How You Can Help Our New Pastors
The obvious answer is to pray regularly for them. Another way is to introduce yourself, repeatedly. There’s one of them and hundreds of us. I can assure you, they won’t be offended if you take the initiative to introduce yourself more than once!
There is another way. It will take a little initiative on your part but will be invaluable to them.
Online Church Photo Directory
If you are not already members of our Online Church Photo Directory — please do so this week. Imagine how helpful it would be to a new pastor to be able to scan the online directory until they find the face and then, name, of the person who really encouraged them with a kind word? Or, they scan the directory and see the faces that belong to an individual family. This week, the Watters joined the online directory so that they will have access to your faces, names and whatever other details you wish to include.
How does it work?
You contact the church office (bsbc@bsbc.nb.ca or receptionist@bsbc.nb.ca), indicate your interest and provide the email address you wish to use. The office will set that up for you, send you the link and you will establish your own password for your account. As far as security is concerned, only those in the directory have access to the directory, that is, it cannot be accessed by anyone surfing the net. This is predicated on the notion that none of the members of the online directory share their email and password — we’d ask that you wouldn’t do that.
We’re here to help you get set up
It might be that uploading a picture is a challenge for you. If this is the case, email the photo you want to use to the office (email above) and we’ll get that done for you and walk you through adding the data you feel comfortable making available.
OH, and don’t you think it might be helpful to you to have access to the directory? So you can find out who that person is that sits next to you each Sunday morning!
Thank you for considering helping our new pastors in this very practical way!
