No English Conversation or regular Sunday activities this week

Church of the Nations will not have English Conversation this Friday September 23. Also we will not have our regular Sunday morning Bible study or worship this Sunday September 25. The church bus will not be able to pick people up. This is because most of us will be at the camping trip Saturday and Sunday.

However  we encourage people who do not go with us on the camping trip to come for worship and Bible study with University Baptist Church:

  • Traditional worship (similar to Church of the Nations) in the “big sanctuary” at 9:00 a.m.
  • Bible study at 10:10 a.m.
  • “The Journey” (more relaxed style of worship) in the “big sanctuary” at 11:00 a.m.

Please visit www.Ubc-br.org for more information.

Please remember that we return to our regular activities the next week. Bible study, worship, and free fellowship lunch on Sunday October 02.

Let’s meet for lunch! Rick teaching at Louisiana State University this year

Some of you know that Rick Wright – pastor of Church of the Nations – is teaching a class at Louisiana State University this year as an adjunct instructor. His class is Monday through Thursday mornings in Coates Hall near the Student Union. That means he is on campus four days a week! He would love to get together with internationals for lunch. Does not have to be at a restaurant – we can bring our own lunches and meet somewhere. And he can come to where you are. Classroom, office, lab – wherever.

If you would like to him to come meet you for lunch send him an email at Rwright@Ubc-br.org or call him on his cell phone (number below). He can meet people for lunch any day except Monday.

No English Conversation this Friday

No English Conversation this Friday September 02. We do not have English Conversation on the Friday before the first Sunday of the month.
