Announcements

If you like classical guitar music, check out the Hamburg Public Library on Friday evening.  The Hamburg Classical Guitar Quartet will be giving a concert on October 16th at 7:00 pm.  This is of special interest to us because this same quartet is scheduled to give an Advent concert of sacred/seasonal music here at FCC on Friday, December 4th.

Calendar
Tuesday, October 13th
Full Board meets at 7:00 pm at the church, preceded by Elders’ Meeting at 6:00.  Elders, come prepared to discuss Chapter 13 in Swetland (“Murder: When the Unthinkable Happens”) and the review questions that follow.

Wednesday, October 14th
Choir practice at 6:00 pm.

Join us for Bible study and prayer at the church at 7:00 pm.  In our survey of the great themes of Genesis, we’re looking at the covenant of circumcision in Chapter 17 – what it is, what it means, and who’s in it!  Plan now to join us for this fascinating study of the promises of God.

Saturday, October 17th
Sunday School Teacher meeting at 9:00 am.

Join our WNY/Northwestern PA churches at Fluvanna Community Church for this year’s annual CCCC Regional Fall Banquet.  The program is called “Living Out the Legacy” and will focus on the frontier ministry of John Spencer.  There will NO children’s program this year.  There will be no charge for the meal, but a special offering will be taken up to help cover the evening’s expenses.  The evening begins at 6:00 pm.  Reservation deadline is TODAY!  See the sign-up sheet in the foyer for details.

Sunday October 18th
It’s time for 3DYouth Group to start back up again!  We kick off the new year at First Church of Evans for life lessons from Mark, followed by games and refreshments.

Sunday, October 25th
Save the date!  It’s Singspiration time again – and our turn to host!  All the usual details to follow.


Get the most out of the service by asking about our special listening devices.

  Pick up one in the back or see an usher for help.  If yours isn’t working properly, don’t be bashful about raising your hand to ask for assistance.
