Hello, BRN Family! It’s great to be with you today!

I wanted to let you know the Baptist Resource Network has evangelism grants available for churches to purchase spring devotionals to distribute during outreaches before or after Easter.

Churches may apply for a $50 evangelism grant toward their purchase of either The Easter Code: A 40-Day Journey to the Cross or The Apostles’ Code: Unlocking the Power of God’s Spirit in Your Life, available at 99 cents each, at https://churchsource.com.

In these affordable paperback resources, readers will embark on a 40-day journey, guided by author O. S. Hawkins, to prepare their hearts and minds for Easter Sunday through The Easter Code or discover the power of the Holy Spirit in their lives through The Apostle’s Code.

Both books provide a daily reflection accompanied by a Code word for the day, an encouraging Scripture, and a prayer.

And even better: all proceeds from the sale of these books will benefit Mission:Dignity, GuideStone’s benevolent ministry to retirement-age Southern Baptist ministers, workers and their widows.

Also, if your church is intentionally engaging your neighbors and you need resources, please let us know. The BRN has some evangelism grants available for those who are seeking to actively share the Gospel through special projects and/or initiatives this Easter season.

Interested churches can contact the Helpdesk at helpdesk@brnunited.org to learn more.

As Easter approaches, please be assured we are praying for you, believing the Lord will rise among us and give us hope beyond our expectations. May this resurrection remembrance serve to remind you that Sunday is coming! We have a very hard and long year, but God is still on His throne and is accomplishing more than we can see. May He truly be “the resurrection and the life” in our hearts and in our churches!

Thank you and God bless you!
