Bridge Church Update
Dear Bridge Family and Friends,
If you are feeling overworked, overwhelmed and just too busy, I hope you will join us Sunday as we talk about Jesus Eats with the Mary and Martha! Jesus uses this meal to talk about the one thing that really matters. It’s the one thing that I believe we all need to hear. I look forward to seeing you this Sunday.
Also, we have our Annual Celebration and Business Meeting this Sunday January 28th at 5pm in the Kids Kingdom area. We will share a potluck meal and look back at 2023 and take a look forward at 2024 as well as vote on the budget and board of trustees. Come celebrate with us January 28th at 5pm in Kids Kingdom. Potluck assignments are as follows: last name starts with A-E = Salad/Appetizer, F-M = Main Dish, N-S = Side Dish, T-Z = Dessert. To view the proposed 2024 board members we will be voting on you can visit this link https://thebridgereno.com/2024board
Blessings to you,
Pastor Bill
Kids Kingdom Needs Volunteers : We are looking for 4 volunteers to help out in our children's ministry. This will create a larger rotation so that all volunteers will have a change to attend worship service. We need 2 Pre-K – First Grade teachers and 1 Second – Third Grade Teacher. You would be asked to arrive 15 mins. early to set up and help with snacks. Then escort the children to their classroom and teach a scripted lesson. We also host a “Shilling Store” each month that all teachers help with. The other volunteer would be a dedicated helper with the monthly “Shilling Store.” A free background check is required. Please consider serving with this critical ministry in our church and help children come to Jesus and grow in his grace.
Worship Team Needs Volunteers: Do you have the desire to minister to God's people through singing and music? Our desire is to build a team of singers and musicians who love to worship. We also have openings for sound board operators, lighting techs, and camera operators. We are willing to train the in tech areas too. If these opportunities sound exciting to you please contact Elizabeth Kirk at eakirk@outlook.com
