THANK YOU to everyone who helped with the work day yesterday. What you did to help is greatly appreciated.
MOTHER’S DAY OUT DEC. 11 If you want to go Christmas shopping without your children, the youth group will baby sit for you on Sunday afternoon, Dec. 11, from 1:00 to 5:00 here at the church. There will be games, crafts and even snacks for the children while you are shopping to your heart’s content. There is a sign up sheet in the narthex to let the youth group know how many to plan for.
SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS/BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING Next Sunday, Nov. 20, after the late service, there will be an important meeting for all the current teachers and board members. Lunch will be provided. Anyone interested in helping with the Christian education of our children by teaching or serving on the board are encouraged to attend.
ASSISTIVE LISTENING If you are having a hard time hearing the service, assistive listening devices are available from the ushers. They work like a transistor radio and you can control the volume.
BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS are available in the narthex after each service. You will be given a small form that can be carried in your wallet which will include medical information and a log of your blood pressure readings.
PRAYER BEARS are in the sanctuary pews and available to be signed out (notebook in narthex) and given to anyone that needs God’s love, comfort, and peace. We have had reports and words of thanks from folks being blessed by this outreach ministry.
TAPES OF THE SERVICE Audio tapes of the service are available after the 8:15 am service each Sunday. They are located in the glassed-door cabinet in the narthex. Tapes of the previous Sunday are also available.
