Thanksgiving Offering: The Thanksgiving Day service is coming up on November 27. The Deacons are recommending the following designated places for consideration for your Thanksgiving Offering: Grace Covenant Ministries in Kentucky, Property Improvement Fund (Street Improvements), and upgrading the sound system.
Thanksgiving Meal: No plans for Thanksgiving Day lunch? Join us after the Thanksgiving Day Service, Thursday, November 27 at 11:00 a.m. Serving turkey, ham and all the other holiday favorites. Please call or text Jason or Shanna Snyder and RSVP with the number of guests (so we have enough food) or stop in church and talk to Pastor Mark. This invitation is open to anyone. Please no take-out or delivery.
Operation Christmas Child: Please consider packing a shoe box gift for all the boys and girls who may not get one this year. One box touches the entire family and teaches them about the good news of Jesus Christ. The boxes are by the Welcome desk. Bring them back November 17-23rd. That gives you plenty of time to take the children or grandchildren shopping and let them help you choose gifts. The $10 donation for shipping is being paid by our church again this year. If you have any questions let me know anytime. Iris Talsma
