Operation christmas Child

This year we are once again providing shoeboxes for anyone who would like to pack them for Operation Christmas Child. This is a ministry that sends gifts and the gospel to children all around the world, and we can participate by packing a box and returning it to church by November 16 so it can be shipped out. Stop by the table in the lobby this Sunday to get a box and information!

October 19 - Youth Group Book Study

Once a month, our youth group will meet to study through the book Respectable Sins by Jerry Bridges. This resource walks through what Scripture says about many categories of sin that we tend to gloss over and not treat very seriously. We hope it will be a beneficial time of learning how to view sin the way God does. Our next meeting will be on Sunday night, October 19, at 5:30pm. 

October 26 - Prayer Night

Mark your calendars for a night of corporate prayer on Sunday night, October 26 at 6:00pm. We plan to gather together to come to God with petition, adoration, and thanksgiving, bringing needs before him and exalting him with praise. 

November 1 - Ladies’ Study

We will continue our ladies’ study on Saturday, November 1 at 9:00am. This year we are studying Consider the Lillies by Jonny Ardavanis, a book about how meditating on God’s character can help us to trust him in the midst of life’s trials. To prepare for this month’s study, please read chapters 2 and 3. We hope you’ll join us!

November 2 - Youth Event

On November 02 at 5:30pm, each teen in our church will have an opportunity to pack a box for Operation Christmas Child and send a gift to a child in need. We will spend time assembling the shoeboxes together and also personalize them by making a quick shopping trip to purchase some special toys and items to put into each box. We’ll also enjoy a meal and further study in the book of Proverbs to round out the evening. To RSVP for this youth event, please email us and notify us how many from your family will be attending.
