Dear Friends of Burnside,
This week is Remembrance Sunday and we will begin the service with an Act Of Remembrance at 11:00am. We will continue to find out how Jesus Changes Everything. Last time we had Judas’ Betrayal, this week we have Peter’s Denial as Jesus Changes Failure To Fruitful. Don’t forget to join us for a short service of Preparation for Communion on Wednesday evening at 7:00pm
