U-Haul In the Parking Lot!

Saturday! | 9 am-1 pm
Benefits Bridge of Faith Community Church
Rockaway Beach, MO
Bridge of Faith, one of our mission partners, runs a thrift store as part of their ministry. It benefits their community by providing needed low-cost items, and it provides the church with opportunities for ministry and evangelism.
There will be a U-Haul in our parking lot to collect donations of items to sell in their thrift store. Any kind of garage sale-type items are welcome—furniture, household items, kitchen appliances, clothing, etc. (No TVs or computer monitors, please!)
Note: Please do not bring items prior to October 12th!
Thank you!

Help us out!
1) Please let your Life Group leader or the church office know if you or someone in your family is experiencing hospitalization or a death or birth within the family. Our ministers and deacons want to care and pray for you.
Salvation, spiritual transformation, or health concerns that you want to be listed on the weekly prayer sheet need to be submitted by Wednesday noon. This is not a confidential document, therefore, please ask permission from the person before sharing their need. Contact the church office anytime if you have an urgent need.
Thank you!
Phone: 417-886-3851

2) Our deacons desire to care for the needs of the body. They call and visit those who are unable to attend regularly or are alone. If you know of a South Gate member who would be blessed by this ministry of our deacons, please contact the church office to make us aware of the need.
Thank you!
