HBBC NOW
BUSINESS MEETING
IN-PERSON | Sunday, July 21 following worship
A Regular Business Meeting will be held on Sunday morning, July 21, following the morning worship service. The purpose of the meeting will be to receive a report and recommendation concerning the Southern Baptist Convention from the Denominational Relations Committee. Because there will be no action taken during this meeting, there will be no time allotted for discussion.
BAPTISM
IN-PERSON | Sunday, July 21 during worship in the Sanctuary
One of the most beautiful moments in the life of a Christ follower is their baptism. We would love to celebrate with anyone who would like to be baptized. If you are interested, please get in touch with the church office at (919) 833-4617; one of the ministers will be happy to talk with you.
ALL-STATE YOUTH CHOIR
The All-State Youth Choir of North Carolina supports and encourages youth choir ministry for grades 9-12 in North Carolina churches by offering worship and spiritual formation through relational growth, musical development, and performance opportunities. Those selected for the All-State Youth Choir of North Carolina are invited to participate in a week-long retreat and tour each year. The hope is that students leave the week with lifelong friendships, a love for choral music and worship, and sincere spiritual discernment.

LEDFORD MISSIONS FUND
If you would like to request funding for a 2025 mission project through the Ledford Missions Endowment Fund, please submit your proposal to the Ledford Missions Fund Council by July 31, 2024. The Council will review requests in August and bring recommendations for the distribution of available funds at the congregation’s September business meeting. Application forms are available here or in the church office. Completed forms must be returned by July 31. This fund was established through a gift by the late Hubert F. Ledford, a longtime stalwart member of the congregation. To be eligible for funding, a project must conform to our congregation’s definition of missions... “the deliberate and diligent effort of the congregation, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, to extend the gospel of Jesus Christ in word and deed to as many people as possible locally and throughout the world, both Christian and non-Christian.”
