Waterfront Beautification Dedication
|
Sunday, August 12, 6 PM
by Henrietta Huff
This Sunday we will dedicate our new sanctuary gardens, new stone steps adjacent to the gardens (in memory of Gen. Bob Plowden), the waterfront memorial wall, and historic stone bench. Please join us at the seawall this Sunday as we dedicate all of this to the glory of God and His kingdom here at Belin Memorial!
I offer my profound gratitude to all who have been instrumental in seeing these projects to their fruition, most particularly the Belin Gardeners for all their hard work and patience.

Tuesday, August 14
8 AM - 1 PM
Family Life Center
Donate blood at the upcoming blood drive and receive a $5 Amazon gift card (by email). Sign up online at
redcrossblood.org. Walk-ins are welcome but those with appointments will be given priority.
There is currently an emergency blood shortage, and donors are needed now. An estimated 38 percent of Americans are eligible to give blood, but of those, less than 10 percent actually donate each year. So, book your appointment, roll up your sleeve, and become part of the lifesaving mission of the American Red Cross!

Sometimes God's plan for us is not always what we expect.
It is important to be prepared for anything and everything life throws at you. To help you in this preparation and to provide you with the knowledge you will need, Belin Memorial's Endowment Team will be hosting several events in September in which certified professionals will be providing information and answering questions related to end of life planning.
At this time, volunteers are needed to answer questions at these events. The Endowment Team is looking for certified expertise in the following areas:
- Estate Planning Attorneys
- Life and Long-term Care Insurance Experts
- Funeral Home Directors
- Financial/Retirement Planners
- Social Security and Medicare Experts
Please contact Woody DuRant if you would be interested in volunteering for these events,
