We Celebrate St. B's Day on Sunday, August 10 |
Join us on Sunday, August 10, for a joyful morning as we honor our beloved patron, Saint Bartholomew. One of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus, Bartholomew is remembered for his unwavering faith – even in the face of martyrdom.
And, after the service, let’s gather for a fun-filled time in the gym with games, tacos, and all the fixings.
⭐ We need volunteers! Click here to sign up to bring an item to share or to help with the event.

The Middle School Youth went on a mini-Middle School Adventure last week to play mini-golf, escape an escape room, and enjoy Chipotle together! They were able to break the escape room record with 28 minutes left on the clock and enjoyed the afternoon together. Special thanks to Rachel Dyer for making this event happen!

Make a hands-on impact by helping sort, stock, and pack food boxes at The Branch’s food distribution center. Volunteers also have the chance to distribute food directly to families—a powerful way to connect with our neighbors in the Antioch community. This is a meaningful service opportunity for individuals, parents, and kids (ages 10 and up) to serve together.

As we orient ourselves into the back to school season, one of the ways that you can help us get ready to welcome your youth is by filling out our St. B’s Youth Registration Form! This helps us staff our Sunday Morning Formation and events properly, have the latest health and safety information for your youth, and make sure you are getting the proper communications for your family.
If you are a returning family (meaning your youth has been in youth formation before and there are no major changes to your family’s information), you can fill out our Returning Youth Registration Form.
If you’re new to the youth formation community or have major changes to your families information, you can fill out our New Youth Registration Form.
Please note: These forms are just for grades 7-12th.

Prayer for Unwavering Faith
|
Lord, you call on us to pray for our enemies. Have mercy on those who are disposed to do us evil and who divide your church. Deliver us, Lord, from every temptation. Have mercy on our lack of belief and our wavering faith as we travel the path towards the unity of your people. You are our God and we want always to be your people under the guidance of your Holy Spirit. |
Prayer by the group from Zaire who prepared for the
Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 1993 |
