A MOMENT WITH THE PASTOR
Messages of appreciation are still being received for having the Deacon Ordination Service on Sunday morning. Many in attendance had never witnessed such a service. Brian and David did exceptional jobs in sharing their faith journey. Carl, Rodney and Ed were also outstanding in their participation. Remember, to pray . . . to encourage . . . and to follow our deacons.
October 29 is our First Family Reunion. We are emphasizing Sunday School and
worship attendance. There is a place for you Sunday! Then, don't forget our Fall Festival that night is for the whole family. Enter your chili or pie in the cook-off and we still need Trunk or Treaters to volunteer. There will be entertainment, plenty of food, fun and candy!
