, or you and your kids! GUYS: Please EMAIL us a picture of you and your Mom! The pictures could be of anyone who has been LIKE a Mom to you as well.  Please send them ASAP to info@Blessedhopecc.org. !!!

 

TONIGHT is our wednesday Bible study at the Mosaic Cafe from 7-8:30pm.  Only 2 weeks left of this study so don't MISS OUT!  Everyone is invited to come and join in on the learning, fun and fellowship!

 

I want to say a special thank you to all of you who have continued to support Blessed Hope CC through the giving of your time, your prayers and your tithes!  I know so many people at BHCC who are giving sacrificially and I know God continues to bless you and take care of all your needs because you are putting Him first! 

 

For those of you who haven't yet discovered the JOY of giving generously to God, I encourage you to pray about it and to ask God to take the fear out of giving!  Tithing is truly an act of FAITH!

Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit which increases to your account.
