We are hosting a screening of Over 18, on Friday, May 10 at 7:00 p.m. Over 18 is a documentary about pornography and its addictive effects on children and youth. Our hope in hosting this screening is to open up the conversation around pornography addiction in our community and families. We also want to equip people with tools and resources to both protect their kids from harmful sexual content online as well as help those struggling with pornography addiction themselves.

The next Ladies Social will be on Tuesday, May 14 at 7:00 p.m. Cindy King, a manager at Paramed Services will be sharing about what services are available through Paramed. Plan to come out for this informative evening.

GOING GREEN

We are making small changes to help HMC be a little bit greener. We have purchased new dishes in an effort to reduce our constant use of paper and styrofoam. Join the team and help make this an easy transition! We need volunteers to help with the dishes during our Building Connection Sundays and other church family food events. Please consider signing up to help! See the podium in the foyer and let us know what month you’re available. Events occur approximately once a month.
