ALL CHURCH MISSION TRIP

 

Mission Trip
Please prayerfully consider joining us for All Church Mission Trip, June 28 - July 3, as we serve the LORD and those in need by working at the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance Center in Ferncliff, AR. We need joyful workers of all abilities who feel called to share in the love and servitude of Jesus Christ. Besides the Presbyterian Center, we will be helping with other local missions and agencies, all while growing in faith and community as we build bonds with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Please contact Blake Stephens for details.

 

1 Samuel 12: 24 - But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.

 

GRADUATING SENIORS RECOGNITION SUNDAY
On June 7, we will be hosting a recognition of the class of 2015. Join us in the Narthex before and after worship as we celebrate and commemorate BTPC's graduating seniors. We have outstanding young men and women who have excelled in high school and college and are ready to go out into the world armed with the strong foundation that you have helped provide and the knowledge that they are beloved children of the LORD.

Colossians 2:6-7 Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
