You may give using the envelopes in the Pew Pad or at the Welcome Center or by going to www.hbbc.org/give and selecting which offering category you are supporting! So far, you have given $16,197. Thank you for your gift! MEMBERSHIP MATTERS Have you recently joined HBBC or are you prayerfully considering becoming a member? Do you have questions about what being a Baptist is all about? Do you desire more information about how to join the church or how to find a place of service? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you would be a perfect candidate for Membership Matters: a five week discussion group that deals with all of these issues. Susan Hailey and Betty Boyce serve as facilitators for the class. Please join us for this five week class, which has just begun! 2017 HABITAT FOR HUMANITY PROJECT: STARTS MAY 13 You can sign up now to be part of our 2017 Habitat for Humanity Build.
