Thanks to everyone who came out last Sabbath evening to help us make and serve dinner at the Ronald McDonald House!!!  I heard someone say, “this is the best meal we’ve had in such a long time!”  I think we had a total of 15 BGSC peeps show up and it was a lot of fun!  Check out our Facebook page for pictures!

Please keep the entire Kurzynske family in your prayers.....Rick & Janet lost their niece Michal day before yesterday.  She was only 37 years old.  I know they appreciate your prayers during this difficult time.  The funeral is this Friday in Georgia.  In addition, please continue to keep Victor and Patricia and family in your prayers.....Victor’s dad and Patricia’s sister are experiencing substantial health issues at this time.  Thank you for your thoughts and prayers for our church family!
