From Pastor Jack regarding church being canceled tomorrow

February 6th, 2010 | By Jack Gill | Posted in Announcements, Blog, Calendar, From Jack, Resources | No Comments »

To all of the Saints at Blue Ridge:

Yes, we are obviously canceling church again tomorrow! Also canceled is AWANA tomorrow and as well as Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and AHG for Monday evening.

However, instead of just an e-mail, our “tech team” (Carter Farley and Tom Gossage) has made it possible for us to send you a brief message.  If you will connect to the link below, it will direct you to a short video that I hope will equip and encourage  you this Sunday.

Also, for those of you who might be struggling to come up with a lesson for Sunday morning, here is a short devotional to assist you if you need it!

Finally,  here is the link to help assist you with online giving (as mentioned in the video.)

I pray that you have a great day in the Lord, and that you can enjoy the snow!

In Him,
Pastor Jack

Weather Plan

February 6th, 2010 | By Rich Shipe | Posted in Announcements, Calendar | No Comments »

Although we remain hopeful that we will not have to cancel a second Sunday, we wanted to let you know our plan — 1) we will monitor the situation throughout Saturday; 2) our snow plowing company is going to be in contact with me and ready to do whatever they can to get the parking lot cleared; 3) we will send out notices by email and on the website, and I will be changing the church answering machine message as well.

In the event of a cancellation, please expect an additional email from Jack with some pastoral encouragement for you and your family to use as you spend the Lord’s Day at home.

Send an email to churchwide+subscribe@brbible.org to subscribe your email address to our list.

Have fun in the snow and stay safe!
