Details to be announced.

Monday, July 19–Thursday, July 22

9:30 AM–11:30 AM

All children from Kindergarten through 6th Grade are welcome for four fun mornings of Bible teaching through activities, games, and all-round fun! Hanover Baptist is hosting Vacation Bible School in the format of “backyard Bible clubs” at the homes of two church families, one in King George and one in Colonial beach. Weather permitting, children will enjoy their activities in the fresh air and sunshine. Of course provisions have been made if the weather is uncooperative.

We are partnering with a missionary team from Calvary Baptist Church in Union City Tennessee. No one is friendlier than a group of Tennesseans! Your child or grandchild is certain to have a good time and come away with new understanding of Jesus Christ.

Please come. Tell your friends. It’s free!

King George

Home of the Weberg family at 8011 Fulmont Drive

Colonial Beach

Home of the Foster family at 81 Monticello Drive

Please contact the church if you have any questions.

7 PM
We will be finalizing arrangements for Vacation Bible School and the mission team.

This was our second Back to Basics event. Brandon Foster, a member who works at the Charles County Sheriff Department, taught a valuable class in self-defense techniques. He started with a time of devotion and then delivered a riveting presentation. Techniques were demonstrated with Brandon’s son LaShaad Hopewell, so no JEWEL was injured in the making of this event.

LaShaad (after a brief recovery) also demonstrated the survival technique of drying meat—complete with delicious samples.

This year’s Tea—our 10th—was treasured by all who attended. We had a very special program this year. Our guest speaker, Lydia Vinson spoke on the fruit of the spirit as embodied in Galatians 5:22–23.

Lydia is the Worship Leader and Ladies Ministry director at Faith Christian Fellowship in Fredericksburg, where her husband Tony is pastor.

“My heart for Women’s Ministry is to see each woman come to a deep, intimate relationship with our Savior. For her to see her worth and value in God’s eyes…to see her calling in her home, her work and in the body of Christ. In our time together, I am excited to see how God is going work in and through us to bind our hearts closer to Him and to one another.”

One of our own young ladies, Kirsten Lowe, performed two worship songs in sign language. Kirsten is a home school senior, graduating in May. Since the age of nine, after watching “The Miracle Worker,” she has been interested and intrigued with sign language.

“One way to reach the deaf is through music. Even though they cannot hear the words as we do, they can experience the joy of worship. Although I am not deaf, I have come to realize that putting sign language to a song takes me to a new and magnificent level of worshipping my Savior. My hope is that God will use the words and signs of these songs to draw you closer to Him.”

And as always, the Hanover ladies put together a fabulous feast of fellowship, fun, and favorite foods. (Frances Ensminger’s superlative asparagus casserole recipe will be posted here as soon as possible!)
