Advent Conspiracy Book Group

As we enter the busy holiday season BFJN is gathering together to read the Advent Conspiracy. This amazing book calls Jesus followers to substitute compassion for consumption and invites us to cultivate countercultural practices. Together we will consider these practices, encourage one another and seek to center Jesus and his call on our lives this Christmas. Join us! We will send the first 20 participants a free copy of the Advent Conspiracy book and we will meet together via Zoom 11/30 to talk through the first half of the book and then again in person (Zoom available for those unable to attend) on 12/14 to finish the discussion and celebrate Advent together!

Freedom Concert 2022!

This event will take place Saturday, April 9th, 6:45 pm at Christ the King Presbyterian Church in Cambridge.

This is a night of worship, live music, a survivor’s time to share her story, and fellowship. This is a fundraiser for Route One Ministry, a local anti-trafficking non-profit. We serve Jesus by serving women sexually exploited and equipping the church. In the past, the Freedom Concert has been essential to impact more than 200 people with the awareness of trafficking in the United States, introduce attendees to the work of Route One, equip leaders to take action and provide a beautiful platform for a survivor to share her story.

Hope to see you and your friends there!
