DID YOU PRAY WITH PASTOR?

If you prayed with Pastor to receive one of the invitations he offered, congratulations! Please send your name and address, along with what you prayed for, to info@berithcf.org and we’ll send you some information to support your decision.

MEMORIAL MEAL

We celebrate the Memorial Meal on the 1st Wednesday of each month during Covenant Circles and will do so this Wednesday, August 6th at 10am & 7pm. If you are unable to join us on Wednesday, look for an email that day with a reservation link for the Alternate Memorial Meal Celebration. If you are planning to attend the Alternate Celebration, be sure to RSVP by Friday at 3pm. The Alternate Memorial Meal will be dependent upon responses. We’ll see you on Wednesday.

BACK TO SCHOOL

On next Sunday, August 10th, all children, youth, and adults starting or returning to school are invited to receive a blessing from Pastor Rick during Sunday service. If you or your child would like to participate, please arrive for service no later than 10:00. Also, be ready to follow the direction of the Ushers, Greeters and/or Children’s Ministry Teachers & God Squad Mentors when it is time to prepare for the ceremony. Parents, please be ready to assist your children with following those directions. If you have any questions, you may call the office at 510.638.7870.
