PNC Update (4.24.2024)
Since we began our search for our next Senior Pastor in December 2022, you have been praying. We are grateful; we have felt the Spirit’s guidance and encouragement every step of the way. We sense the Lord at work right now, and we yearn for the Spirit to keep moving. Would you join us in praying fervently in the coming weeks?
Follow-Up to Faithful Engagement: Race and the American Church
On April 5 and 6, Blacknall’s Committee on Jesus, Race, and the Church (JRC) hosted “Faithful Engagement: Race and the American Church,” a two-day workshop exploring the intersections of faith, Scripture, and race relations in the United States. The workshop's four-person teaching team included Blacknall member Charlene Brown and three other Christ-following leaders from Virginia. Charlene has been in deep relationship with these leaders for many years and has served with them in ministry, primarily through Intervarsity Christian Fellowship.
