Elected Leaders at Bergen Park Church
Each winter we ask you to consider & nominate candidates for the offices of Trustee & Elder for BPC. In general, the Trustees look after administrative matters & the Elders direct spiritual growth and vision. Each candidate must be qualified for the position by being a member of Bergen Park Church & fit the descriptions found in 1Timothy and Titus. If you would like to nominate a candidate for either office, speak to that person to get permission, then speak to one of the current Trustees or Elders..
The BRIAN ALCORN BOX
WOW!!!!! Many thanks to all who contributed to the Brian Box(es!!) Right now we have enough to fill several boxes and will stagger sending them.
This is so cool! Stay tuned for further developments!
PASSION SERVICE April 1, 2010
We will be having a Passion Service at 6:30 pm on Thursday, April 1 at the church.

Haddad Happenings!
As many of you know, Jonah and Amy Haddad, our missionaries in France, are expecting twins in just a couple of months. We know they are going to need some very necessary items, like cribs, strollers, car seats, etc., for the babies. However, it is much too costly for us to send these items through the mail. We would like to send them a monetary gift from the church so that they can make headway on purchasing these things. Here is where you can leave gifts and cards to them. It will be here until March 15th. Cash or checks will be accepted but it would be good if you can make out your check to Bergen Park Church and designate it for the Haddads. We will send them just one check from the church so they will not lose as much money in the conversion to Euro dollars. This will NOT be tax deductible since it is a personal gift.
We know they will love to get cards and personal messages from you so please include those as well. Thank you for being part of this special event in their family. They are expecting a boy and a girl so Lenora and Caedmon are quite excited about this!!
There are some reprints in the back of the church of Nick’s most recent email from which these excerpts are taken
