A Virtual Holy Week Experience for Every Age

To prepare ourselves for Easter you are invited to participate in Journey to the Cross, a unique multi-sensory experience that is appropriate for the whole family. This experience is a youtube video that you watch on your own schedule, that will engage you with scripture, music, fine art, prayer, and reflective activities as you walk in the footsteps of Jesus from the Last Supper to his burial.

What Is Our Why?
Enjoy a new weekly feature where we get see how God is at work in the Children's Ministry Board.
Rachel Loescher serves as the Children's Ministry Board's Kids.Comm Coordinator, and she has been member of BSUMC since 2014.

It has been wonderful seeing all of the Children's Ministry board members work so hard during the pandemic to ensure the children have safe and meaningful church experiences. There has been a lot of time and dedication to make this happen. I have enjoyed remaining connected during this time and getting to know the board members better.
