Beginning on July 1, the youth group began meeting again on Wednesday nights. Things are a little different, but we're glad to be back again! We have to meet outside, which means that there will be a lot of bonfires and water games this summer. Students are asked to bring masks to wear in the event that social distancing isn't possible, but meeting outside provides us with...

Due to the COVID-19 shutdown and restrictions, our VBS this year will be online. Each day, the students will participate by watching one video which will be posted online (with music and a message) and completing one Activity Sheet. Depending on the governor's guidelines, we may be able to host one or two family events throughout the week. The theme this year is a pirate o...

July is here! Do you like the heat? I really don't. However, I love the anticipation of the Fall.Sometimes the Christian life is exactly like that! We go through challenging times, the heat is on, and as we walk with the Lord through the trials what gets us through is the hope we have on the other side. Ultimately our hope is in the Lord and what He will do. What a challen...

Christ - Our Answer So, how do we handle the virus, racism, social upheaval and unrest that surrounds us today? What are we to do? How do we act? What can we say? What should we say? How do we balance our rights as citizens in a Democratic Republic and our Christian faith? How do we maintain our focus in an emotionally charged environment? As Christ followers how are we t...

Dear Church family, Walk by Faith! This is one of the primary commands of the New Testament and certainly the whole of Scripture. "Love one another" is certainly a primary command given to believers and we can see how this is reflected throughout Scripture as well. With that said, we are to walk by faith. What does that mean? How does this work in our lives? How do we kno...

One of the things I've missed most over the past couple weeks is Wednesday night youth group! Fortunately, we've still been able to meet with some of the students every week from 7-8pm on Zoom. Each week we play a game (like Pictionary), have a Bible study, and spend time together in prayer. We've had asmany as fifteen students on so far! Although it's not the same thing a...

With the shutdown in place, we've been doing a lot of things online. Every Sunday we have music and a sermon from Pastor Erik on Facebook live. Throughout the week, Pastor Erik hosts live devotionals on Facebook as well. If you missed any of those videos and would like to see them, you can find them at https://www.hhbcnj.org/devotions. Also, some testimonies from our chur...

Dear Church Family,I trust you had a wonderful Easter! I know this has been a really different season of time. The virus situation has been quite a challenge for everyone and certainly has 'interfered' with our normal schedules. With that said, we know the Lord is in control! The truth is that our 'normal schedules' are His. Anytime He wants to change it up He can. The que...

Thus begins another decade in the life of Haddon Heights Baptist Church. In February, we'll be celebrating the 124th year in the life of our church, and we are so thankful for all the ways that God has blessed us. It's an exciting time in the life of our church, so let us look to the Lord in all things for His wisdom and guidance. With the new year, we are pleased to anno...

Dear Church Family, Have you had a wonderful Christmas? I trust you have enjoyed the season celebrating the Lord along with friends and family. Thank you for your 'staff offering' gift. We really appreciate your generosity. I can't believe how many cards and letters I received. Thank you for your love, support, prayers and friendship. We are grateful for what the Lord has...
