Chili Cook-off & OCC Fundraiser
We had a great time at the Chili Cook-Off and raised $475 for Operation Christmas Child! Thank you for all who were involved!
Junior Church Volunteers Needed
Please consider volunteering for our 2-4’s class that happens during the 11:30 AM service. (Or if you have a special interest, we would appreciate the help!) There is a curriculum that is already planned so all that needs to be provided by you is a small snack and a willing heart. Reach out to Erica Pann for more info.
Operation Christmas Child Boxes
Please take home an empty OCC box to fill and return by November 22nd. We will not have the packing party but will have some filler items available soon. For information on how to pack the boxes, go to: www.samaritanspurse.org

Those of you who would like to come to Griefshare, the group meets on Thursdays at 4:00 PM. Come and meet with others who are finding their way through loss.
Church Email List
If you would like to receive updates and prayer requests through the church email list, or if you need to update your email address, please let Pastor Ethan or PJ know so that you can stay up to date.
