This Sunday we begin our Week of Prayer for International Missions. You will have a prayer guide in your bulletin and we will spend time in the service praying for our missionaries.
Then on Sunday, December 6 at 5:30 we will have our annual church-wide Christmas and Mission dinner in the fellowship hall. The church will provide the meat and you are asked to bring dishes and desserts to go with ham.
I am speaking that night on what has been happening with the International Mission Board and the recent retirement of 600-800 missionaries. Then we will give you an opportunity to give to the Lottie Moon Christmas offering that night. But of course you have the entire month of December to give. Let me challenge you not to give anyone a Christmas gift of greater value than you give to Jesus through the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering.
Bring a new, unwrapped toy for the Rainsville Christmas Charities. There will be inflatables for the kids to enjoy.
We are in need of van drivers and substitutes. The vans can not operate without two adults, resulting in some children not being picked up. Contact Butch Culpepper if you can help.
Make-up Upward Basketball Evaluations will be Thursday, December 3 from 5:00-6:30 in the gym.
Donations for Crossville Nursing Home can be brought to put in the box in the foyer by December 2.
You are invited to help decorate the church for Christmas beginning this Sunday at 3:00. Due to the length of this project, there is no Sunday night service this Sunday.
I begin a new series of messages this Sunday "Look Who Came for Christmas" based out of the Gospel of Luke.
Mark it on your calendar....CHRISTMAS EVE SERVICE from 5:30-6:00. Plan to be apart of this special service at this special time of the year.
