OUTREACH
We believe that outreach includes preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ as well as meeting felt needs in our community. We try to be a blessing to those around us.
MEETING NEEDS
Food + Clothing Distribution – The Bell Branch Church Family delivers food and clothing to those in need at McPherson Square Park in Washington, DC on the first Sunday of the month. Please email the church if you would like to participate either in the preparation of the food from 7am – 9am (at the church in Gambrills, MD) or in the distribution of items (in DC) from 10am – 11am. All are welcome to join and contribute to this positive impact to our community.
Weekly Food Pantry – Covid-19 has affected our community in many ways. In order to support those who are going through challenging financial times we operate a food pantry which is open each Saturday from 1 to 3 pm. When arriving, please pull to the front of the church and remain in your car and someone will come out to assist you.
Holiday Care Program – We provide meals to families in need during the Holiday season. For Christmas, we adopt a number of families and provide gifts for underprivileged children.
Free Water Nights – During the summer we pass out free water during Saturday night concerts at Waugh Chapel Town Center. Summer nights are hot! And we want to be a blessing.
PREACHING THE GOSPEL
We believe in the soon coming of Jesus Christ and God’s desire for every person to be in a loving, saving relationship with Him. We provide opportunities for everyone to hear of the matchless love of Jesus.
Annual Prophecy Seminars – Twice a year, we hold a month long seminar on the prophetic books of Daniel and Revelation. We love sharing with all the hope that is found in these books!
Weekly Bible Study Groups – Every week, we hold two Bible studies that are open to all no matter where you may be in your spiritual journey.
Relevant Sermon Series – We try to provide sermons that not only highlight the gospel, but that speak to the cultural and societal context in which we all live.
