MVBC Family Happenings

This Sunday, we will pause for a few moments to recognize Sanctity of Life Sunday. Please continue to read the information contained in this communique. There is a link to Real Options where you can financially help those who are fighting for the lives of unborn children. You can also participate in the Baby Bottle Drive in which we have participated over the last several years.

In preparation for our worship this Sunday, please continue to study 1 Corinthians 11:2-16. This has been a particularly difficult passage to explain, but I am confident God will bless the struggle.

Sanctity of Life Sunday is this Sunday, January 17. Churches use this day to celebrate God's gift of life, commemorate the many lives lost to abortion, and support programs protecting human life before AND after birth. Real Options (formerly Care Net) is having its Baby Bottle Drive again this year. Real Options offer its services to families by providing ultrasounds, counseling, parenting classes, supplies, and other resources. Baby bottles will be available for pickup in the Multipurpose Room on Sunday. You can take your bottle home and fill it with your donation and return it by February 14. You may also visit their website and donate online this year (if you write Merrimack Valley Baptist Church in the church field, your donation will count towards our baby bottle drive total).

Join us for one of our two Sunday morning in-person services at 8:45 a.m. or 10:30 a.m. or watch online at 10:30 a.m. here. Please note: Children's Church will not be available this Sunday, January 17. On Wednesdays, join us for our in-person Wednesday Bible Study at 6:45 p.m. in the Chapel. Seating is limited for each of these in-person services, so be sure to sign up at www.mvbc.org/sign-up! The 10:30 a.m. Sunday service, Children's Ministries videos, Adult Bible Study on Wednesdays, and Teen Life, will still be available online for those worshiping from home as well.

Life Groups have resumed for our winter session! We have Life Groups which meet in person and virtually. If you have any questions about Life Groups you may contact Pastor Joe Bouchoc. You may join a group by clicking here.

There's still time to join in on one of our Ladies' Bible Study groups this winter session. The Monday evening group began this past Monday and is studying Song of Solomon. This group meets every other week at the Annex. The Tuesday morning groups are studying through Acts and begin this Tuesday, January 19. There are both in person and Zoom options as well! We'll also have a Monday evening group going through the study of Acts beginning on March 8. Click here to sign up or contact Christina Stark for more information.

The 2021 giving envelopes will be available for pickup in the MPR on Sunday or you can call the Church Office to come pick up yours during office hours.

You can still worship through giving from home. You may either mail checks to P.O. Box 606, Nashua, NH, 03061 or donate online here. To view giving information for last week, click here.

Seeking to serve, Greg Odiorne
