NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER:
The National Day of Prayer is an annual day of observance held on the first Thursday of May, designated by the United States Congress, when people are asked “to turn to God in prayer and meditation”. The president is required by law to sign a proclamation each year, encouraging all Americans to pray on this day.
The Apostle Paul admonishes us as a people of God to pray for all men, for those who are in authority over us (1 Timothy 2:1-5).
Big Valley Grace will recognize the National Day of Prayer with an evening of prayer where we seek the Lord and intercede as a church for our local, state, and national leadership. No registration is required.
For more information and resources on this event, as well as other ways to participate and pray on this day, visit our National Day of Prayer webpage.

Do-A-Thon 2023!
We are so close to hitting out 2023 Do-A-Thon goal of $130,000! But it's not too late. We can still take donations online and turned into the offices. Mrs. Mott said she is still ready to be slimed! So let's do it! Just $3,883 to reach our goal!
Want to see some of the sweet and amazing ways BVCS students were serving during the Do-A-Thon? Go to our website to find the cute pics. JH/HS will be having serve days in the spring and all of our classes will be praying for their missionaries this year.
We are so thankful for your generosity! God is doing great things at and through our school!
AUCTION UPDATE:
The Big Valley Christian School DINNER & AUCTION was a huge success! Between our sponsors, bidders, and tickets, we were able to raise over $60,000 for the BVCS IMPACT Fund.
In order to live out its mission to nurture and equip students to impact the world for Christ — and to do this with excellence while remaining affordable — Big Valley Christian School needs God’s people to provide financial resources for one critical fund: The IMPACT Fund. The difference between what tuition covers and the actual cost of providing an education at BVCS is the margin of excellence that makes all the difference for students, staff, and families. Each year, we rely on four events to build our budget: The golf tournament, the Do-A-Thon, the auction, and the tuition assistance offering weekend (April 27 & 28).
Each event allows BVCS to share our ministry work with our valued partners who generously support our work. These events and the generosity of God's people continue to make it possible for us to live out our mission to nurture and equip students to impact the world for Christ.
