The COVID-19 coronavirus has wreaked havoc on our daily lives, as much of Greater Boston has shut down. Some individuals have been impacted physically and financially. Therefore, our church will collect a special offering over the next three Sundays (April 5, 12 and 19) for the Boston Resiliency Fund, created by the City of Boston.

Priorities of this fund include providing access to food for various at-risk populations, technology to Boston Public School students for remote learning, and support to first responders and health care workers who are on the frontlines fighting this pandemic.

In addition to joining the online worship, you can also worship with your child at home. We will be putting resources on this page each week to help your family worship experience. Your child can use this page from their computer or tablet to worship.

Family worship is as simple as gathering the whole family to:

  • SING praises to our God through online videos
  • READ/LISTEN to the Lesson – Read the passage and follow along the lesson video.
  • PRAY – Follow the prayer guide outlined in the lesson section.

For youth programming, the Newton youth ministry meets online on Sunday mornings at 10 am and on Friday evenings at 7 pm. Visit the BCEC Newton Students website for more information.

Thank you for your partnership. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we understand that we may prayerfully adjust our giving. For some, we may chose to give less. For others, we may decide to give more. Whatever your gift, thank you for your partnership.

You can now make an offering to BCEC using your credit/debit card by texting 30131. You can text-to-give to one of four funds.

Note a credit card fee of 2.65% plus $0.45 per transaction will be deducted from your offering.  (The fee for online giving through e-check costs less at $0.35 per transaction. Thus giving via e-check would make your gift go further for BCEC. You may also consider increasing your gift to cover the cost of the transaction fees.
