Thanks to all who have generously given refundables for the Grade 8 class trip of Omar Alkreiz. We have $248 and will make the goal of $280 due to George Street School in April. In addition, we hope to raise another $150 before the June 8-10 trip to provide spending money, two lunches and one dinner not included in the $280.

 Refundable Bottle Drive – In support of Omar Alkreiz and his classmates on their grade 8 school trip to Quebec City please bring your donations of “return for refund” containers on Sundays and place in or beside a drop off bin at the church hall entrance.


And Can It Be? Please join the congregation of Brunswick Street Baptist Church for a reflective candlelight worship concert for Easter on Sunday, April 9, 6:30 pm.  The church’s music ministries will take part in the service.  The offering will go to the Fredericton Downtown Community Health Center.  A reception will follow.  All welcome.

PAR – Pre-Authorized Remittance (PAR) allows you to give intentionally, proportionally and faithfully to the church even when you are not able to attend in person.
