THE WEEKLY WEEK OF 7-23-2023 Church Family! We are so excited to announce that on Sunday, August 20th we will begin our NEW service times, 9:00am & 10:30am. We hope that this will create a more balanced setting between our services AND create more space for our ONE’s. Help us spread the word!
Israel Experience: Do you want to experience walking in the footsteps of Jesus? If so, sign up for the less-strenuous Israel trip bayarea.church/events, which Pastor Brian will lead in November 2023. This is an amazing experience that is truly a life investment and will give you new eyes for Biblical text.
Women’s Retreat: Ladies mark your calendar for September 22nd and 23rd. This is going to be a girl’s weekend you don’t want to miss. Bring all your friends! Everyone is invited! Erica Wiggenhorn is an award-winning author and founder of Every Life Ministries. She serves on the writing team of Proverbs 31 Ministries. You are going to love her and the message of hope she is bringing! Letting God Be Enough is the retreat theme. Who is going to join us?
The next in-person Baptism & Life in Christ Class will be on Sunday, August 6 at 11:00 am in the Equip Room. Our next scheduled baptism will be on Sunday, August 13th. You can sign up for either of these at www.bayarea.church/baptism.

Celebrate Recovery:
IS CELEBRATE RECOVERY FOR ME OR SOMEONE I KNOW? We all deal with life’s hurts and challenges by living in this broken world. Celebrate Recovery is a beautiful community of strugglers working to get honest about our pain, brokenness, and the negative ways we may see ourselves, God, and others. CR uses a biblically based and balanced approach to help bring sustainable recovery, healing, and restoration to our lives. If you would like to know more about the Celebrate Recovery community please email CR@bayarea.church.unity. CR meets every Tuesday from 6:30-9.
