FROM THE PASTOR\u2019S DESK<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud; be gracious to me and answer me! (Psalm 27,7)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is the prayer for our Sunday. The first word in Latin gave it its name: Exaudi.
\nOur Sunday is between Easter time and Pentecost, the coming of God’s Spirit.
\nThat is our position: we are waiting. As church we also have to learn to wait.
\nThere are two options how we can wait. When we wait for a bus of for an airplane we can read a book or we \u201cloose\u201d or time with one of our gadgets. The other form of waiting is: we do something productive. That is the form we have to learn as a church. We work hard, but at the same time we know that the result depends also from God. Therefore we cry to Him. The cry is the original form of a prayer. We ask for help, we pray for an advisor, an Advocate. Jesus promised us God’s Spirit. We are not alone.
\nHow can we discover the voice of God’s Spirit? We read God’s Word, we pray and we consult among our brothers and sisters. This is the Christian way to encourage one another. Let us move forward in this way.<\/p>\n

From Our Property & Management Committee<\/strong><\/h4>\n

NEW ROOM BEHIND THE ALTAR PROMISES TO GET LOTS OF USE!<\/p>\n

The BUC Property Management Committee is happy to announce another phase finished in our five-year plan to refurbish and \u201crefresh\u201d our church building.\u00a0 The latest renovation was of a former three-room space that for the church\u2019s first seventy years was the pastor\u2019s office, a conference room, and a storage space.\u00a0 In 1992, however, the pastor\u2019s office had moved downstairs just off the Fellowship Hall; and the rooms looked like this:<\/p>\n

BEFORE:<\/p>\n

Storage space<\/p>\n

Old Conference Room (dark, no windows, awful carpet, storage space)<\/p>\n

\"kiwanis<\/a><\/p>\n

Old Pastor\u2019s Office (windows full of termites, dreadful curtains, storage space)<\/p>\n

\"kiwanis<\/a><\/h3>\n

\u00a0AFTER<\/strong><\/h3>\n

New Kiwanis room (looking back towards altar door)<\/p>\n

Property Management, as always, wants to thank Alexis and his crew for their hard work. The Kiwanis has a two-year lease to use this beautiful new space.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thursday Evening Men’s Group<\/h3>\n

David would\u00a0remind all gentlemen in the church that they are welcome to join the men’s group that gets together every Thursday, 5- 7 p.m., at the Tryp Hotel (Albrook). \u00a0This is a time for fellowship and getting to know other members of our church family.<\/p>\n

Upcoming Events<\/h3>\n

Ladies Afternoon Tea<\/h4>\n
