Trunk or Treat October 24
Free fun for all ages from 2-4pm in the Beautiful Savior Church Parking Lot on Saturday October 24! Want to help out with the Trunk or Treat? If you can't decorate your car—bring your car and candy to the parking lot early and someone will decorate it for you. See Karen and Chris C before or after worship for more info on ways to help!


Blessing of the Pets October 4
The Blessing of the Pets will be at the beginning of the October 4 service. Pets may remain in worship if that works for them and their families, they may be returned to carriers, or taken outside/home shortly after the Blessing. If you can’t bring your pet, bring a picture, leash, or bowl and we’ll bless them from a distance. We would also like to pray with you if you are grieving the loss of a pet.

Parking lot closed for resurfacing September 8-10
On September 8 - 10, BSLC will undergo parking lot resurfacing and striping. You will not be able to park in BSLC’s parking lot, nor will you be able to walk on the resurfacing material. It will ruin your shoes! We asked that you notify any groups that you know of that come to the church to recycle or to have meetings that the parking lot is closed. Many thanks for your patience.
