New Women's Bible Study

RSVP by March 26th

Ladies, exactly what do Christians believe? Do you know the Apostles' Creed and can you say it "by heart"? Packed with meaning and hope, it summarizes the core essentials of the Christian faith.

GROUNDED in CREED is a 6-session DVD study and panel discussion led by pastors Jim and Jennifer Cowart, Matthew Hartsfield, and Jorge Acevedo (who grew up in our church). Join us for this meaningful time of studying exactly what we believe. April 5th - May 10th, 3 study groups:

  • Wednesday mornings, 9:30-11:30am in the church Parlor
  • Wednesday evenings, 6:30-8:30pm in a nearby home
  • Thursday evenings, 6:45-8:30pm ONLINE

A participant workbook will be provided by Belle Isle Community Church at no cost. Register online HERE no later than March 26th to secure a workbook.


Family Night Ladies

Pursued God’s Relentless Love for You by Jennifer Cowart

We all want to be loved. We long to be desired, pursued. It’s the story of your life and mine, and it’s the story we see throughout the Scriptures. Although there are many sub-stories in the Bible there is really just one main theme: God’s relentless love for us! Throughout the Bible we see that God wants us to know Him, to love Him and to live our lives in relationship with Him.

In this six-week study we will explore God’s great love for us from Genesis to Revelation through the stories of creation; the patriarchs and matriarchs of the faith; the judges, kings, and prophets; Jesus, our Rescuer; and New Testament encounters. And we will discover that although we have broken relationship with God, He runs after us anyway to bring us home. Get ready to dive into a great love story and discover that it is our story!

  • April 5th - May 10th, in the Parlor at 6:30pm - 8:00pm
  • Childcare will be available

A participant workbook will be provided by Belle Isle Community Church at no cost. Please RSVP online HERE by March 29th to secure a workbook.

Holy Week Wooden Crosses

Missions Support

Church member, Al Waltz, has made a limited supply of wood crosses for anyone wishing to place one in their yard during Holy Week. The 66" cross is collapsible for easier year-round storage and will include three pieces of fabric.

Stop by the Church Office during office hours, (Monday-Thursday, 9:00-4:00) to pick up your cross. 

Your charitable contribution for the crosses will help support our sister church in Las Tunas, Cuba.


Lent Sacrificial Giving

As we reflect this Lent season on the generous gift of Christ's sacrifice freely given to us, we are encouraging each member and attender of Belle Isle Community Church to consider tithing during this time as a sign of putting our trust in Him.

We are also receiving gifts above your regular giving in support of our sister church in Las Tunas, Cuba. Following Easter, Pastor Scott will be visiting our brothers and sisters in Christ and ministering at the annual UM District Pastors' Conference. He will personally deliver the much-needed funds for the Cuban church at that time.
