BHPC observes the Lord's Supper weekly. We invite all professing Christians whose membership is in good standing with an evangelical, Bible-believing congregation to join with us at the Lord's Table. If you desire to partake of the Supper, please contact one of the elders for a short interview. You may do this prior to Sunday through the church office or via email, or arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the beginning of the morning worship service. If you have not been interviewed, we ask that you refrain from taking the Supper.

A Few Notes About Our Services
* If you are visiting with us today, please help us to get to know you by filling out one of the blue cards in the pew racks and placing it in the offering plate when the offering is collected.
* When the prelude begins, please curtail conversation and prepare your hearts for worship. Please make sure electronic devices are off or using silent mode.
* We love children in our worship services! For our parents, there is a Cry Room in the back of the sanctuary for calming children in order to return to the worship service. We also offer a Visitors' Nursery for children 3 and under. If you wish to utilize it, please speak with the greeter for directions.
* Hearing assistance devices are available at the taping table.
* If you should need assistance in any way, please speak with our greeter.

Corporate Confession of Sin:

Heavenly Father, not one of us is righteous, nor understands, nor seeks after You. We have all turned aside from You. None of us does good; no, not one. With our tongues we have practiced deceit, and our mouths are full of cursing and bitterness. Our feet are swift to shed blood, and the way of peace we have not known. There is no fear of You before our eyes. Forgive our lawless deeds, we ask, and cover our sins. Do not count our sin against us, O LORD. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen. (Romans 3 and 4)

Merciful Father, we have become corrupt in our ways and have forgotten the LORD our God. We are guilty of backsliding and have turned away from You.
