BEYOND SUNDAY ...
There is something being offered almost every day of the week by Brownsville Community Church for those who would like an opportunity for a midweek connection, worship and/or learning.
The weekly Sunday services that start at 9:30 a.m. are in person (and on line) are followed by traditional coffee hour fellowship.
Sunday and some midweek services will continue to be available live online at https://www.facebook.com/brownsvillecommunitychurch/.
When the weather warms up, some services will move outdoors to our new pavilion. The Tribute Park Pavilion is one more outreach project of the Brownsville Community Church where many functions have happened and are welcome.
Sunday School for youth is available during the part of the service following the Pastor's Children's Message.
Adult Bible Study & other weekday services are available several times a week.
