Every need in the world is an OPEN DOOR to share God's love. That's why, as a church family, we're responding to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) crisis, not by panicking or hiding out of fear, but by serving the people who are most vulnerable.
No matter how frustrating, confusing, or scary this crisis gets, fear doesn't have the final say. 1 John 4:18 says, “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear.” Our hope is built on the perfect love of Jesus Christ, so we've been called to share that love with the world. And that's exactly what we'll be doing in the coming weeks and months as more and more people in our community are in need.
During harsh and economic times, we are committed to do what we can to help the membership of SBC and community. Let us know how we can be of assistance
