Israel Experience 2020: Registration is available for the May 30-June 10, 2020 Israel Experience. In 2006 Brian experienced the land of Israel and studied the biblical text in context for the very first time. It opened his eyes and changed him forever. He knew then he had to lead others to experience Israel with the Bible as their guide. Since then, he has led hundreds to walk the ancient paths of the Scripture and to discover the root of their faith in Christ. It is the experience of a lifetime and worth the investment. Please consider this amazing discipleship adventure. You can register at https://legacymilestones.com/event/2020-israel-study-tour/.

MISSIONS
BLESSING THE BAY AREA 2019: For the first time, the event will be on a SATURDAY rather than a Sunday. The event date is Saturday, November 9. We believe this will allow for greater participation and not impose restrictions on the time frame needed to complete a project. Each LifeGroup has identified their project and are making preparations. If you are not a member of a LifeGroup, you will have the opportunity to join with one in order to participate in this important service to the 4B Area. For additional info contact Kristy Mapp at kristy.mapp@bayarea.church.
BEAUMONT DISASTER RELIEF: Please consider a financial gift to aid in the disaster response to the recent flooding in the Beaumont area. During the month of October, we are asking folks to give to the needs of our neighbors to the east above your regular giving. So many people came to our help in the wake of Hurricane Harvey, now it is our turn to respond to their need. You can give online at: www.bayarea.church/give and choose the option for “Disaster Relief.”
First Saturday Serve: In cooperation with the 4B Disaster Response Network, the next First Saturday Serve is coming up on November 2. Consider joining other area churches as we assist families still dealing with the destruction of Hurricane Harvey over 19 months ago.
