We at Big Trees Community Bible Church Welcome You


Hi, I’m Pastor Jeff.

While I’m away in October, Sunday sermons will be presented by key individuals: Hans Wilhelm and Pastor John Detrick.

Find more information on our detailed sermon schedule here.



Operation Christmas Child


The Murphys Life Group invitation

Operation Christmas Child is an opportunity to share the love of Jesus with children around the world by packing and shipping shoeboxes filled with Christmas gifts. This year we plan to pack and ship 300 shoeboxes!

You can participate by: (1) packing your own shoeboxes and bringing them to the church; (2) buying items for shoeboxes and dropping them off in the box in the church foyer; or (3) donating cash to help ship the boxes.

In November, we’ll have a “box packing party.” Join us, please, when we’ll put the boxes together and pray over them. More information about our party will come later.

What should you pack? What should you avoid? To help you decide, see our helpful list.



Starting Soon: Arnold Kids’ Club

Beginning October 14, Arnold Kid’s Club will again meet at Hazel Fischer School, every Monday, from 2:05 to 3:15 p.m. Elementary-age kids are invited to join us for Bible stories, snacks, and fun.
