At BPC we are committed to serving IN (the church) and serving OUT (the community) You can sign up to serve by clicking the button below!

Serve OUT (serving the community)

A major part of our vision to LOVE ALL, SERVE ALL is to have regular opportunities for you to put “boots on the ground” and serve in hands-on mission. We are challenging you to participate in at least two of these projects each year. We pray you’ll take on the challenge starting this month with our two current projects.

Serve IN (serving the Church)

We need our members and friends to Serve IN our congregation on Sunday mornings, and we ask that everyone take a turn helping out at least a couple of times a year. There are a lot of areas you can help out! Check out the online signup form by clicking the link below and pick your date!

When we have a first-time guest we are giving them the opportunity to choose a charity that we will make a gift to in their honor as a thank you for worshipping with us after the service. They can do this electronically, but if they choose to do it in person we are asking them to come to the welcome table to tell us which they pick. This is another opportunity to be a friendly presence!
- The five charities are:
  - Hope at the Brick House
  - Presbyterian Disaster Assistance
  - Churches United
  - Charity:Water
  - King’s Harvest
