Bara Student Ministry
BSM: Branded!
This Sunday night is going to be a special gathering as our entire BSM time will be led by our Summer Interns. They will be discussing how we are often branded or identified by our material things as opposed to who we are in Christ. They've done a great job of preparing a great night of fun with games and gift cards to give away, food to be eaten, and a better understanding of our relationship with Jesus. We'll be gathering from 6-7:15pm at the Bradley's (4004 Shrike Trail, Roanoke). See you there!
Summer Rec
For the 3rd year summer in a row, our Bara Interns have hosting our FREE Summer Rec. We've already had a phenomenal two weeks with days over 50 kids and coaches! We can still use your help in a few ways! First, spread the word. For all the information, get it here. Secondly, we can always use extra help and bodies, especially if you are a student in BSM or older. Lastly, please pray for our interns as they lead, all the kids that will come, and for the safety of all in the Texas heat. For more any questions, please contact Nicole Coetzer at Nicole@barachurch.com.

WELCOME
Bara Church would like to invite you to experience WELCOME.

If you have questions or simply want to get to know a few families better, WELCOME is for you. The lunch is free, childcare is free, and committing to participate is easy – The next WELCOME will be this Sunday, July 20th at the home of Joe and Karen Plagen’s.

Arise and Build
If you love accomplishing a lot at one time (think: one stop shopping) then you need to come check out our Arise and Build Prayer Nights every Tuesday evening at 7:00pm at the BARA offices. In less than an hour, you can praise The Lord for all He is doing in and through Arise and Build while you answer His call to pray audaciously for what is to come and if that wasn't enough: you will get to build new relationships with your BARA family!! One of the sweet byproducts of our Prayer Nights for those of us that have been participating is that we have experienced the joy of getting to know each other better in ways that can only happen by praying and spending time together. Give it a try and see how God can use a time of prayer devoted to building a building to actually build His church! For more information and directions to the Bara Church office click here.
