THANK YOU
The Youth Connection Ministry would like to thank all who had a hand in making OctoberFest 2025 a success. It takes a collection of incredible volunteers to achieve extraordinary results. The God led family event harvested approximately 150 children and adults planting the seed of Jesus Christ. No assignment was too small or too big. Volunteers stepped in where needed and the Youth Connection Ministry will be forever grateful for your sacrifice.

COLLEGE SUPPORT MINISTRY
STAYED ANCHORED AND CONNECTED – The College Support Ministry is all about helping college students with family ties to Bellevue stay connected and encourage each other.
Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three gather in my name there am I with them.” and 1Thessalonians 5:11 “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” (NIV)
These Scriptures embody the mission and values of BBC College Support Ministry. If you know any college students who could use some support, just send their contact information to the College Support email address: bbccollegelife@yahoo.com or call the church office.

NEW MEMBER FELLOWSHIP LUNCHEON
We want to thank God for all of the new members that He has sent into our Church for 2025. We also want to thank Rev. & Mrs. James and Anise Venzant, and Mrs. Deborah Fullwood for working with our new members. We want to thank all of you who have played a role in bringing new members into our Church family during the past year.
To God be the Glory! On Sunday, November 9th following the worship service, there will be a fellowship luncheon in the Ministry Center to greet and fellowship with our new members. The whole Church is invited. Plan to be with us and make our members feel welcome.

A HOMECOMING TREAT We have a Homecoming treat for you this year. Susan Milauskas, one of our former members has been working on a book about the history of Bellevue entitled (Sweet, Sweet Spirit). The book is finished and we have copies at the church in the library. It has many stories and testimonies from our members about our Church. I think you will enjoy reading it. God has been faithful to Bellevue through the years and it is a blessing to share His faithfulness with others. For members who want a personal copy, you can purchase it from Amazon for $14.50 plus shipping and tax.

Are you looking for a ministry to serve in? We have several openings in our church time ministry. Due to the influx of newcomers, volunteers are needed in the nursery (infant-4 years), as well as elementary and High School aged youth. Volunteers should be consistent and faithfully committed to serving two or more Sundays per month.
Please contact Sis. Fleury or Deacon Garlan Garner if you are interested.

Healing Through Sharing Our Grief Journey-
But you, O Lord are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts my head, Psalm 3:3. Grief is the price we pay for love. We come out of it better able to help others. We have walked through the valley of the shadow of grief. We can understand. If you have experienced the loss of a loved one recently or in the past years and would like to share your grief journey.

PASTOR’S REQUEST
1. Talk to God and let God talk to you by reading His Word daily.
2. Fast and pray one day a week. For members who are on medication that will not permit them to fast, talk to the Pastor about an alternative.
3. Lift up every unsaved person that you know by name in prayer. Make an effort to win at least one unsaved person to Christ this calendar year.
4. Pray for unsaved people to come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord.
5. Pray for every Christian who have fallen away to renew their relationship with the Lord.
6. Ask God to have His way in your life and every situation.
7. Invite someone to Church and Sunday School every week. For people who cannot attend Church in person, invite them to join us via live streaming.
8. Plant the seed of the Gospel whenever the opportunity presents itself.
Thank the Lord for the opportunity to share your faith.
If you join us in this effort, God will bless your labor of love and you will help your Church to grow.
