Other Upcoming Activities

SJBC will hold a business meeting Friday, June 13, 2008.  The meeting will start promptly at 8pm.

 

The Department of Christian Education serves as an agency to promote educational seminars, series, topics, and other growth opportunities for the entire church membership in order to better prepare it for service.  The Department of Christian Education meets on selected dates which are posted in the Sunday Church Bulletins. Some of the auxiliaries are:

Sunday School:

 Sunday School is not an auxiliary in the full sense of the term.  It is an opportunity for the entire church to be at study.  Classes are available for all age groups - from pre-schoolers to senior citizens.  Sunday School begins at 9:45 a.m. 

Church-at-Study: 

The Church-at-Study provides opportunities for individual and group growth via semester courses in Biblical Studies, Family Life, Personal Development and Enrichment, Financial Planning, Black History, Arts & Grafts, Children’s Studies and more.  For those interested in enrolling in classes semester schedules are provided.

Rev Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Activities Committee:

This committee is devoted to maintaining the legacy of Dr. King. Special programs, Friday night dinners, Black History Month celebrations, annual luncheon, and specialized programs for teens and young adults provide opportunities to learn about Dr. King’s obedience to the word of God as he impacted the lives of so many. There is something here for everyone-children, teenagers, and adults.

MLK Scholarship Committee:

The Scholarship Committee oversees the creation, fund-raising and support of scholarships for students entering undergraduate or graduate studies.

National, State and Local Conventions and Associations:

The auxiliary involved with national, state and local conventions and associations is responsible for providing participants and delegates to the various Baptist conventions and associations that the church is affiliated with. Some of these include: The National Baptist Convention, USA; The United Baptist Convention of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire; TABCOM (The American Baptist Churches of Massachusetts); and the Adoniram Judson Association.

Educational/Civil Rights Forums:

These forums enable the fellowship to keep abreast of contemporary issues and explore how history has “shaped” our lives. These seminars, which are informational and instructional, cover a wide range of topics and provide opportunities to fellowship with other churches and the local community.

Academic/Family Support:

Provides opportunities for individual and group support via seminars, courses, advocacy, and tutoring. These opportunities are specifically designed to meet the needs of the congregation.
