Welcome Guests

If you are a first-time guest, please complete a guest card from a pew pocket or Friendship Register and drop it in the offering plate so that we may acknowledge your visit and get acquainted with you. We are glad you have joined us for worship today.

Note: “+” before a worship element indicates to stand if you are able.

Please see an usher if you’d like a listening aid.

WE LOVE CHILDREN! Your entire family is welcome here! Children’s worship bags filled with books and activities are available at the Sanctuary entrances. If you’d like an alternative for your children, childcare for birth through Pre-K is available on Level 2 at any point in the service. Our Welcome Center is also available for those with restless infants, and you can view the service on a monitor there.

ONLINE/SMARTPHONE GIVING In addition to placing your offering in the offering plate, you can give online at 2bcliberty.org/giving or via your smartphone by scanning this QR code.

Those who give electronically can participate in the offering using one of the cards in the pew rack.

Meditation

Take a few moments to prepare your heart and mind for today’s service...

Life’s most persistent and urgent question is “what are you doing for others?”
