UPCOMING DATES & UPDATES
In-Person Worship Services Resume this Sunday, May 31
We are excited about our return to in-person worship services this Sunday! You will receive a separate email later in the week with specific details about Sunday morning procedures. Wheelchair accommodations will be available by reservation only. Contact linda.bohannon@tabernacle.org to schedule a wheelchair.
Darkness To Light
According to our policy, any volunteer who works with minors must complete a child abuse training by August 1. Darkness to Light is now offering online training free through the month of May. This would be the perfect time to take advantage of this great opportunity to receive the training! Click the "training link" button and use the code FLIPTHESWITCH when checking out and learn how to protect our children from sexual abuse. Once the training is complete, please email a copy of your certificate to crystal.gilley@tabernacle.org . For any questions, please contact dana.harman@tabernacle.org .
Media Team Volunteers Needed
Due to the generosity of a recent donor, our church will soon install new equipment to begin live streaming our services each Sunday. Live streaming will allow those viewing at home to participate fully on Sunday mornings. We need a few more media team volunteers to operate the new equipment associated with the live stream. If you consider yourself someone who is good with technology, please consider serving in this way. There will be a training session to make sure any who volunteer feel comfortable on the new equipment. For any questions, contact james.kimmel@tabernacle.org .
Truck to Trunk Food Distribution Event
We will be hosting an outside food distribution event on our campus on June 3. They have asked us to recruit volunteers to help distribute boxes of fresh produce to those in need during the event. Volunteers will need to arrive at 8 AM and bring their own PPE. To sign up or if you have additional questions, contact linda.bohannon@tabernacle.org.

Tabernacle PPP Loan
Tabernacle Baptist Church applied for and received a PPP loan from the federal government as part of the COVID-19 paycheck protection program. These funds will help our church cover payroll expenses through this uncertain time, but we are praying that you continue to give so that we remain financially healthy. The entire balance of the loan is reflected in our financial plan numbers now, but those funds are earmarked exclusively for church payroll expenses.
