Our Ministry
To glorify God in all that we do by Introducing others to God who don’t know Him, Helping those who already know Him to know Him better, and Sharing God’s love and mercy to those in need. This is the Mission Statement for the Ministry Team.
As part of this mission, members of our Ministry Team and any others who desire to take part meet at BNE each morning at 7:30 am for a short devotion, to pray for those in need as well as give thanks. In response to requests from those who could not attend at 7:30 am, the Friday team meeting is held at 12:15 pm which gives those unable to make the morning meetings an opportunity to participate.
"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Daily Verse
""Thus says the LORD of hosts, Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another, do not oppress the widow, the fatherless, the sojourner, or the poor, and let none of you devise evil against another in your heart."" - Zechariah 7:9-10
Daily Devotional
Morning
“Wait, my daughter.”
“Be careful, be quiet, do not fear, and do not let your heart be faint.”—“Be still, and know that I am God.”—“Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?”—The haughtiness of man shall be humbled, and the lofty pride of men shall be brought low, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
Mary . . . sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. . . . “Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.”—“In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.”—Ponder in your own hearts on your beds, and be silent.
Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!
He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD. His heart is steady.—“Whoever believes will not be in haste.”
Ruth 3:18; Isa. 7:4; Ps. 46:10; John 11:40; Isa. 2:17; Luke 10:39, 42; Isa. 30:15; Ps. 4:4; Ps. 37:7; Ps. 112:7, 8; Isa. 28:16
Evening
“What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.”
“You shall remember the whole way that the LORD your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, testing you to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments or not.”
“When I passed by you again and saw you, behold, you were at the age for love; . . . I made my vow to you and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Lord GOD, and you became mine.”—“The Lord disciplines the one he loves.”
Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.—This slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen.
