Belize Bibles

If we can raise the full $8,000, we will be able to place the 200 leather study Bibles, plus provide additional Biblical resources to the library at Belize Bible College. You can give cash or checks through our normal means of offering.
Greet and Treat
Greet and Treat is an annual outreach to our neighborhoods on the night of Halloween. Your home becomes a place of hope and love on a night when children are out knocking on doors. The church will provide you with bags that include an invitation to church, a gospel tract, and a treat. You provide a home where children are greeted with kindness. You can pass out the bags from your door, or put a game on your front driveway that encourages people to stop and linger for a moment. Gather a few friends from church, turn on your porch light, and be ready to Greet and Treat on Oct. 31. Greet and Treat Bags will be ready for pick up on Oct. 26.
