Dear FM Family,
Every time we celebrate the Lord’s Supper we remind one another and announce to the world. ‘Christ has died.’ He died in our place for our redemption. ‘Christ has risen.’ He rose for our justification. ‘Christ will come again.’ He died as he said. Just as he rose again. One day he will return to judge the living and the dead. Therefore, ‘ what kind of people should we be?’ (2 Peter 3.11) Be engaged with worship. Pray and participate. Welcome one another in the chat ‘room.’ Share the video & encourage your friends. Please complete our Connect Card (CLICK HERE) before we begin worship.
CALL TO WORSHIP
Joel 3:14–16 (ESV)
14 Multitudes, multitudes, in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision. 15 The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining. 16 The LORD roars from Zion, and utters his voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth quake. But the LORD is a refuge to his people, a stronghold to the people of Israel.

GOD IS FOR US LYRICS | VIDEO
Verse 1
We won’t fear the battle
We won’t fear the night
We will walk the Valley with You by our side
You will go before us
You will lead the way
We have found a refuge only You can save
Chorus
Sing with joy now our God is for us
The Father’s love is a strong and mighty fortress
Raise your voice now no love is greater
Who can stand against us if our God is for us
Verse 2
Even when I stumble
Even when I fall
Even when I turn back still Your love is sure
You will not abandon
You will not forsake
You will cheer me onward with never ending grace
Bridge
Neither height nor depth can separate us
Hell and death will not defeat us
He who gave His Son to free us
Holds me in His love

Time of Prayer | Week’s Requests
Ruth 1:16–18 (ESV)
16 But Ruth said, “Do not urge me to leave you or to return from following you. For where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God. 17 Where you die I will die, and there will I be buried. May the LORD do so to me and more also if anything but death parts me from you.” 18 And when Naomi saw that she was determined to go with her, she said no more.

REMINDERS
BLOOD DRIVE
MONDAY | 1.00-7.00P / / We’re hosting a blood drive tomorrow because we love our community and want to provide life-saving help. The Blood Donation will abide by all social distancing and CDC guidelines including masks and temperature checks. Blood donation like other areas of life has experienced an unfortunate decline. We can help. Following the blood drive, the building will undergo a thorough cleaning and disinfecting before anyone enters. Pray for the safety of donors and blood drive workers.
THIS WEDNESDAY
WEDNESDAY AT 6.30P / / Small Group live will focus on the return of Christ in Romans 13, 1 Thessalonians 5, and 2 Peter 3. Find the study guide on the Soap page. Review the questions. You can submit questions through Facebook Messenger. Grab your Bible, Study Guide, and pen and join them. Paper copies are available by request and mailed on Mondays.
REGATHERING
Regathering should be intentional, incremental, and safe. I want to gather in the safest and most loving way. Impatience may lead to imprudence. As a pastor, I want our church to love our neighbors and be fore the city, and doing that well means regathering slowly and carefully. I’m assembling a group of our leaders to determine the right time and actions. When we do gather again, it’ll require grace and patience as we adapt to a few changes. Today would you complete this survey to help us as we plan? (Survey)
GIRLS’ NIGHT
MAY 19 AT 7.00P / / We may not be able to gather together in person, but we still need each other. We need to see love in each other’s eyes and hear the laughter in another’s voice. Zoom isn’t perfect, but we can come together. Gretchen, Linda, and Lisa are gathering the crew together again. Join them for fellowship, prayer, and Bible study.
BENEVOLENCE
If you are a member of FMFB and have you been financially affected by COVID-19, had a change in your employment or have experienced health issues due to the virus we may be able to help. While we can’t help everyone, we will review all requests in the order they are received. You can also give to the benevolence fund to help another family. I need help.
SAVED PEOPLE SERVE
Are you willing to help another brother or sister during the Covid Crisis? We’re looking for folks to pick up and deliver groceries, medicines, etc. I can help.
