Welcome to Muldraugh Hill Baptist Church

• Attention Members and Visitors: The Kid’s area is undergoing a little facelift. The Sunday School classrooms were temporarily relocated on April 8th and 15th. We are hoping things will be back to normal on April 22, 2018. During this process, the new fellowship hall is being used for storage. Therefore, that area will be unavailable for use until April 24th. Keep checking back for updates as more information becomes available. Also, the new doors have been installed (right side of church at top of ramp and left side of church next to the heat/air units). Those doors are now EXIT ONLY doors or they may be entered with a church key. The only entrance doors will now be the front door and the door entering the fellowship hall under the portico. This has been done to improve the safety/security of our members, visitors and facility. • Don’t forget that it is time to sign up for Vacation Bible School (scheduled for June 10th - 15th). You can do so in the church vestibule. • Posted April 22, 2018: Once again the “Young at Heart” Sunday school class will be collecting donations to help purchase “Goats for Haiti” from now until the last Sunday in May. You can give your donation to any member of this class or through the regular offering of the church. Make sure that you designate (Goats for Haiti) on your check or offering envelope. • Today, Sunday, April 22nd, is Men's Day in our church. We will have a men and boys breakfast at 9:30 A.M. We encourage all men and boys to come eat breakfast with us. We would like to thank all of the men that have come today to teach Sunday School, lead our music, bring our messages from the pulpit and various other positions in our church. Please pray for these men as they come to lead us in our worship services today. • The next meeting of the MHBC Security “Safety” Team will be on April 24, 2018 at 6:00 p.m. Anyone interested in being a part of the team is encouraged to attend. You are not required to have a concealed carry license to be part of the team. There are many positions available for men and women. Contact Mckenzie Hardin or Kaylene Poff if interested or have questions. There are two funds available to provide monetary support for the safety of the church facility, our members, and visitors: “Video Survellience Fund” or the “MHBC Safety and Security Fund.” • On Sunday, May 6th, we will have a candidate for the Minister of Music position here leading our worship music service and bringing our special music on this day. Please pray that God’s Will be done as we seek to fill this vital ministry in our church. • Every Sunday morning at 10am, we have a special time for our kids called Mountain Movers. Sometimes it may be a devotion, a short video, or our puppet “Mountain Man” with an important lesson... it’s a fun and inspirational time for the kids before they go to Sunday School. Also, during the morning worship service we have a time called Children’s Church, where the kids come to the front of the sanctuary for a short message and when that concludes all children, ages 5 and under, are invited to our children’s area to continue children’s church. I encourage you to bring your children, they are never to young to start learning about Jesus. It’s a beautiful sight to see kids learning, having fun and growing in their faith.

Kaylene Poff is taking care of sharing our prayer concerns during the week. If you want to be included on the email list that gets the prayer concerns/updates or you want to add someone to the prayer list contact Kaylene at kaylene@pcscomputer.net or call her at (270) 849-4768.

Posted December 24, 2017: Per our hiring policy, we are announcing that the church will be looking to fill the position for our “Minister of Music”. During the first part of January, the Personnel Committee will meet to prepare the advertisements for the local newspapers and begin making plans as to how and when the position may be filled. We want to thank the Personnel Committee in advance for the work they will put into this process. Please be in prayer for them as they lead the way in filling this vital ministry in our church.

Why Have a Safety/Security Team and Proactive Safety Protocols? Safety means taking reasonable measures to make the place(s) where we meet safe and to be ready to respond to various emergencies, whether natural (such as tornado, flooding), accidental (such as fire), medical (such as heart attack, stroke, fall), or secondary to a violent act. These are several reasons to form a Safety/Security Team or to form proactive safety protocols at church. According to statistics done by the non-profit Faith Based Security Network, in 2017 alone there were 117 violent deaths—defined as homicides, suicides, and aggressors killed in action—on faith based properties in the United States.

Posted March 4, 2018: Per our hiring policy, we are announcing in the church bulletin that the church will be looking to fill the position for our Minister of Youth. During the month of March, the Personnel Committee will meet to prepare the advertisement for the local newspapers and begin making plans as to how and when the position may be filled. We want to thank the Personnel Committee in advance for the work they will put into this process. Please be in prayer for them as they lead the way in filling this vital ministry in our church. We also ask that you thank Erin for her years of service and continue to pray for her, the youth in our church and the Youth Advisory Committee as they lead the youth during this transition period.

Thank you for visiting our website. We invite you to visit our church and think you will find our church family very friendly and welcoming. We love God and want our church to be a lighthouse for the community.

We video-tape every Morning Worship Service and some of our special services. If you would like a copy of a service, please let Josh England, Sam Graham, or Ernest Carol Taylor know.
