ANNOUNCEMENTS
Congratulations go out to
Sara (Clapper) and Joel Mason on the safe arrival of Noah Thomas, their third
child. He was born on Wednesday
afternoon. Both Sara and the baby are
doing well. (FYI – he weighed 9 lbs. and
measured 23 inches.)
Onward in October 2013 … and in coming months! Our Sunday
School teachers invite you to come to Sunday School every week at 9:30. October is a great time to remember good
study habits: be on time for class, bring
your Bible and offering to
class, and bring a friend to class
as we learn together. Let’s make a
renewed effort to learn and apply our Bibles at Sunday School, with Pre-School
through Adult classes available!
ISI Fredonia has an immediate
need for host families for 4 new students who want to see life in an American
home. Contact Harriett Rupp for details
of this opportunity for service.
Next Sunday we will celebrate
the Lord’s Supper. If you would like to
participate but are unable to be here, see Derek or one of the Elders to
arrange another time. Don’t be shy about
taking full advantage of this important gesture of unity with Christ and his
body. A fellowship meal following the
service is NOT planned for next week, due to our Singspiration! plans later in
the evening.
CALENDAR
Wednesday, October 30th
Choir practice at the church
at 6:00 pm.
Join us at the church for
Bible study and prayer at 7:00 pm. We’re
studying the Old Testament prophets – their ministries, their message, and their madness! We’re finishing up the book of Amos and
getting ready to start Zephaniah. It’s a great time to join us!
NEXT Sunday, November 3rd
Plan now to join Jim Raub and
our friends from area churches at 6:30 pm as we host our annual Fall
Singspiration, a seasonal favorite for many.
Sunday, November 10th
3DYouth Group meets at the
First Church of Evans at 6:00 pm for our first study in the gospel of Mark
followed by football training camp and refreshments. Don’t forget!
The Chili Bowl, our annual youth football game against MPB, is scheduled
for the following week (Nov. 17th).
Hit the gym, kids!
