Listen/Read

Our church staff are being diligent in keeping our web site current and complete so that this is the main place you can go for information. In addition, we are continuing to utilize our Sunday Bulletin for brief and concise announcements, our Welcome Center and Lobby Pillars for ministry brochures and sign-ups for current opportunities, our BCC Facebook page for reminders on upcoming age/life-stage relevant events, and mass e-mails as another cost-effective means of communication. We want to simplify how we communicate so you can simply connect and engage in the life of our BCC family and the communities we live in.

For those who do not have access to e-mail or the internet, we have good alternate options! They will be kept well informed through our Sunday morning verbal and bulletin announcements; as well as, detailed flyers or brochures at our Welcome Center, Lobby Pillars, and Church Office. In addition, encourage anyone you know that does not have access to e-mail or the internet to please call or stop by during office hours and talk with the Church Office (763-682-1470) about any questions they have or information they need. We are here to help!

We encourage you to engage in reading the creative means that our ministry leaders are using to inform you of what is available for you to connect, learn, grow, and serve in loving God through our Lord Jesus Christ and loving others - to God’s glory!

Also, we need feedback from you so that we can realistically evaluate how effective our part is in the ways we communicate to you. To do so, please feel free to e-mail Dana or call the Church Office. In addition, any opportunity that you would like to communicate to the BCC family, read the information to the left of this column or contact Dana to discuss the potential publicity options available for you to use.

Use the white box, located on the right, by clicking on the respective title to be linked to the below options.

The Bulletin is our weekly Sunday worship folder. It is reserved for announcements that are current and concise. To listen to recent sermons click on Sermons to search by date or title. Any news or letters that our Lead Pastor Bill Miller and/or the Elder Board would like to distribute to the congregation will be found at Congregational Updates. Any downloadable forms or documents found on any of our church web site pages, can be easily accessed for you to print, fill-out, and/or read from the Downloadable Information page.
