Attention all NBRC members! We urge you to prioritize attending the upcoming virtual meeting on the last Friday of this month. It’s a club assembly, and the focus will be on the “Status of Our Club.”

Pastor Pauline will shed some light on Christian Nationalism and how that is affecting the church’s witness and voice in our society. We will strive to honor the Four-Way Test. It is the truth. We will certainly be fair to all. We hope to build good-will and better friendship through our discussion of it. In our opinion, more people learning about this is beneficial to all. 

Pastor Pauline and Eric enjoy their life together in contemplative time outdoors, hiking, exercise, cooking, hosting and attending dinner parties, visiting art museums, travel to new places, robust theological conversations, curating liturgies, and making their home a haven.
