MISSIONS NIGHT
This is going to be a great night for the adults and kids of Forward to get a better understanding of local and global missions. You will have the opportunity to hear from three different mission’s groups that we partner with as a church. Make sure to leave that night open so that you can attend!
There will be childcare offered for children ages 5 and under. We highly encourage the older children to attend with parents so that they can learn about the mission field from these amazing groups.
This Sunday will be the last day to register for Family Dedication on May 8th!
This is a special day as families stand before the congregation and dedicate their children and family to a Christ-centered life.
If you have children that you haven’t had dedicated yet be sure to register by clicking the link below, or at the Welcome Center on Sunday morning!
If you have any questions, you can contact Shawn Neal at shawn@forwardchurchfamily.com.
On Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 8th, we will once again have Mike and Cheese catering a meal for you to join in with us after service! The meal will be free of charge for you! It will be a time for us to fellowship as a church family and also get to celebrate any mother’s with us that day.
Every mother in attendance for service that day will also receive a special gift 🙂

Chest Of Joash
The Chest of Joash provides an opportunity to give above and beyond the normal tithe. The money from it goes directly to work needed done on our building.
In 2 Chronicles 24 we find Joash repairing the temple and a chest was set outside of it for people to bring a tithe that was used to pay the workers restoring the temple. Verse 10 says, “And all the princes and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished.”
A huge THANK YOU to all of you who have joyfully donated just as the Israelite officials and people did!
You can give to the Chest of Joash by clicking the button below and selecting “Chest of Joash” in the drop down menu.
