Pastors, Church Administrators and Secretaries, Bulletin Editors:
These weekly announcements are meant to be a helpful resource, especially for those of you who put your congregations' bulletins together on a weekly basis. If there are ways we could present this information more effectively please don't hesitate to pass on your ideas or give feedback.
Some churches forward the following information and community life announcements to their members using email while others post various events in their weekly bulletin, on their church website, or Facebook page. This and past columns are available on the ACC webpage at atlanticcoastconference.net/ba.
Please let us know if there are additional ways we can assist you as we serve together.

Free webinar by MMN:
Adapting to the pandemic and innovation for the future
|
|
Our previous plans may have been interrupted, but God’s plans have not. The Great Commission (Matthew 28) and the Great Commandment (Matthew 22) remain a central mandate for the church. Mission Network exists to equip, empower, and partner with the church in this shared calling. The challenge we all face together is how to be the gospel and bring the peace to church, culture, and community during accelerated change.
In this webinar, you will hear how Mission Network is swiftly adapting to current circumstances, updates on our current work, and our innovative vision to prepare for an unfolding future.
