ANNOUNCEMENTS
 
THANK YOU
 
All things come of Thee, O Lord and of Thine own we have given Thee. God has truly blessed us with many gifts here at Bellevue. We hope you were inspired by our Easter presentation: “We Were There, Too.”
 
We offered a different perspective on the events of Holy Week, seen through the eyes of the inanimate objects. To all our Youth participants (and Rev. Venzant), thank you so much. You are never too young to be used by God.
 
Made for Worship and Mrs. Regina Hardiman you were wonderful! Mrs. Mary Hobson, Mrs. Cari Magee, Ms. Rochelle Cowan and Deacon Garlan Garner thanks so much for the beautiful power point picture presentation. Mrs. Loretta Hudgins did her usual great job as Song Leader. Pastor Fullwood thank you for your continued support.
 
Parents and Grandparents, you know
we couldn’t do anything without you. We don’t want to overlook all of you who attended in person or viewed online. Your presence was appreciated.

Control Your Stress, Or It Will Control You!
Stress and anxiety often stem from our desire to control outcomes and circumstances. However, the Bible teaches us the importance of surrendering our will to God’s providence. In Psalm 46:10 reminds us to Be Still and know that I am God, which means that you can find peace and tranquility by being still and acknowledging the presence of God in your life. On Saturday, May 3rd at 10:00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. in the Ministry Center, we will be discussing and providing tools on how to identify and manage stress, anxiety, and depression. Our speakers for this seminar will be Gia Washington, Sertoma Centre – Adrienne Lambert, Sertoma Centre and Dianna Amacker, Trauma Healing Group. Refreshments will be served. There is a sign-up sheet outside the church office. or you can email comfortministrybbc@yahoo.com if you plan to attend.

Comfort Ministry
 
Strength from Weakness- Growing through Suffering (My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness 2 Corinthians 12:9). We have started the next phase of our comfort ministry. We will journey together to explore the healing process by growing through suffering and becoming more resilient, so we are better prepared to face suffering in the future.
 
We will explore and experience deeper levels of healing. Our goal is to help gain skills to connect with others in healthier ways so that the underlying causes of trauma are addressed to find and fulfill our purpose in life. We meet in the Fellowship Hall on Saturdays, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. There is a sign-up sheet for these sessions in outside the church office. If you have any questions, contact Andrea Jones or Sherri Chrisman. Or email Comfortministrybbc@yahoo.com
