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.

Corporate Confession of Sin:
True God and bountiful Father, Maker of all that is beautiful and good; we acknowledge our ingratitude and our insufferable self-love. You have created us for worship and given us tongues for praise. You have covered us with loving-kindness, and we have not been grateful; we have been proud and selfish, and we have neglected Your worship. We have loved the evil thing and indulged every unworthy passion. You gave us eyes, but we have not looked. You gave us ears, but we have not listened. You gave us lips, but we have not praised. You gave us hearts, but we have not considered. We have received, but we have not given thanks. We have been blessed, but we have not honored Your name. We have shown contempt for Thy gifts, and we have withheld what we owe. We have given what is not wanted, and we have offered what is lame and unclean.
We repent of our sins, and we implore Thee to hear and forgive, in the Name of Jesus we plead. Amen.
