2 THE WITNESS NOVEMBER 2018 Sequels are always a challenge. Just ask Hollywood. Our first Halloween party was a wonderful experience for the church and the kids. It would be hard to repeat. So we did it better starting with an expanded crew of volunteers. They made each activity fun and special for every kid attending. Sherril Lewis started us off by providing Halloween bags & prizes. Mike & Carol Perry took charge of preparing the meal. Mark Sheehan served drinks. Sherry Henderson, Jane Sachs and their friend Tina handled tattoos (provided by Susan Gentry) and registration. Mike Gentry and Pastor Lydia took the pictures. Becky Hickok, Quentin Garrett, and Cindy Allen took care of the crafts. Nancy Reed stopped by to cut some leaves, as well. Kelly Barr brought her kids and got the party started. Michael handled the cake walk, and the two older girls, Auburn and Autumn took care of the Ring Toss and Bean Bag Throw. Karen Gibson and Jamie Butner along with a little help from James manned the Fishin Hole. Bud Barr helped out at the ping point table. All the candy that the congregation donated let us make sure that each child had a bag of treats to take home. And the number of kids participating actually grew a bit even though some of our regulars had other commitments that day. The main take away from both parties is that kids want more than candy out of trunks or buckets. They love playing with people who love them for who they are. Halloween III will remember that. Thanks Candy Sheehan for this report, and for coordinating this event! 2 Have you turned in your 2019 Giving Estimate? It s never too late, but sooner would help the Finance Team better plan next year s budget. Your gift counts! Please drop it in the offering plate or mail it to the church office. Hanging of the Greens, when we decorate our church for the Advent and Christmas season, will be Saturday, December 1, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Come help and enjoy the fellowship!

3 THE WITNESS NOVEMBER 2018 FROM THE PASTOR Let s Learn to Dwell in Hope Our neighbors preparations for Thanksgiving started early this year. Because our neighbors love the Halloween and Thanksgiving celebrations, they put lots of efforts and time with decorating their house something that Scott and I were never good at but needed to learn to experience the meaning of Thanksgiving in full. Last year, observing how our neighbors replaced the orange garlands with the white Christmas ones, I caught myself thinking how brief the season of Thanksgiving really is. Let s think of November as a particular season of gratitude. November begins with All Saints Sunday and ends with Christ the King Sunday. This month, we will be reminded that God dwells here and desires to be close to us, telling us of HOPE that is always there, even in the midst of mourning and pain. As we go from Sunday to Sunday this month, it s tempting because of the social and cultural pressure to slip into the coming Christmas mode, but wait and try to dwell in hope in this month that will take us to the season of Advent before Christmas. How can we slow down to sense hope? Breathe it in with the frosty morning air and find it in the multicolored leaves. Some of them are still up on the trees when more leaves are already under your feet covering the ground. This is how nature works. This is how our world is ordered: through dying, the new life will come. The leaves have to die first to come up again in the freshness of the spring. I know, many of us are facing the signs of aging and pain; some of us are losing relatives and friends. Let s hope and pray for the coming renewal of our lives and souls. Keep your eyes on the signs of change and slow down at the Thanksgiving table with family and friends to thank God for all that you have. Dwell in hope. With Thanksgiving Blessings, Pastor Lydia 3
