New Membership Class
3/17 @noon to 2pm – Grab some food and find out more about BMUC and what you can do to join the church (hint: it’s very simple). If you are interested in joining the church and becoming a full member, I hope you will take this class. You’ll find out about the history of our church, why we are called BMUC, more about your church staff, and you’ll have the chance to ask any questions you’d like. Find out how you can be involved in the church, the different resources available to you, and what we can do for you! Please sign up by contacting me at craig@bmuc.org or calling the church office or just talking to me and letting me know you’d like to take part.

Drive Carefully – increased traffic enforcement
A message from Berkeley Police Department: Over the next month, members of the Berkeley Police Department will be conducting increased traffic enforcement throughout the city. Officers will be looking for violations made by drivers that put the community at risk. These violations include drivers speeding, making illegal turns, failing to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and failing to stop for signs/signals. In addition to this enforcement, officers will also be looking for impaired and/or distracted drivers. Since the beginning of the year, there have been over 45 collisions throughout the city where people have been injured. Our hope is that this increased enforcement will make our community and roadways safer.
