Happy Thanksgiving From your CRBA Staff
The CRBA office will be closed Nov. 27-28 for Thanksgiving.  We will be open our regular hours again beginning Monday Dec. 2nd.
Upcoming Opportunities 
Toy Store Prayer Wal
kToy Store Prayer Walk
Join us for a special prayer walk as we lift up the 30th Annual Toy Store in prayer! The walk will begin at 3:30 PM, and afterward, we’ll have a brief training session for all Toy Store volunteers. Whether you’re volunteering this year or simply want to support this event in prayer, we welcome everyone to participate. Let’s come together to bless this year’s Toy Store and the families it will serve!

Toy Donations Needed!
Stockings needed
Due to an incredible response for Toy Store this year, we are in need of additional toy donations. If you’d like to support this ministry, please bring your new toy donations to the CRBA office as soon as possible. This will allow us to assess how many toys will still need to be purchased to meet the needs of our community.Thank you for your generous support of this ministry as we reach out to families in Burke County!

Spanish Speakers Needed

Do you speak Spanish? We’re looking for volunteers to assist at the Toy Store! Your help would be greatly appreciated. Please call us at (828) 437-0137 to get involved. 




Ministers and Wives Christmas Party
