LGs, Kingdom Calling, workday + Holy Spirit 1


Check out a lot of spring things below that are coming soon!

Life Groups, new ladies Bible study, our workday @ church—and this Sunday come be part when we announce our spring Kingdom Calling focus, called “Praying for One.”

Life Groups meet this week
With the renewal of spring (coming soon, we hope!), renew your commitment to better connect with your church family and to be encouraged and grow. See group options here or see the flyer on Sunday for current groups and contact a group leader today to get plugged in this week.

Ladies Spring Bible study – March 26
Join in the springtime study starting this Tuesday morning/March 26, 9:30-11:30am. Sign up online at brbible.org/calendar or at the table at the back of the sanctuary this Sunday. We’ll study “Exhibiting the Presence of the Holy Spirit” and explore the implications of God living in us. You are invited, welcome, and wanted!

Spring workday @ church – April 6
This is our semiannual opportunity to work shoulder-to-shoulder together AND give our church building the refreshing it needs after hard use! Please seriously consider coming out on Saturday/April 6, 8:30am-2:00pm for as much or as little time you can give. Family friendly, tasks for all ages. See more details and RSVP here.

Next baptism opportunities
If you or someone in your family would like to participate in baptism on April 21, Easter Sunday, please let Brittany know by April 1 (). For planning, July will be our next full celebration at the pool.

Lose a winter coat? 
We have many winter coats (and other things) in Lost & Found! Please make a point to check the closet at the back of the lower level hallway. Anything left unclaimed after April 1 will be donated to the thrift store.
 

The Doctrine of the Holy Spirit, Part 1
Continuing our new 11-part series walking through our BRBC statement of faith, Pastor Jack taught on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit as we considered His deity, His ministry to Jesus, and His past ministry to humanity. Stay tuned this Sunday for part 2! Listen to “The Doctrine of the Holy Spirit” and download the sermon insert.
