Move Up Sunday is coming soon for our forKids and Propel ministries!
If your child is going in to one of the following grade levels this fall they will be moving up to their next class starting on Sunday, June 2nd:
Kindergarten – God City
3rd Grade – The Dig
6th Grade – Propel Middle
9th Grade – Worship Center
Our ministry leaders will be working on preparing for this switch over the next couple of weeks. Please be sure they are aware if your child will be going into one of these grades in the fall.
Beginning, Sunday May 26th, the Sunday School class will begin chapter studies in Psalms and Proverbs. Psalm 1 tells us there is a blessing for those who delight and meditate on God’s Word. Join us as we study, delight and meditate on God’s life changing Word.
This will be a 12 week study. Please join us Sundays from 9-10am in the classroom behind the Worship Center.
Thank you to all the ladies who signed up to serve the women at Breakaway.
The next Breakaway Meal will be Sunday evening, June 2nd. We will need around 5 women to help provide a meal and come out to visit with the women in the Breakaway home for a couple of hours. This is a great opportunity to serve the ladies literally in our backyard.
For questions, text or call Tonia Hatfield (phone number provided at the Welcome Center). Sign up this Sunday if you are able to help.
All men of Forward are invited to join in Tuesday mornings for Bible study. Meeting at Coffee Crossing in downtown New Albany from 7:00-8:00am, the men will be studying through the book of Proverbs.

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.
