Greetings!

It is hard to believe it is the last week of October. This year has been weird, but it has passed quickly. As we head into November, we want to remind you that This Sunday is the end of Daylight Saving Time. So, don't forget to reset your clocks, get an extra hour of sleep, and join us Sunday morning.

The Lord's Supper

The Lord’s Supper

Sunday, November 15

Gather with your church family to remember Christ’s sacrifice. During this special time of worship, we will take time to thank God for His provision in our lives and remember Jesus' incredible sacrifice on the cross for us. Because our focus for that week will be on the Sunday morning service, we will not pre-record an online service for the week. We will, however, record the live service to post online at a later time.

Operation Christmas Child

Every packed shoebox represents an opportunity to share God’s love with children in need. More than 75,000 pastors and church leaders share the Gospel every year at outreach events where shoebox gifts are delivered and the Gospel message shared.

Join us in blessing 100 children with the hope of Jesus Christ this year! We encourage you to pack a traditional box just like we have in years past and bring it to church on Sunday, Nov. 15. You can also build a shoebox online to help us reach our goal. Or do both!

New Ministry Opportunity

Calling all encouragers!!! We need you!!!

As the holiday season begins and we look to finish out the year strong, we need all hands on deck to rally around our people. This Fall, we are launching a new "Member Care” ministry, and we are asking you to consider being a part of the team. This ministry will be a ministry of encouragement as we contact our members and care for needs as they arise. As a part of the team, you will have the opportunity to write note of encouragement, send cards, make phone calls ,and even make an occasional visit (following all appropriate social distancing protocols).

This ministry will be an opportunity to provide care and encouragement for our members who are unable to attend in person. For various reasons, we have some who are unable to worship with us regularly, and we want them to know that they are still a part of our community. Your encouragement could make all the difference in their lives this Fall.

We need all encouragers to attend a special meeting at 6:00 pm on Wednesday, November 11. During the meeting, we will discuss aspects of the ministry and provide ways to get involved. We will also be sharing a special Thanksgiving ministry opportunity with you. We are asking that at least one representative from each Bible study group attend our meeting and be a liaison for your small group.

We are so excited about this opportunity to share the love of God with our community. A basic of our faith is to provide encourage and edification to one another. Please join us in building up the body of Christ together. I promise, you will be glad you did!
