Bulletin April 26, 2015 - May Memorial Baptist Church
Welcome to
May Memorial Baptist Church!
May Memorial is a wonderful church
family that provides opportunities for
people of all ages to nurture their faith
and pursue their faith story through worship, Sunday School, children (Infants
through 5th Grade) and youth programs
(Grades 6-12), adult choir, handbells
and Bible study.
The Sunday worship schedule and
events during the week are printed in the
bulletin. If this is a first visit, restrooms
are located through the doors beside the
organ or piano (2 to the left or down the
steps to the right for second location).
Nurseries for worship are located behind
the organ side door. A water fountain is
available in the hallway behind the sanctuary and hallway in the Welcome Center.
