Just learned that Rural King is having Church Week again. If you have purchased anything or will be purchasing items from December 10-24th please turn in a copy of your receipt to the Church office. Rural King will give the Church 10% of the grand total. If you have any questions call the church. Thanks for sharing with us.

The evening sky put on a stunning show for our Trunk or Treat event. The weather was perfect, the “trunks” were decorated and the children and adults had an enjoyable evening.
Additional pictures will be posted on the Gallery page of this website.
As Don was driving to the church this week, he noticed this rainbow. It appears that the “pot of gold” was replaced with Bell Ridge Christian Church. We are grateful that Don stopped his vehicle and took this picture for all to enjoy.
The Genesis Sunday School Class held a “Blessings Drive By” for two of their class members, Rod and Diane. They have been homebound for several months and their classmates wanted to share Jesus’ love with them in a unique way. All of the participating vehicles were adorned with balloons, scripture and messages of love and hope as they drove by Rod and Diane’s home.
On a sunny day in August we gathered in Moonshine for “moonburgers” (and ice cream.) The weather was perfect for an outdoor lunch and enjoyable conversation.
Our junior high youth are enjoying a Summer Retreat this week in the Smoky Mountains. Eleven youth and our two youth ministers were scheduled to attend but one of the youth had to cancel at the last minute. From the smiles on these faces they are having an awesome week spending time in nature and learning about Jesus.
There are a few more pictures posted on the Gallery page. Go to “About” then click on “Gallery.”
Today was our last day of VBS with 64 children in attendance. The children learned that “God chooses you!” and the new memory verse was Isaiah 43:1 “I have called you by name; you are mine.” It was an amazing week with our young people learning that “You Are Treasured.”
Our closing program will be held this evening at 6:00 p.m. with a short program in the church auditorium and dinner outside in the area next to the playground.
The sun was shining at Bell Ridge today with 66 children enjoying VBS. They continued to learn that they “Are a Treasure to God” with lessons, music, worship, games, crafts, snacks and missions. The theme today was “God forgives you!” and their memory Bible verse was Nehemiah 9:17 “But you are a God of forgiveness, gracious and merciful, slow to become angry, and rich in unfailing love.”
VBS meets tomorrow morning (Friday, June 11) from 8:30 – 11:30 a.m. All Pre-K to 8th grade children are welcome.

Today’s theme at VBS was “God comforts you!” and the new Bible verse was 2nd Corinthians 1:4 “He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.” We had 66 children in attendance and numerous leaders and helpers. Wednesdays are also known as Tie Dye Day, a favorite craft with our VBS kids.

With more than 30 helpers assisting at VBS this morning, we watched 62 children learn about how they are a “Priceless Treasure” to God. Today’s theme was God hears you! After singing the theme song, they also learned a new song, “God Is Listening” and a new Bible verse, Psalm 116:1 “I love the Lord because He hears my voice and my prayer for mercy.”
