Promotion Sunday is August 22, 2021! The Christian Education staff are planning a morning full of opportunities to learn more about how to re-connect or engage for the first time with the BSUMC family. Children will also "move up" to their new Sunday school rooms and begin getting to know their teachers!
Begin the new school year with a blessing! Children are invited to wear their backpacks and join school teachers and staff in receiving a blessing at all worship services!
We hope you’ll join us as we present Bibles on August 29! 3rd and 4th grade students will be recognized and celebrated at all worship services this year, due to the pandemic. Families of these students are invited to attend a luncheon at the Trinity Campus following the 11AM worship services. Click the image to register for the luncheon.
