Greetings!

Now that the children have headed back to school, activities are starting to pick up. Be sure to read on to see what is happening at Baring Cross.

Sunday Morning Bible Study

Beginning September 20th

9:30 a.m. in The Flanders Building

Small Group Bible Studies are the back bone of our church. This is where you make new friendships, have prayer support, encourage one another, and study the Bible together. Sunday school is where our guests get connected —where they get to know us, and where we get to know them. It is where guests and members serve each other and serve our community. It is the place where church becomes family.

Our church leadership has met and discussed the various ways we might go about inviting everyone back onto campus for Bible Study, as well as the guidelines we will follow. We have decided that Sunday Morning Bible Study for adults will begin meeting again Sunday, September 20th at 9:30 a.m. At this time, we will meet as one group in the Flanders Building. We continue to take steps to help our people feel comfortable and safe as they return to campus. We encourage people to wear face coverings and practice social distancing. We ask that you practice good hand-washing, and stay home if you are feeling ill or have been exposed to someone with Covid-19.

We are excited to gather together for Bible Study. We have been apart for a while — and it was a necessary thing. Now let’s safely come back together to worship, learn, and grow. We look forward to seeing you!

Youth Ministry

Student Prayer Cards

We are all called to share what the Lord has done in our lives with the next generation. To help our church in this area, we have created a new way for our adults to get connected with our students —Student Prayer Cards. These cards provide an opportunity for our adults to “adopt” a student for the year— to get to know them a little better, to pray for them on a regular basis, and to make an investment in their life. If you are interested in “adopting” a Baring Cross student for the year, please contact Preston. He would love to get you connected!

Student Ministry

Disc Golf Fellowship

Sunday, September 20 @ 5:00 p.m.

Join us Sunday afternoon at the church for a round of disc golf before our regular Sunday night Bible Study. Those who come to disc golf will meet in Flanders for Bible Study, and others will join via ZOOM.

Baring Cross Kids

This month in Sunday School, the kids will be learning all about friendship. Centered around the BLOCK PARTY theme, they will talk of how to use their words and actions to show others that they care. Be sure to like our Kids’ Ministry Facebook page for weekly lesson videos and discussion points.

Mid-Week Bible Study for Adults

Adult Bible Study

Wednesday Nights @ 6:30 p.m.

Paul wrote to the church in Philippi to encourage them to persevere with joy in the face of opposition. Paul wanted the church to advance the gospel as they live in courageous communion with Christ.

Our study through this letter to the Philippians will challenge us to find true joy and contentment not in our circumstances or comforts but in connection with our Savior Jesus Christ. Join us at the church for this time of important Bible Study.

Week of Prayer for State Missions

Click the video above to learn more about the ministries funded by the Dixie Jackson offering.

Dixie Jackson Missions Offering

The Dixie Jackson Arkansas Missions Offering and Week of Prayer each September is intended to highlight and encourage Gospel work that Arkansas Baptists are faithfully supporting in our state and beyond. Arkansas Baptist churches are the partners, prayer warriors, and volunteers behind new church works, community missions like the Acts 1:8 One Day Mission Trip, collegiate ministries, and Disaster Relief.

Please pray for these mission efforts, and pray about how God would have you give to support them.

Prayer guides are available in the church foyer. Click HERE to download a digital prayer guide.

Be sure to check out our Facebook page each day this week for more information about the Mission work of Arkansas Baptists along with a daily prayer guide.

This Sunday @ Baring Cross

This Sunday, you are in for a treat. Ben will be preaching on the sixth chapter of Isaiah. Be sure to join us to hear what word God has for us.

Join us on Facebook Sunday morning at 10 a.m. or on campus at 10:30 a.m. We will then post the service on our website at 11 a.m.
