Sunday Announcements
Thank you for your Faith Promise pledges! 28 families have now pledged to give $17,915 over the next year. We know God will work through your faithfulness! If you are still praying about what to pledge, cards available in the bulletin and in the lobby can be placed in the offering plate or handed to an usher.
Thank you Workers! Thanks to John and Paula Harms, Bill and Becky Selvidge, Johnson Wang, Eason Lee, Andy Johnson, Dan Harmon, Evan Hamer, Nan He, and the Menning family for the new paint and clean walls in the Fellowship Hall, the adult wing and the foyer areas!
During October we pause to express appreciation to our pastors for their care for us. It is difficult to adequately thank them for how selflessly and faithfully they offer their lives to us in ministry. Please take advantage of this month for an extra thank you, stop and pray with a pastor, send a note saying how much they mean to you, and in other specific ways thank God for these dedicated servants. The pastoral staff are listed on the last page of the bulletin. —Personnel Committee
Sunday night, November 1, at 6 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall, Pastor Phil will tell us about his sabbatical. Come hear about this important time and enjoy fellowship, a light meal, and dessert.
