LIFE LINE SCREENING
Life Line Screening will be here at Bentwood Trail Presbyterian Church on 
Monday, June 27, 2016 offering safe, painless, non-invasive preventive health screenings that are typically not a part of a routine physical.  To be more proactive about your health and to live longer for yourself, your family and your community, please register for these potentially life-saving tests today.  Please refer to the attached flyer to get more info about how you can sign up while receiving $10 off any package priced above $139.  For only $139 (regularly $149) you can learn your risk of having stroke or vascular disease.

There is no time like the present to take action!  Learn more by watching this short video: http://www.lifelinescreeningblog.com/introduction/

STEWARDSHIP COMMUNION SUNDAY
"AGAPE"
Please see this Sunday's bulletin insert for more information about Agape Resource & Assistance Center, an organization in Plano assisting single women & their children. We will support Agape by donating items listed on the insert, to be collected July 3 - 10.
RECEPTION 
No matter how you say it - Adiós, Aloha, Arrivederci, Au Revoir, Auf Wiedersehen, Αντίο, Cheerio, Ciao, Do Widzenia, Kwaheri, Sayōnara, Tchau, or Zàijiàn - we don't want to say, Good-bye to Angela.
 
However, we do want to say, Thank you - Asante, Danke, Dzięki, Efcharistó, Gracias, Grazie, Kansha, Mahalo, Merci, Much Obliged, Obrigado, and Xièxiè - in many ways!

Please join us in Prichard Hall for a reception and light lunch, on
Sunday, July 10, immediately following worship, to honor Angela Bakowski upon her retirement as BTPC's office administrator. We wish Angela all the best in her retirement and move back to her homeland in Warsaw, Poland to be near her family.
CHAIR YOGA
  
Each Thursday
10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
A certified yoga instructor leads a "chair yoga" class, consisting of exercises for stretching and flexibility done while seated or standing next to a chair as individual ability allows. Join us and bring a friend!
CREATIVE ARTS CORNER
  
Each Friday
10:00 a.m. - noon
Want to try a new hobby - knitting, crocheting,
jewelry making or maybe painting? 
Join a group of hobbyists in Prichard Hall
 for a creative time and fellowship!
ONLINE GIVING
 
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.
