News & Events

Community Prayer   
Join us for community prayer where we gather each week for a focused, refreshing time of intentional prayer.  It’s a simple, heartfelt space to seek God together and intercede for the needs around us. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to come!
 
Men's Bible Study  
Attention Men of Belgrade Alliance...Fred Heinrichs is gearing up to lead an all men's bible study. If this is something you're interested in, reach out to Fred or the office for more information. The study is called The Quest for Authentic Manhood and it's brought to us by Robert Lewis of Men's Fraternity.  This will be a 24-week in-depth study on everything God intended when He created Adam.  You will gain a new sense of masculine identity by obtaining a personal manhood vision, and gain answers to questions men often ponder such as: How does one become a man?, Is there a moment when it happens?, and How should masculinity be expressed today?. This will be an opportunity to meet other men who are asking similar questions, and it will provide time to search your heart with the goal of finding a clearer, richer, and nobler masculinity for yourself. The study will take place at Belgrade Alliance Church at 6 PM every Tuesday starting on September 15th.
