Food items left on benches by entrance doors…

There has been an increase of food items left on the benches by the front entrance doors.

There is concern, that the food items will draw animals to that area of the building, as the items are sometimes left sitting there for quite some time.

Leadership has asked that you please not leave any food items in this location, but please rather coordinate with the recipient of those food items or contact Pastor Matt, Pastor David or Jenn Elroy, to coordinate a time that they will be in the building and those items can be brought into the building and placed where they need to go.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter!


Women of BCC- “Sip & See“- Come meet Callum Griffith at BCC- son of Kurt & Cara

If you’d like to contribute to a group gift for the Griffith family, a gift card to Amazon or monetary gift would be a blessing to them in helping them purchase a double stroller.

Mostly this time will be about having a fun celebration of the beautiful blessing of Callum. So I hope you can come join us!

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out through email, or text (please no phone calls, as picking up the phone is not my area of strength).
