Family Meeting + International Mission Cuisine
We hope you will join us for a Family Meeting on Sunday, May 3rd at 5pm. Membership and other church updates will be given during this meeting. Afterwards, we will fellowship together with an International Mission Cuisine dinner. See you there!

Cookie donations needed for VBS
    We need lots of cookies for the snacks for the children each day. Please do not bring
    anything with peanut butter or nuts. We need varieties of large packages of cookies
    that we can distribute out each day. We will have drop boxes for the cookies in the
    HUB, foyer, and by the elevator! Thank you for your help in this!

VBS Pre-Registration
We hope you are making plans to send your children to VBS this year! VBS will be held June 1st-4th 8:30-noon! It's a fun-filled week so they won't want to miss it! Pre-registration is not mandatory, but highly encouraged as it makes the morning run much more smoothly and helps us be more prepared. The online links for pre-registration will close Friday, May 29th. After that, you will need to come inside and register your child in person on the morning of VBS. Paper forms are also available upon request.

VBS Volunteer Training Dinner
VBS Volunteer Training for youth & adults will be Sunday, May 17th from 5-6:30pm in
the gym. Dinner will be provided & we will go over important information & policies. Childcare will be available for children 5 & under (please RSVP with Katie for childcare). If you still haven’t signed up to volunteer, please sign up on the website and plan to attend.

VBS Volunteer Sign Up
    VBS will take place Mon. June 1st- Thurs. June 4th and we need YOU! If you are able
    to serve any day, in any way, we could use your help! Volunteers are those who will
    have completed 6th grade up to adults of all ages.  We are praying that God will lead
    His people with the desire to serve His church through this event. VBS runs from
    8:30-noon each day and there are lots of places to serve so please sign up as soon as

Serve Jesus alongside your family this Fall Break! Oct 9-11, 2026, HBC will travel to Renovate Church in Cleveland, MS, to help our mission partners run a block party. Anyone 2nd grade and up can come on the trip. The cost is $45 per person or $100 per family, whichever is less. Want to hear more? An interest meeting will be held in room C120 on Sunday, June 7 immediately following the second service.

New Men’s Life Group Class
Men! if you’re not already in a Life Group, here’s a new Bible study and spiritual growth connection for you.  We have a new Men’s Life Group beginning on Sunday, May 3rd at 11am in room C126. Contact Whit Perry at [email protected] or Ron Leonard at 662.429.6361 or [email protected] if you have any questions.

Ways to Give
We no longer pass offering plates; instead, we have stationed offering collection boxes in the foyer. As you leave the worship center, we encourage you to drop your offering in one of these boxes. If you desire, you may continue to give online through our Hernando Baptist Church app or through our website at hernandobaptist.org/give.
