Thank you for visiting our website. We are a Seventh-day Adventist Church that seeks to connect people with God, with each other, and with the community. We believe that Jesus is coming again soon, and we look forward to that time. We worship Jesus on Saturdays, a day we call Sabbath.
    Join us for worship some Saturday morning, either by visiting us in person at 4200 Ammendale Road in Beltsville, Maryland, or by watching the service online here at our website. We have services at 9:30 am and 12:00 noon. In addition, we have Study Group Classes for both adults and children at 10:45 am.

A.I. John died this past Sunday.  There will be a viewing Saturday evening from 6 to 9pm at Hines-Rinaldi Funeral Home on New Hampshire Avenue.  The funeral service will be Sunday morning at 10:30 at Spencerville Church.  Please remember Susie John and the entire family in your prayers.
 
When A.I. John died, it wasn’t front-page news in the Washington Post, but it was the biggest news of the week to his family.  I remember Pastor John – he had been a pastor in his native India, and he never stopped ministering to people.  He asked me how he could help with pastoral tasks around Beltsville Church.  What a gracious man.  One of the positive things that can accompany death is remembering the good and kind and loving deeds of the deceased.  It brings us comfort.  It reminds us that our lives one day will be remembered.  It helps us know that God’s work is being done on this earth.  Thank you, Pastor John, for blessing my life.

BRING YOUR SOUL …
To worship this week.  Pastor Donna is speaking on “Love Is…”  (And, just as a teaser for next week:  Pastor Glenn is speaking on “Love Isn’t …”  I’ve got to hear these companion messages.)  We’ll have a children’s story by the puppets.  We’ll hear more about the community ministry – and have another opportunity to help us as we raise $33,775 during May and June.  (You can make a donation anytime at the website at http://hopeforhumanity.fundly.com/beltsville-community-housing-project.  UYou also can learn more about our needs and our plans.  Go visit the site anytime.)
 
BRING YOUR FOOD …
To worship this week as well.  Our offering collection will be more than just money this week.  Our offering during worship will include bags of food we are bringing to help our community center’s Food Bank.  We need a special boost of food right now, in ways we may never need it again.  Please bring a bag – or several bags – of food.  We’ll bring the food forward during the offering call. 
 
BRING SOME MORE FOOD …
To the Fellowship Dinner this week.  We always have guests who stay for dinner, and we depend on members bringing food so that we have food enough to feed us – and those who visit our church.  Sometimes the ratio of food to eaters is pretty slim.  If you are a member, please bring food anytime you plan to stay for Fellowship Dinner.  (If you don’t have time to cook, bring drink or prepared dessert or even just a bag or two of chips.  Or maybe a relish tray or a bag of apples.  Be healthy!)
 
BRING YOUR TOOLS …
To the Work Bee on Sunday from 8am to 4pm.  Chain saw.  Rake.  Shovel.  Don’t have any of those?  Bring a pair of hands, and we’ll put them in a pair of work gloves.  Can’t come for all 8 hours?  Join Charlie Ball and his crew for as much time as you can.  Help our church look great for summer.
 
MARRIAGE SEMINAR POSTPONED
“Celebrate Your Marriage,” which was originally scheduled to begin this evening, has been postponed until a future date. More details later.
