South Bay is presenting a Family Day, Sabbath, September 20. Family days focus on strengthening church family life.
There will be five seminars on that Sabbath afternoon and here is one of them:
Dr. Sean Walters - Ignite Your Family's Passion for Birding! With Professor Sean Walters as your expert guide, you'll learn about common and not so common birds that visit the Chattanooga area, how to recognize bird calls and songs, learn how to navigate free birding apps, and view must-have birding books. You will learn how to get your children excited about this enjoyable and inexpensive nature hobby.
The deaconesses team is now providing blankets to ladies who are cold in Sabbath school or divine service. You can request a blanket from the greeters at the welcome center in the foyer. Please return after the service.
Have an Announcement: Please send all announcements and bulletin items to info@southbaysda.org. Note that we currently are without a church secretary until October.

Prayer Ministry: In an effort to bathe our church in prayer in 2025, prayer ministries is coordinating an effort by which we are asking every member to be involved in praying for every church member two days out of the year.
