“Christmas is upon us and we want to celebrate! The Big Wood band is excited to announce a Christmas concert event: ‘A Not So Silent Night’! 

Mark your calendars and bring your friends and family out for a lively evening of music, shining a fresh light on the Christmas story through music.”

Join Chip Booth, (guitarist in the CofBW praise band) and others members of the band on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays each month at the Commons for an evening of fun and music as we learn together how to play popular songs, folk music and more. 

Our goal is to help musicians at various levels in their musical journey learn how to play together as a group, focusing on listening, timing and playing parts. All instruments as well as singers are welcome. Participants are encouraged to suggest songs they would like to play.

Church of the Big Wood is excited to invite you to participate in our annual “Fall Focus,” this year entitled Practicing The Way. Named after a book by well-known pastor and author John Mark Comer, this eight-week study is described by Comer this way: “We are constantly being formed by the world around us. To be formed by Jesus requires each of us to become his apprentices.”

It's that time of year again......Big Wood School's Annual Fundraising Raffle.
And this year the packages are going to BLOW YOUR MIND!!!

Thanks to funds raised from our previous raffles we have been able to accomplish so many amazing things that have helped us to create our extraordinary, one-of-a-kind, top-notch learning center and preschool! We have raised money for our Security and Front Entrance Remodel, our Sensory Room Renovation, our Playground Upgrades, our Scholarship Fund, our COVID Relief Effort, our Touchless Water Bottle Filling Stations, our gorgeous Vinyl Flooring and Carpeting, and the Continuing Early Childhood Education Opportunity granted to our teachers to participate in national conferences, providing enrichment, inspiration, and encourgement. Every one of these things has benefitted our students, staff, families, school and Church exponentially and that is all because of YOU!

We are excited to let you know about a new opportunity to get to know others in our church - we are calling it, "Meal and Mingle." This is a chance during the last two weeks in April to get together with 6-8 others from the church and share a meal together. Getting involved is simple - we have folks ready to host different groups in their homes - all you have to do is sign up for the group that fits best for you. You can get more details and sign up in the lobby, or online on our website.

The Family & Children's Ministry of Church of the Big Wood will be providing childcare ($10/child*) for 3 years old - 5th grade on Saturday, February 10, 2024, from 5-8pm, so that parents can enjoy a date night out on us!
