Aligning Your Life With Your Designs - Sunday Class
God gave each of us a unique and distinctive package which includes personality type, temperament, spiritual gifs, talents, and passions. The question is: How do we use this God-given package in the most effective way with the limited amount of time we have?
As we look at each of these areas, you’ll become more confident in who you are, understand why some people drive you crazy, how to appreciate the differences in others, and determine how to spend your time doing what you love. We’ll also look at ways to plug into ministries that align with your design here at Belgrade Alliance.
Join us for this empowering 6-week Sunday School class starting March 22, at 9:30 am, taught by Bev Coggins. Let her know if you’d like to attend. Room #145.

Youth Ministry

Service Wanted - Free Friday Lunch
We’re excited to share that we are starting an outreach called Friday Lunch! Each Friday during the high school lunch hour, we’ll be providing students with a free lunch as a simple way to bless them, build relationships, and show care for our community. To make this possible, we’re looking for volunteers who would be willing to help by providing a dish. We’ve created an online sign-up  where you can sign up to bring one or more dishes on the Fridays that work best for you. Whether you’re able to help once or multiple times, your generosity will go a long way in creating a welcoming and meaningful experience for students. Thank you for partnering with us to love and serve high schoolers in such a practical way. If you have any questions or want to serve, please feel free to reach out!
