Second B has hosted this service for the past 5 years as a memorial service for those soldiers who have died in service. It is a healing time of remembrance and prayer for the family members who have lost a spouse, son, daughter, friend, or parent in the line of duty. Whereas we may celebrate our patriotism on many other appropriate occasions throughout the year, Memorial Day is designated as the only day we set aside to grieve those who have died. Many vets who continue to struggle with post-combat challenges will be present to remember their fallen friends and colleagues. Please come to offer your prayerful support to our families in grief.

We Love You, Sofie!
Sofia Roa has played a major role in our ministry to children for the past 27 years, but she will be retiring at the end of this month. She first served as a teacher in our Child Development Center and then joined our nursery staff in 2001. Many of our children and grandchildren were nurtured and cared for by our dear Sofie!
We are establishing a
LOVE OFFERING for Sofie
and you may contribute to it anytime before June 15.
Thank you, Sofie, for loving our kids!

Let Your Light SHINE!
Our Mission Implementation Team has challenged us to
“BE the LIGHT”
by sharing all the
places
we serve others in our community throughout the year. We want to shine the Light of Christ into all of Lubbock in 2018!
In order to discover and share where Second B’ers are serving others in our community, we have developed a
map of Lubbock
to be placed near our south entrance on which we will mark all the locations that our members are serving to shine Christ’s light. If you want to learn more about potential places to serve, both inside and outside our church walls, please drop by this information station. The
touch screen
located there will provide you with information from our growing bank of data about ways you can become the Body of Christ in our community.
Let us know where you are serving or placing your commitment, no matter if it is once a week or once a year, at church or elsewhere, by filling out the
card
you will receive in the mail or find near the information station. Simply place your cards in the
box
located nearby.
We are called to shine our light "like stars in the universe" (Philippians 2:15). Let your light shine in 2018. Help us to “Be the Light” of Christ in Lubbock this year!
