Important Mission Trip Update
Deadline to register, May 19th

The date for our summer mission to Eastern NC has changed, again. I received a call from our mission site and a scheduling error was missed when we requested our week. Therefore, we have chosen to move our week up to Sunday, June 20 - Friday, June 25. I know that year-round student's last day of school is Monday, the 21st. If you are in year round, we will provide transportation for you to join the mission after school on Monday. The cost of the mission is only $50. Chaperones are needed for this mission. Parents, come join your teens on this mission! To register, click the link below.

A Conversation on Corporate Worship
Sunday, May 23 from 4:00 - 6:00 pm
NHBC Sanctuary

The NHBC staff will share a simple presentation followed by open conversation. This gathering is not a conference. There will be no motions, no votes, and no decisions. It will be a conversation leading to next steps in a discernment process for the church.

We encourage everyone to attend so every voice can be shared - from younger to older, from long-tenured members to the newest among us.

Please take time in prayer beginning now through 5/23 when we gather. Pray specifically for the leadership of the Holy Spirit for the church.
