FROM THE MISSION BOARD:  We have finally reached our deadline for Operation Christmas Child! We would like to extend a very gracious thank you to all the members of the church that have supported this mission through donations, time, and prayer. It is only through God’s blessing of our wonderful congregation that the Board of Missions can continue to be as successful in our pursuits as we have been. Stay tuned for our final count on our goal of creating 150 gospel opportunities to send throughout the world.

Thank you, Denise & Dave Yoreo, Deb Eddy, Travis Poudin, Christine Pericolosi

THIRD FRIDAY FELLOWSHIP is happening this month on November 19th at 6:00 p.m.  It is a time of gathering just to be with one another. If you would like something to eat, bring some to share. It make no difference if is a jar of peanuts or some wings. There is no agenda, though I did make a promise to bring pizza!  There is no telling what we may get into. Bring a game. Bring an instrument. Bring yourself and a friend!!  Come and join us for a fun, stress free, evening. It is open to everyone!
