NORTH TEXAS GIVING DAY!
September 23, 2021
18-hour Online Event
Communities Foundation of Texas’ NTX Giving Day is an 18-hour online giving event designed to empower every person to give back to their community by supporting local nonprofits and causes they care about in one easy-to-use platform.
The event helps build awareness and support for nonprofits like nothing else. In 2020, $58.8 million was raised through 106,000 donors benefiting over 3,200 local nonprofits, bringing the eleven-year total to over $374 million for our community. NTX Giving Day is the largest community-wide giving event in the nation.
Since its inception in 2009, this online event has transformed from an idea to help local people give wisely, to a movement that has ignited a broad culture of community-wide giving. During NTX Giving Day, everyone has the opportunity to be a philanthropist to build a stronger and more vibrant community.
We each have the power to do something today that helps our community be the best it can be! #BeTheGood on #NTxGivingDay 9/23/21!

BREAD CHURCH
Sundays, Main Room
10:30 am-12:00 pm
At Bread our worship begins each Sunday as we read together these words:
We gather together in the name of Jesus Christ. We are members of God’s family, brothers and sisters to one another. There are no outsiders among us. No one here has any special standing or bragging rights. We have all been brought together by the redeeming love of Jesus. Let us all join together in worship!
We believe that the church is changing and in the 21st Century women and men, young and old are looking for that which will bring meaning to their lives. We are asking questions—how can I make a difference in the world beginning in my neighborhood and city; how can I use my money for good; does church have a word for me about how I live my life; how do I become a person of compassion; how do I love my neighbor; how do I love myself; does God love me. We believe Christ is our center and all are welcome within the circle of his love and grace.
There is no membership requirement. There is no giving requirement. There are only two rules: 1) Everyone is welcome. 2) We will never own property - we believe it detracts from our call to be salt and light in the world.
