JUNE 2024 MISSION OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU!
Blue Ridge Baptist Association will have a canopy set up at the Livermush Festival June 1st highlighting all the churches of the association. We will be giving out free items to kids and adults as they walk by and asking them how we can pray for them. We need several more churches to sign-up for a one hour slot. Two churches have signed up for 5-6 and 6-7. It will be fine to have two churches signed up for each time slot. Currently, the slots from 7-8 and 8-9 are available. We need 2-3 people to volunteer to spend an hour under the canopy and pray with people during that time frame. Dennis will be there during this time as well.
Have you ever felt led to go on a mission trip not far from home, but didn’t feel like you had the funds or the skills needed to go. THIS UPCOMING TRIP IS FOR YOU. The Blue Ridge Baptist Association is putting together a team of 4-6 people from our churches to go to Pennsylvania June 15-21 to help a church conduct a Block Party. For those interested, please contact Dennis on his cell phone (828) 925-0735. More information will be shared then. The Association will be covering most expenses.
