THE WEEKLY WEEK OF 6-25-2023

Church offices will be closed on July 4th in observance of the holiday. 

Celebrate Recovery is Coming to Bay Area Church: 

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. 

Women’s Ministry: Ladies, we would love to have you join us on Friday, July 14th from 5:45 to 8 pm for a Free Virtual simulcast called HEARTS OF FIRE. Bay Area women’s ministry is hosting this event sponsored by the Voice of Martyrs. Four women will be sharing their courageous testimonies of courage and faith. Michael W. Smith is leading the worship. Please register @ Bayarea.church/events if you plan to attend. Snacks and drinks will be provided. 

Save the date! 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! Registration opens July 1st! 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? 

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. 

The next in-person Baptism & Life in Christ Class will be on Sunday, July 2nd at 11:00 am in the Equip Room. Our next scheduled baptism will be on Sunday, July 9th. You can sign up for either of these at www.bayarea.church/baptism.
