Christmas Cards For Our Missionaries:
Encouraging
missionaries who are often separated from their families, country and
friends is one of the most critical roles we play. We can do that at
this time of year by remembering them with a Christmas card. Boxes for
the Missionary cards will be found on the Missions table beginning next
week.
Missionary Christmas Gifts:
There will be a basket
on the Holiday table to collect funds toward Missionary Christmas
gifts. We will be sending monetary gifts to our missionary partners:
The Kleis family, and the James family.
Thanksgiving
Service:
We will celebrate Thanksgiving as a Church Family on Sunday, November
20, at 6 pm. This special service
will include a devotional, corporate praise, prayer and the reading of
the “leaves” from our traditional Thanksgiving
Tree. It will be a blessing for the entire family. Families are
encouraged to bring a pumpkin or apple pie for our
fellowship time after the service. Nursery care will be
provided. Please pray for Scott Aiken who will be teaching
the
Thanksgiving devotional!

gospel will lead sinners to Him in saving faith! |
