Articles on Raise the Roof

Word is reaching our neighbors about the unexpected additional expenses we’ve faced this year - bringing the cost to protect and preserve our buildings to $170K, $50K more than we raised in donations to Raise the Roof. We’re grateful for these two articles lifting up our story:

Please consider exercising your faith by stretching your giving to meet our expanding needs.

Whether you give more than you pledged to the General Fund or make an additional gift to Raise the Roof, you will join with others whose additional gifts are making a difference at Brookside.

Old Baking Sheets?

As you get ready for holiday baking, if there are any metal baking sheets you are getting rid of or replacing, please bring them to the church. We’ll repurpose them as a part of our Advent Craft.

Join us after worship on 11/28 (the first Sunday of Advent) for an all-ages craft that centers on this theme. We will also be giving out updated materials for the Advent Candle Holder from last year. If you need an Advent Candle Holder, please contact Pastor Nicolette pastornicolette@gmail.com as we have a few left from last year.


In our Hearts, In our Prayers:

The lonely, the isolated, the anxious, the fearful

The sick, the dying, the grieving

Students, teachers, administrators

All those facing devastating losses from hurricanes, wildfires, and earthquakes

The people of Afghanistan and all who live in places of uncertainty and violence

Our leaders, our communities, our nation

Prayer Joys and Concerns will be listed weekly. Requests received by Tuesday of each week will be included in @ Brookside and will remain there for a month unless otherwise requested. Please forward your requests during the week to: office@brooksidechurch.org
