† IN OUR PRAYERS  Jim B., undergoing treatment for pancreatic cancer; Ruth B., diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, placed on Hospice; Maggie C., recovering from COVID; Stephen Ministry and their care receivers.

† RALLY DAY-WE ARE THE CHURCH  Thanks to everyone who helped with this year’s Rally Day.  It was a wonderful celebration!

† TIME & TALENT SURVEY  There are Time & Talent surveys available on the round table in the narthex to be filled out when you have the time.  There is a black tray there also to collect the survey’s when completed.  We will make them available until we stop collecting them October 16.

† VACCINATIONS  Lacy Epperson will be providing flu shots after the church    service on Sunday, October 9, 2022.  There is a sign up sheet in the narthex so she can get a fairly accurate number of how many shots to bring.

† CROSSLINES OF CARTHAGE  For September and October Good Shepherd will   be collecting again for Crosslines of Carthage.  There will be a container in the narthex available for you to place non-perishable food items.  They would also accept monetary donations if you would prefer to donate that way.  Monetary donations can be placed in the offering plate in an envelope marked Crosslines or they can be given to the church office.

† I AM A CHURCH MEMBER  The Board of Elders recently finished working through the book, “I Am A Church Member”.  We found it to be a helpful resource for one who wants to grow and mature in their view of themselves    as a church member.  We did not make use of the “pledge” at the end of each chapter.  Use your own discretion there.  We are making the book available to whoever wants to read it.  The stack is on the table outside the nursery.

† MEALS ON WHEELS  Good Shepherd’s turn to deliver meals is this week.  If    you have questions please contact Sandy D.
