The Red Rose on the communion table is in glad announcement of the birth of Andrew Bennett Fulford Jr., son born to Andy and Stephanie Fulford on February 23, 2009. The happy grandparents are Carlton and Mary Ann Fulford.
There will be no youth activities here tonight due to the special choral concert by the Chowan Singers from Chowan University. Next Sunday, March 22nd, a special guest will join us for Bible Study.
Showing in Faith Quest Now - CSI: Jerusalem! All children K-5th grade come check out "CSI: Jerusalem" in Faith Quest. Through fun, hands-on forensics science activities, come explore the events surrounding Jesus' death and resurrection. Investigate the lives of those who knew Him well and their reactions to the events. As you learn about Peter, Mary Magdalene, John and Judas' actions and reactions, you will be challenged to not only believe in Jesus but to allow Him to transform your life through His forgiveness and His love! We look forward to seeing all our Faith Quest "Investigators" and "Forensic Scientists" at "CSI: Jerusalem!"
This evening at 7 o'clock our church will host the Chowan Singers from Chowan University (North Carolina), who will be presenting a concert. Following the concert there will be an ice cream fellowship. Invite your friends and neighbors to this free concert.

Ralph will be providing musical entertainment for us after the meal. Please sign up on the sheet located on the senior adult bulletin board so we know how many to prepare for.

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.
The following persons have been called to serve as leaders and enablers by the congregation.
