Hello, BRN Family! It’s good to be with you today. I wanted to send out a hearty thank you to our churches for their generous support of our annual Week of Prayer and Offering for State Missions last week. What a great time to pray for all the work being done through Baptist Resource Network churches. We are so thankful for you!

Thank you so much for your participation in giving as well. Because you gave, the work in Pennsylvania/South Jersey will continue, especially in the areas of BRN Next Collegiate Ministry, Compassion Care, and Disaster and Crisis Relief.

Your support enables our 12 collegiate ministers across multiple campuses to continue meeting with students to share the Gospel and to reverse the increasing percentage of young adults who leave the church! The college years are a crucial time to reach these students.

Your support helps our many churches who have been loving their neighbors through compassionate food distribution, prayer and encouragement. It is incredible to hear the stories of churches who are meeting the needs of community members affected by the pandemic. May God’s Gospel light shine bright in the midst of this very challenging time!

Your support also assists disaster relief volunteers who are ready to help whenever a disaster strikes. Our BRN teams have worked tirelessly to clean up after major flooding and to help provide food and personal protective equipment for our churches and their communities. God has moved mightily, and we look forward to more ways to spread the Gospel.

I know we recognize the Week of Prayer and Offering for State Missions only once a year, but did you know you can pray and give any time of the year? Simply visit brnunited.org/offering to see the latest prayer requests, resources, and ways to give. Knowing this year is so different, we’ve expanded the giving opportunities to include giving through Facebook and GoFundMe. Your gifts really matter. Thank you!
