Welcome to the Mt. Airy Family! Announcements

Welcome to the Mt. Airy Family!
We are thrilled to have you as our guest today! If you are
looking for "a family of friends" you'll find them at Mt.
Airy. I would like to personally invite you to two important things that our church offers. First, we offer small
group Bible studies for all ages. Our BSF, or Bible Study
Fellowship classes, meet every Sunday at 8:30am and
9:45am. We would love to have you join us next Sunday.
Second, I would like to meet you at the end of the service.
Please stop by and say “hello.” Thank you for investing
your time with us today. I hope to see you again next
week! Your Friend and Pastor,
