Next Steps

Making Room Sanctuary Expansion Update: On May 31, we voted to approve the sanctuary expansion project, which will add 7 extra rows of seating on both sides of the sanctuary (85 additional seats). We are excited to make room for the continued growth we are experiencing here at BCC! We recently launched the Making Room Campaign with a fundraising goal of $225,000. For those of you who have already pledged and given toward the project, thank you! If you have already made a donation, please remember to fill out a card to indicate whether it was a one-time donation or a monthly pledge. This enables us to plan the project and know how close we are to our goal. If you would like to pledge or give, see the pledge cards on the info centers or visit https://www.bellinghamcov.org/making-room.

Summer Sermon Series Guide - We have put together a daily reading schedule and response guide to lead you through the letter to the Philippians. You can pick up a copy from the info centers in the foyer.

Experience the Global Church - Merge Trips connect Covenanters with global partners doing ministry in their own contexts. This fall, trips are available to Roi Et, Thailand (Sept 26–Oct 3), and Ometepe Island, Nicaragua (Nov 21–28). Perhaps you would consider going with your small group or a few church friends? Visit the website for details and to sign up: https://merge.covchurch.org.

BCC Summer Jam Times - Join us after church in the sanctuary on July 12, July 26, August 9, and Aug 23, to play and sing together at our Summer Jam! This is an opportunity for anyone to come with voice or instruments and jam with the band. Practice your band skills if you want to join the regular worship team but don’t feel quite ready or simply come to play your instrument with others for the joy of it in a no-pressure setting!

Pray for Venezuela - A series of powerful earthquakes has devastated communities across Venezuela, leaving thousands dead and many people displaced, injured, and in urgent need of support. Covenant World Relief and Development is responding alongside trusted local partners to provide emergency assistance, including temporary shelter, clean water and hygiene support, and care for children and families affected by the disaster. We encourage you to pray for those who have lost loved ones and for all those in crisis. If you want to give financially to bring immediate relief, you can donate here: https://giving.covchurch.org/priorities-detail/international-disaster-response.
