Get the most out of the service by asking about our special listening devises.
Pick up one in the back or see an usher for help.  If yours isn’t working property, don’t be bashful about raising your hand to ask for assistance.

This morning, we welcome Rasheed Akhtar back to North Collins.  Mr. Akhtar is currently serving as ISI’s South Asia Campus Minister.  His testimony and ministry among international students bears powerful witness to God’s work in his life. Let’s give him our full attention as he brings a message from God’s word.

Announcements

The Church Board has approved the installation of a commemorative window to mark our church’s bicentennial in June 2017.  The projected cost is $5,000.  If you are interested in being part of this project, make your contribution out to The First Congregational Church and designate them “Bicentennial Window”.


The Yoders return to North Collins tomorrow after their family vacation in Michigan.  Keep praying for the Yoders as Katie packs up and moves back to Geneva College in Pennsylvania the end of this week and Rebekah heads off to Calvin College in Michigan later this month.
