ANNOUNCEMENTS: SUNDAY, MAY 24

  • Sermon Details: Jesus and the Danger of Spiritual Blindness (Mark 8:1-21) by Pastor Richard Agnew. You can view the sermon points and take notes using the YouVersion Bible App.
  • Ghana Short-Term Mission Trip Fundraiser - The Ghana short-term missions team is hosting a fundraiser today (May 24) and next week (May 31). They are selling mugs and baked goods at the Missions Kiosk (downstairs in The Hub) and the Missions Cafe (upstairs). You can stop by to support the team, after both of our morning services. If you'd like to make a donation to their trip, you can select the fund "Short Term Mission Trip".
  • The Big Give: This year The Met will be participating in The Big Give. Our event will take place at the Banff-Ledbury community where we will be doing a garden giveaway. We will be handing out seeds, plants, freshly made salsa, and bibles. We will also have an 'ask the garden expert' tent and prayer tent available for residents to ask questions and spend time in prayer with our volunteers. Seed and plant donations can be dropped off at The Met from Sunday, May 31 until Friday, June 5.
  • Churchwide Food & Fellowship and Churchwide Prayer: We hope you can join us on Sunday, May 31 in the evening. At 5pm we will gather in the Gym for a free meal and some fellowship, then move to the Chapel at 6pm for prayer.
  • We're hiring: We are looking to hire a Pastor of Discipleship and Congregational Care who will provide mature, experienced pastoral leadership in shepherding, care, and discipleship across the life of the church (see job description here).
  • The Facilities team is looking to better understand the skills, experience, and knowledge the Lord has gifted to our church family, so we can care for our property well together. To this end, we’re asking all those with any interest in our church facility and grounds to complete our Facility & Grounds Skills Survey (paper copies also available at the front desk).
  • Volunteers needed:
    • Our Sunday morning Worship Team is looking for more musicians to volunteer with them. Drums and vocals are our biggest areas of need right now, but bass, acoustic and electric guitars, and piano and keys are welcome as well. Please fill out a Serve Card and select "Sunday Worship Services".
    • If you love playing with and teaching children and have a heart for camp ministry, there are opportunities to serve at our MetKids Camps (VBC, Summer Camp, and Metrohoops Basketball Camp). We are currently in need of 60 adult volunteers to serve during the camp weeks, but if you're not available for that, you may also help with decor and craft prep or consider snack or supply donations. Learn more about the different camps on our website and how you can serve. On Sunday, May 24, there are tables set up in the foyer for you to learn more.

PRAY FOR MISSIONS

  • Missionary of the Week: Samir serves as the Executive Director of Lumens of Truth, leading a team of Afghans committed to bringing the gospel to the unreached peoples of Afghanistan. Through online evangelism, discipleship, theological resources, and video courses, their ministry reaches tens of thousands of Afghans and equips the underground Afghan church. Their videos are now being watched tens of thousands of times from within Afghanistan.
    • Pray that hearts would be open, that the Word would reach where we cannot go, and that God will continue to prepare people to hear, question, and respond.
  • Monthly Missions Prayer Focus: Once a month we will show a video highlighting a nation that will be our prayer focus for the coming month. You can visit the missions kiosk to pick up a copy of the 2026 Missions Prayer Guide about unreached people groups with some prayer points. For the month of May, please be praying for India.
    India is home to over 1.4 billion people and thousands of distinct groups, yet more than 95% remain unreached, having little or no access to the gospel. While Christianity is growing, believers in many regions face opposition, discrimination, and pressure for their faith.
    Pray for...
    • Christians to boldly live out God’s love across caste, religious, and regional barriers.
    • Open doors for gospel resources to reach India’s one billion unreached people.
    • Protection, courage, and perseverance for believers facing rising persecution.
