Dads, we would love to bless you for Father’s Day by providing a lunch for you! So stick around after church next Sunday, June 16th, and enjoy a catered meal from Mission Bbq.
Ladies, you are invited to an upcoming Bible study. This study will meet every other Monday evening from 6-8pm beginning August 5th in the home of Tonia Hatfield. The study is God of Deliverance: A Study of Exodus 1-18 by Jen Wilkin. Reach out to Tonia at Hatfield912@gmail.com if you would like to join or have any questions.
The Propel ministry will be breaking from gathering at the church on Wednesday evenings for a few weeks. However, there are lots of fun events planned for the summer! Middle & HS students, invite your friends and come out to one of these events.
Women of Forward, mark your calendars for our upcoming Progressive Dinner on Saturday, June 29th. What is a progressive dinner you ask?
- a social occasion at which the different courses of a meal are eaten at different people’s houses.
We will begin at Forward Church at 4:30pm with appetizers. From there, we will carpool in groups to different ladies’ homes that will be participating. If you would like to attend, please sign up this weekend at the Welcome Desk.
For any questions, contact Lisa Sutherland at lisa@forwardchurchfamily.com.
Forward Church Family, we have 3 more Sundays to bring in supplies for “Pack the Bus”. This is a collaboration with local churches, businesses, and individuals to provide basic school supplies to those New Albany-Floyd County School students who cannot afford them.
This year, our Forward church family will be joining in this initiative to help provide supplies for more than 2,000 students. We will be collecting the following items below. We have provided a bin in the coffee area for your donations. The deadline for bringing in supplies is Sunday, June 23rd.
Thank you in advance for being a blessing to those in our community!

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.
