The church office will be closed tomorrow in observance of Presidents' Day.
On this Wednesday, February 18, our children's choirs will resume rehearsals. The Music Makers (age 4 through 1st grade) and Young Musicians (2nd through 5th grade) will meet from 6:30 to 7:15.
Our Adult Choir has begun rehearsing our Easter musical, entitled "How Can It Be?" If you are interested in singing, you are invited to come and participate, whether or not you are currently a choir member. Rehearsal time is Wednesday from 7:15 to 7:45 p.m.
Copies of the Treasurer's Report for January are available on a table in the narthex.
Help! Help! We are in desperate need once again for help in our nursery, two and three year olds and four and five year olds extended session time during the worship service. Lead teachers as well as assistants are needed. The only qualification needed is your love for children. The children enjoy this experience more than an adult worship service (if you get my meaning)! If you would be willing to help with this important ministry, please contact Amy Henry, 410-257-5298, or email her at

OUR MISSION
We believe Heritage Baptist Church exists to be a beacon reflecting God's unconditional love in Annapolis and surrounding communities. Using the Bible as our guide, our purpose is to share the Gospel message so that others may become followers of Jesus Christ and to provide an environment that facilitates the strengthening of believers. Each member, like every disciple of Christ, is commissioned to be faithful in the worship of God, Christian ministry, and fellowship with believers. We will continually look to God for power and direction to chart our course.
