ONLINE GIVING IS HERE
 
Online Giving is designed for those who wish to give an offering to BTPC without the hassle of writing a check each time you give.  It also works for those who want to give but are either out of town or cannot attend worship.  It is available for pledged or non-pledged giving.

The Communications Ministry Team plans to include the replies as "Quotes from BTPC Members" in publications such as Visitor Welcome Brochure, New Member Information, Stewardship Communications, BTPC Website, etc.
  1. What favorite activity have you done at or through BTPC?
  2. In whom have you seen God at work and why?
  3. What encounter with God has been the most surprising for you?

Please email your responses to communications@bentwoodtrail.org or give them to Lissa Dallas or Cindy Turner.
