SUMMARY:Deacons' Training
DESCRIPTION:SPECIAL OPS IN SERVICE \nFeaturing four biblical essentials for ‘Deacons on Purpose’ as taught by Dr. Ryan Day of Wrightsdale Baptist Church \nAbout the Training:\n \nFeaturing A Deacon on Purpose\, written by Dr. Tony Wolfe \nA healthy deacon body is critical to the overall health of the church. When deacons serve biblically\, they advance the cause of Christ; when they do not\, they hinder it. A Deacon On Purpose outlines four essential commitments every deacon must make to serve Jesus’s church well\, in concert with biblical teaching. 1) Lead by Example. The deacon is the lead servant in the local church. He should strategically leverage relational influence to model faithful Christian living and service in the body of Christ. 2) Serve the People. A deacon who is above the people is below the office. The primary function of the office is to serve Christ’s people with an open heart and open hands. 3) Support the Pastor and Staff. Deacons are an extension of the pastor’s long arm of ministry. The two offices must work in concert with one another if either is to be effective. 4) Protect the Peace. Other than the gospel itself\, unity is the most precious thing a church can possess. Deacons must cultivate and guard peace with careful intentionality.  These four sessions are primarily derived from Acts 6:1-7\, a passage widely understood to have laid the foundation for the office of deacon in the local New Testament church. \n \nPresenter:\nDr. Ryan Day\, Lead Pastor of Wrightsdale Baptist Church\, Peach Bottom\, Pa.\nDR. RYAN DAY\, a native of Westminster\, Maryland\, came to Wrightsdale Baptist Church as Lead Pastor in 2020. Prior to Wrightsdale\, he served at Grace Baptist Church in Hazleton\, Pennysylvania for twenty years. Ryan is a 1998 graduate of Baptist Bible College (now Clarks Summit University) and 2005 graduate of Baptist Bible Seminary. He also holds a doctor of ministry degree from Baptist Bible Seminary. When he’s not ministering at the church\, enjoying time with his family\, or making plans for the next trip to Ocean City\, Maryland\, Ryan enjoys presidential biographies\, the Baltimore Ravens\, and playing guitar in praise and worship settings. He loves Lancaster County and is excited about “Accelerating Kingdom Movement” within the BRN. Ryan is married to Heather\, and they have five sons and one daughter. \n\n\nAbout the Materials:\n \nWho’s Invited:\nPastors\, current deacons\, and prospective deacons \nDates/Locations:\nChoose the location nearest you! \n\nSaturday\, April 11\, 9:30am – 12:30pm: BRN Training Center\, Harrisburg (4620 Fritchey St.\, Harrisburg\, PA 17109)\nSaturday\, May 2\, 9:30am – 12:30pm: Keystone Montgomeryville Warehouse (506 Stump Rd\, Montgomeryville\, Pa.)\nSaturday\, June 20\, 9:30am – 12:30pm: Rolling Hills Church (120 Gernert Dr\, Verona\, PA 15147)\n\nCost:\n$20 per person (covers lunch and materials) \nRegistration:\nClick here to register \nQuestions?\nContact Dr. Ryan Day at ryan@wrightsdale.org.

SUMMARY:Serve Lehigh Valley
DESCRIPTION:Baptist Resource Network churches are invited to serve the Lehigh Valley\, with cities like Bethlehem\, Allentown\, and Easton\, which are among the fastest growing municipalities in Pennsylvania. The BRN is identifying the communities’ most pressing needs in partnership with these churches: First Baptist Church\, Allentown; Iglesia Bautista Hispana\, Easton; Keystone Fellowship; Mission Vida; Riverbend Community Church; and The Vine Calvary Chapel. Projects will go live in March 2026. These projects include opportunities\, such as evangelism\, light construction\, work with immigrants\, mobile grill outreach\, school and community beautification\, and more! \nTo help offset costs of the projects\, we are requesting a $15 donation (or a donation of any amount) for all participants\, except college students and youth/children. Your $15 contribution helps to pay for your t-shirt\, meals\, and pertinent materials for the projects you serve on. Your contribution is so appreciated because every dollar we receive helps pay for our projects and everything related to sharing the Gospel with these communities in the Northeast Pennsylvania. We could not make the impact alone so thanks for your generosity and partnership. \nLearn more at servepasj.com.

SUMMARY:Mission:Dignity Sunday
DESCRIPTION:Since 1918\, GuideStone Financial Resources has been on a “Mission” to provide “Dignity” to retired Southern Baptist ministers\, workers and their widows. These are men and women who have faithfully served God’s people and now find themselves struggling to meet even basic needs. Many served small\, rural churches that paid only modest salaries and couldn’t afford to contribute to their pastors’ retirement. Often\, these loyal soldiers of the cross had to work extra jobs just to make ends meet. \nMission:Dignity currently helps almost 1\,800 people with extra money needed for housing\, food and vital medications. It has also ensured a well-deserved dignity\, independence and\, often\, the ability to continue serving. \nFind more information and resources here.

SUMMARY:Religious Liberty Sunday
DESCRIPTION:As the Baptist Faith & Message 2000 declares\, “A free church in a free state is the Christian ideal.” We’ve provided a free video and bulletin insert for use in your church on this Sunday. \nBaptists’ unwavering commitment to religious liberty has been a defining feature of their history and identity. From the early theological convictions of John Smyth and Thomas Helwys to the modern advocacy of the ERLC\, Baptists have consistently championed the principle that faith must be free from state coercion. As the world becomes increasingly pluralistic\, the Baptist tradition of advocating for religious liberty remains crucial. By continuing this legacy\, Baptists and others committed to religious freedom can ensure that this fundamental right is preserved and protected for future generations. \nDownload church resources.

SUMMARY:Send Relief Sunday
DESCRIPTION:Send Relief is encouraging Southern Baptists everywhere to join together to meet needs and change lives through serving others across the world on Send Relief Sunday. \nHere are a few quick and easy ideas:\nFor churches: \nCreate care packages for grocery\, delivery and other essential workers. Show kindness by giving employees small bags with healthy snacks\, gift cards and other items. Include a note of thanks from your church. Your church could also consider packing bags in advance and working with the manager of a nearby grocery store to arrange delivery to all of the store’s employees. \nCollect school supplies. Although many school districts are still uncertain about how or whether to return to the classroom this fall\, one certainty is that students will need school supplies. Reach out to local principals and ask which supplies are most needed\, and then start a collection. After packing the supplies in bags\, work with your local schools to determine the best method of delivery. \nBe a prayer warrior. Make lists of people and needs specific to your church’s community\, and spend time praying\, not just for the people or their needs\, but also for God to reveal ways to provide ongoing encouragement and ministry to them. \nFor families: \nSocial distancing may prevent us from offering hugs and other expressions of personal touch or care\, but it doesn’t have to hamper our creativity when it comes to serving. \nGrab a donations box and fill it up. Help your children sort through clothes\, toys\, books and other items that are in good condition. Identify things that could be given to those less fortunate. \nSupport foster and adoptive families. An encouraging card in the mail or a meal delivered to their home can make an impact in the life of foster and adoptive families. For those in your community\, let them know that you are thinking about and praying for them. \nFor your children: \nChildren learn best and feel empowered when they engage in projects on their own. Help them get hands-on\, then stand back as they learn to give back with these ministry ideas. \nCreate thank you cards for medical personnel. Write a note of encouragement or have kids draw pictures for the medical staff at your local hospitals. \nGet crafty. Let your child create items — pasta necklaces\, painted stones\, cookies\, etc. — that they can share with neighbors\, along with a note of encouragement. \nUltimately\, it is God’s lovingkindness that draws men and women to Him (Jeremiah 31:3). Believers should seek to do this daily — but set Send Relief Sunday aside\, especially\, to be extensions of God’s lovingkindness to the world. \nVisit Sendrelief.org to find more ways your church can meet needs and change lives. \nAdapted from an article written by Gabriel Stovall of the North American Mission Board.
