March for Life 2012
Posted on 01/11/2012 by Rich Shipe
The annual March for Life will be on Monday January 23. I am going to lead a group down to the National Mall to do the march and everyone (not just youth) are invited. If you’ve never done this it is a great time and a fantastic opportunity to make your voice heard for unborn babies and for the sanctity of life. Why is human life valuable? Because every single person is bearing the image of the Almighty God. Because of that, even the most insignificant person by human standards has a value that is immeasurable. One of the lies that Satan tells us is that our value is based on what we do or don’t do. Continue for details and to sign-up. (more…)

God at Work Through Awana
Posted on 09/01/2011 by Media Admin

August Awana News
Posted on 07/24/2011 by Rich Shipe
Awana begins on Sunday, September 11th. This will be the start of our 15th year of Awana at Blue Ridge Bible Church. NEW TIME: 4 to 5:30 each Sunday!! There are several reasons for the time change. This will give families back their evenings together AND allow kids to get to bed early for their school week ahead. Adventure waits as delightful theme nights are planned and inspiring council time messages heard. Mark your calendar today and join us as we reach boys and girls with the Gospel of Christ!
In addition, clubbers often struggle with inviting friends and neighbors to join us at Awana. Our focus is outreach. We do want to reach our neighbors for Christ. Our goal is to lovingly open our doors and share the Good News about Christ to the lost. Because of that, we plan to do a literature drop in Purcellville neighborhoods advertising our Awana program with doorknob hangers. For the Awana clubbers in uniform who join us to help, this will count as one visitor requirement in their book. The outreach event is planned for Labor Day, Monday, September 5th. Watch the bulletin for further details.
Leadership training will take place the end of August! Be praying how God can use you in this dynamic ministry. Positions fill up fast so contact us today!

Adoption for the glory of God
Posted on 03/15/2011 by Rich Shipe
Adoption is such an incredible picture of the gospel. It is hard to come up with an aspect of adoption that is not an illustration of what our heavenly father has done for us. But in each regard the magnitude is so much greater with the gospel. If you are a child of God, watch this Third Day video and think about what God has done for you.
Also consider how you might get involved with the church’s orphans and adoption ministry, Reflection Ministries.
Children’s Choir Performance: Acorns to Oaks
Posted on 03/04/2011 by Rich Shipe
The Blue Ridge Children’s Choir will be performing Celeste Clydesale’s Acorns to Oaks as our spring musical, tentatively scheduled for Friday, June 10, 2011. This fun-to-sing musical teaches children about growing in Christ from acorns to mighty oaks of righteousness. (Isaiah 61:3 – “So they will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.”)
As the children help Mr. MacDonald with his harvest, he teaches them the parable of the seed and the sower. When they’re visited by some mischievous crows and rumor weeds, they begin to understand that the best way to produce the fruit God desires in their lives is to plant their roots firmly in God’s Word.
All children ages 7 to 13 (as of January 1, 2011) are welcome to join the choir for this production. The musical contains 10 songs which the entire choir will be performing together with no auditions necessary. There will be auditions for speaking roles and solos, tentatively scheduled for March 30 and April 3. Every child in choir is welcome to audition.
