Church Family,

The COVID-19 situation continues to change rapidly, and as a result, so do our plans for upcoming worship gatherings and church ministries.  After much discussion and prayer, we have decided to suspend onsite worship gatherings and church ministries until further notice.

Instead, we will be posting this Sunday's service on our website and sharing through email so that you can participate from home. The service will go on the website (www.meadowbrookbaptist.org) no later than 10:00 am Sunday morning.

This adjustment includes suspending Sunday worship gatherings, Sunday School, Bible studies, Wednesday suppers, and our youth Disciple Now Weekend. Our Kids of the Kingdom weekday program will continue to align with the plans of the Shelby County Schools system.

Of course, the spread of the Coronavirus does not stop the mission of the church! May this be a time of family worship gatherings, sharing and showing the love of Christ, renewed trust in Jesus, and continued giving for Christ's glory. Remember that this may be a convenient time to begin utilizing our online giving option, or you mail your tithes and offerings to 4984 Meadow Brook Road, Birmingham, AL 35242.

As of now, the church offices and staff will continue with normal operating hours, and we will update you regarding Meadow Brook gatherings and activities through email and Facebook.

As we look ahead, let's continue trusting our faithful Lord and being the church Christ has called us to be. Let me encourage you in 3 ways:

  • Let's pray. God is on His throne. He hears our prayers. Pray for comfort, healing, and His gospel to go forth.
  • Let's love. Jesus said His people would be known by their love. Let's use our phones and call and care for each other. If you become sick, fearful, or need help, please let your deacon, Sunday School group, or a staff member know. Feel free to contact the church office at (205) 991-8384, and please don't hesitate to email me if there is any way I can be praying for or serving you.
  • Let's share the good news of Jesus. As one pastor put it, Christians "are a good news people in a bad news world." Put your hope in God and be prepared to share "the reason for the hope that you have" (1 Pet. 3:15).
 
Grace and peace be yours,
 
Pastor Chris
