We're Watching Tropical Storm Ida
As you know, Tropical Storm Ida is forecast to strike as a category 3 hurricane and make landfall on Sunday evening. Ida is a potentially dangerous storm, and the protection and preservation of life is one of our highest callings as followers of Jesus Christ. Your pastors are watching the weather very closely and will make a final decision about having church Sunday morning by tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon. This decision will be communicated via email, social media, and text.

NOTE to Youth Parents: Sunday night Youth Group has been cancelled for Sunday, August 29 due to Tropical Storm Ida.

Join the Methodist Build for Habitat for Humanity

The 2021 Methodist Build will kick-off on September 25 and run through November, weather permitting. The home will be built at 907 N. 31st Street for a to-be-determined family. Habitat for Humanity is the perfect project to serve and meet people where they are in their journey to find Christ.

Work days are Wednesday and Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Lunch and drinks will be provided to volunteers. If your group, family, or you individually would like to participate, please contact Lynn Bradley at lbradley@bradley-blewster.com or 225.939.3052. Lynn will send you volunteer information, map to the home, and registration form.

There are also other ways to help with the Methodist Build. You can pray continuously for a safe and productive build, bring bag/box lunches to work groups, or make a financial donation. Donations can be send directly to Habitat for Humanity of Greater Baton Rouge at 6554 Florida Blvd, Ste 200, Baton Rouge, LA 70806. Please write "Methodist Build" on the memo line.

Thank You for Helping Broadmoor Elementary

Many thanks to everyone who donated school supplies to support student learning at Broadmoor Elementary!

With your help the following was collected: 65,025 sheets of notebook paper, 2,456 crayons, 1,852 pencils, 231 colored markers, 139 notebooks, 122 dry erase markers, 100 pencil top erasers, 83 scissors, 80 pocket folders, 28 glues, 24 ball point pens, 19 rulers, and 15 bottles of hand sanitizers. We also received a great Batman book sack which went to a boy whose mother had just died and whose father has COVID.

There's another way you can help Broadmoor Elementary have a great school year! One of our church members, Karen Bacon, nominated Broadmoor Elementary for the SignUpGenius $5,000 Back-to-School Giveaway. 73% of children attending Broadmoor Elementary are from low-income families so this money will be greatly appreciated by the school. Click the link below to nominate our adopted school to win this amazing prize! Deadline to nominate is September 15.
