The spring Sunday School class schedule for the spring is now posted. The semester begins on Sunday, January 7.

The Church Office will be closed all of next week, December 25 – 29, and on January 1.

Please “read more” and follow the deadlines to ensure that your year-end contributions count towards the 2023 tax year.

In case you missed it, you can now watch Part I of the Jesus-Shaped Time class taught by Wen Reagan (recorded on Nov. 26, 2023)

We are excited to introduce Brandon Miller as Blacknall's new Director of Children’s Ministries!

Quieting our hearts to focus on Advent may take different forms, rhythms, and Scriptures. Stop by Blacknall's library to find resources to help you on your journey to Christmas…

We’re excited to announce the release of Lessons & Carols: Live from Blacknall Church, a new album from Blacknall Arts, our in-house songwriting and recording initiative. Our first “live album,” Lessons & Carols features recordings from the 2022 Folk Service of Lessons and Carols

Please join us this Sunday, December 3, for a Congregational Meeting to elect the Officer Nominating Committee (ONC). The ONC nominees are Margaret Frothingham, Mark Hayes, Bo Harrison, and Sam Poole.

We're sad to announce that Leslie Cenezy is leaving her position as Blacknall's Business Manager. Over the past four years, Leslie has worked closely with the Building & Property and Finance committees to manage our office, finances, and facility: rentals, security, IT, maintenance, and repairs.

We are delighted to announce that the Nursery Hall will reopen this Sunday, November 19, for children ages 0 - 3 years old. Four-year-olds will also return to the Bugs class in the Nursery Hall for Sunday School (10 a.m.).

Carol Smith, Blacknall’s Financial Administrator, is retiring at the end of this month. Carol has served at Blacknall for more than seven years and will be missed.

We are now accepting applications for the position of Financial Administrator (FA). The job description — written after careful consideration of our church's needs and with invaluable input from our current Finance and Personnel committees — has been approved by the Session and is now posted on the employment page of our website

Please look out for communication from a Blacknall elder who is your Elder in Prayer. The Session annually assigns each active member or regular attender an Elder in Prayer. These elders pray for you regularly and want to get to know you.

Please welcome Julie Leyva to her new role as Blacknall's part-time Middle School Coordinator! We're so grateful for Julie's willingness to help fill a staffing gap before we hire a permanent Director of Middle School Ministry.

In case you missed it on Sunday, we invite you to watch the Focus on Missions presentation about our Deep Common Journey (DCJ) partnerships.
