Brighton Presbyterian Church

We recently had a website re-design (shout out to DL Church Websites!). Our radio program is now available on our website as a podcast. Each podcast centers on a Sunday morning message and includes music and some familiar voices from BPC (other than Pastor Tim and Kerry :)). We are excited to continue in this broadcast ministry to share the Gospel in Upstate New York and beyond!

Tomorrow on WYSL 1040 AM at 10 am: Are Christians expected to keep the Sabbath? What did Jesus have to say about sabbath-keeping? Kerry Luddy continues her message on the fourth commandment (Ex. 20:8-11). "10,000 Reasons" is from Lifeway Music, and "Jesus, There's No One Like You" is from Sovereign Grace Worship.

"They aren't busy; they're busybodies." Ouch. The Apostle Paul doesn't mince words about some people who had given up and stopped working. Pastor Tim dives into 2 Thess. 3:6-15 tomorrow at 9:15 am.

Tomorrow on Hope is Here on WYSL 1040 AM at 10 am: Does God care if unbelievers take His name in vain? Why is how we treat God's name important in our faith walk? Kerry Luddy looks at the third commandment in Exodus chapter 20.

How do you stand firm when times are tough? In his message tomorrow at 9:15 am in the Sanctuary, Pastor Tim tackles 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17 in his continuing series on Paul's letters to the Thessalonians. Join us! Masks are required (if you forget one, no worries: one will be provided for you).

The final message of Kerry Luddy's series on the Ten Commandments is now available on our website, as are all of Pastor Tim's current messages from his series on Thessalonians!

Tomorrow (Wednesday, Sept. 16) at 7 pm in the Historical Room, we begin our new study on the book of Psalms (please park in the back and ring the bell at the back door--masks are required, and we can supply one if you forget to bring one). The psalms are a treasured compilation of hymns and prayers used in worship for well over two millennia (the oldest psalm is #90, attributed to Moses; it is possibly 3,500 years old). We will look at their purpose, how they were compiled and intentionally arranged, the different types, etc., and how the Israelites used them. For tomorrow's study: please come with your bible and have your favorite psalm in mind, and please share with the class why that particular psalm is meaningful to you. All are welcome to attend! Message us with any questions!

On the program today at 10 am on WYSL 1040 AM, Kerry Luddy continues her Ten Commandments with "First Things: the First Commandment." Pastor Tim leads a special prayer regarding all the "fires" in our country. If you miss the program, it can be downloaded from the WYSL podcast section on its website.

What does the second coming of Jesus mean for the believer? For the world? Pastor Tim looks at 1 Thess. 5:1-11 this morning at 9:15 am in the Sanctuary at BPC! Please join us (masks are required and one can be provided for you).

Have you ever had a beloved teacher move away suddenly? Perhaps you felt shortchanged or even abandoned? That’s how the people of Thessalonica may have felt at the Apostle Paul’s sudden departure and absence. On tomorrow’s program, Pastor Tim continues his new series on 1st Thessalonians with a message entitled, Motives, Methods, and Message. Tune in for his encouraging word about trusting God in difficult times. http://www.wysl1040.com/

Tomorrow at 9:15 am in the Sanctuary, Kerry Luddy continues the Ten Commandments series. How important is truth to you? Why does truth-telling matter? Also, at 10 am, WYSL 1040 AM will broadcast the first message in Pastor Tim's series on 1 Thessalonians, "On Being Chosen."

A Celebration of Life for Rob Kerwin will be held Saturday, Aug. 8, 2020 at 1 pm in BPC's Sanctuary (guests will be seated at safe distances from one another and are required to wear masks), followed by a cake and punch reception on the front lawn (it is Rob's birthday that day). The service will also be live-streamed for those unable to attend. Details to come on that!

Discipleship in Jesus is a matter of life and death. Sound extreme? Tune in tomorrow (July 26) at 10 am to WYSL 1040 AM to hear Pastor Tim's thoughts on Matthew 7:13-14. http://www.wysl1040.com/

Are you struggling with a lack of hope? Feeling weak and powerless to change? Pastor Tim's message tomorrow will encourage you about the very real power found in the Word of God. Join us at 9:15 am in the Sanctuary at 1775 East Ave, Rochester!
