WORKDAY ON SAT, GOOD FRIDAY TIMESLOTS + SIN


This Saturday, come out to the spring workday @ church! We appreciate as much or as little time you can give, 8:30am-2pm. Inside & outside tasks for all ages. Pizza lunch at noon. Bring rakes, tarps, work gloves.

This Sunday, come to our next Membership Orientation at 9:30am in Rm 104 and learn more about BRBC and get started becoming a member.

Kingdom Calling focus: We’re Praying for One – praying for moments to speak the Gospel’s truth and show the kindness of Jesus to the ONE in front of you. Missed Roz Custard’s testimony last Sunday? Hear about how her heart was ripe to meet Jesus because of the prayers of others.

Good Friday: A Walkthrough Experience – April 19
You are invited to experience Good Friday like never before. Through a 30-minute, walkthrough experience, you will be prompted to consider what Jesus experienced and endured on your behalf through the senses of sight, smell, sound, taste, and touch. April 19, 5-10pm. Consider inviting someone unchurched to what will be an unforgettable experience! Invitation cards will be available this Sunday for you to pickup. Time slots must be reserved at brbible.org/calendar. Suitable for children ages 5 and up; separate activities are provided for kids under age 5. A special, lights-on walkthrough experience for families with children below age 5 is available between 4-5pm by signing up at the table at the back of the sanctuary on April 7 or 14.

Easter Sunday – April 21
Join us as we celebrate Jesus’ resurrection on Easter Sunday with identical 9:30am and 11:00am services. No Sunday School; childcare for ages 3 and under for the entirety of each service; ages 4-8 dismissed after worship in each service.

Kingdom Calling opportunity: Stock the Pantry 
This is an opportunity that’s part of our Kingdom Calling focus, to be a part of the restoration Jesus is already starting to bring, here and now! Our local poverty relief parachurch ministry, Tree of Life Ministries, is always in need of items to restock its pantry: Mayo, mustard, ketchup, bbq sauce, salad dressing, salt/pepper pairs, flour, cereal, chips/crackers/snacks, fruit snacks, canned potatoes, boxed potato sides, coffee, tea, hot cocoa. Drop items in the bins in the upstairs lobby.

The Doctrine of Sin
Continuing our new 11-part series walking through our BRBC statement of faith, Pastor Jack taught on the doctrine of sin. Listen to “The Doctrine of Sin” and download the sermon insert.
