Announcements

1. ALTAR FLOWERS
The beautiful flowers that adorn our altar this week were provided by Lisa Vydra in memory of the 9/11 victims and survivors.

2. DINNER WORSHIP- STARTING SEPT. 11TH 4:30-6 pm
A dinner worship is not a potluck nor a new idea. It was Jesus’ worship style taking place at the table around a meal. At the dinner table, Jesus shared a lot of stories, and so will we. So, in addition to our formal worship service every Sunday morning, Pastor Sam invites you to dinner worship, where we can gather face-to-face with a simple late afternoon Sunday meal.

The outdoor dinner worship will be held around the community garden every Sunday from September 11, 4:30-6 pm. If the weather is not permitting, the spacious fellowship hall will be our gathering place.

All (anybody, all ages, religious or non-religious) are invited! Please bring your friends, stories, and the food you want to share. If you are willing to prepare dinner, set the table together, or for more details, please visit the BFVUMC website, bfvumc.org/dinner.

3. CHURCH CONFERENCE 2022
This year’s Church Conference will be held on October 2nd.
The Administration Council/SPRC will meet at 8:20 am, then immediately following, our District Superintendent Rev. Jeffry Bross will lead our worship service for the conference. Each committee’s annual reports will be due by September 18th.

4. CHANCEL CHOIR
Come join the Chancel Choir! We will be rehearsing Wednesday, September 14th from 6-7 pm.

5. IT’S BELL CHOIR TIME
