CHBC Weekly May 28, 2021
May 30 – Memorial Day Picnic at 5 PM
One of CHBC’s annual fellowship events is our Memorial Day Picnic. The church gathers for many reasons, including to enjoy the company of Christian community. Hamburgers and hotdogs will be provided, please bring yourself, a side, topping, or dessert, a lawn chair, and perhaps a game or ball.
Vacation Bible School – June 7-June 11
Each day of VBS will begin at 9 AM and end at 12 PM (Noon). Children will spend the morning learning about God, singing, doing crafts, playing games, hearing about missionaries, and eating snacks. Children attending unless the parent is a volunteer must have completed Kindergarten through 6th Grade. You can register your child here: http://chbchurch.org/event/2038966-2021-06-07-vacation-bible-school--destination-dig/
SON Sport Mission Trip – July 12-14, 5:30 PM-8:30 PM
SON Sport is a localized mission trip for the summer of 2021. CHBC wants to impact our neighbors and the nations. While reaching the nations in a personal way has been harder for the last year, that cannot diminish our reach to our own community. We are asking you to sign up yourself and your family to serve in the SON Sport Mission Trip. On this trip you will sleep in your own home, and all activities will occur at our church. We are inviting our community to bring their children to a free sports camp. We will teach basic levels of baseball, basketball, soccer, and volleyball. We will serve snacks, have devotions, and hear from some Christian professional and college athletes. You can sign up here: SON Sport
CHBC Worship for 5/30/21
The church is not a building people meet together in, but a people who gather to worship Jesus Christ as Lord.
A few changes have occurred since the OKC Covid-19 mandates have expired. Seating in the CHBC Worship Center has been adjusted slightly. We are offering one section of seating that will be every other row, and where we encourage you to leave a three-chair gap between you and others. The remainder of the Worship Center will have normal seating. We will still be offering overflow viewing of the service in the Choir Suite, where seating is distanced. A face-covering is optional throughout the building.
Sunday School
We anticipate Sunday School classes beginning to meet in normal locations after the renovations from the flood are completed. After an update from the contractors, we plan to resume classes in normal locations beginning June 20, which will be Father’s Day. Thank you for your patience as we await the completion of all repairs, so that our Preschool can return to normal.
We are still providing this Sunday School material for those who are unable to attend in person due to Covid-19: Biblical Theology Lessons and Handout, from the Core Seminars at Capitol Hill Baptist in Washington DC.

A Moment in Church History
On May 27, 1549, anabaptist, Elizabeth Dirks, was condemned to die after being tortured. They used thumbscrews, crushed her legs, and then drowned her in a bag. Learn more about church history here: Today in Church History.
Prayer
Pray that you and our brothers and sisters in Christ at CHBC would be carried by a desire for the gospel that is deeper than a love for this life.
Acts 20:24
“But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God.”
Mark D. DeMoss, Senior Pastor
