1 December 12, 2014 Why Should We Give Very Generously through the Lottie Moon Offering? The Lottie Moon Offering is our major annual giving effort for the work of International Missions. It s named for a missionary who began proclaiming Christ in China in the 1870s. Lottie Moon gave her life to the sacred effort of reaching the Chinese people with the gospel. She challenged Southern Baptists to give funds generously so that others could join the work overseas. Our church s Lottie Moon goal this year is $30,000. Why should we each give the most generous gift possible through the Lottie Moon offering? I ll give you three reasons. First, obedience to Christ demands it. Jesus said, All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations. For others to go, we must give the money to support them. Second, love for the lost demands it. Jesus said, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. If you were without the gospel, would you want goers and senders to work together to get the gospel to you? Love for the lost cannot do less. Third, desire for Christ s glory demands it. As 18 th century Moravian missionaries sailed away from their families who waved goodbye from shore, the missionaries called out: May the Lamb that was slain have the reward of His suffering! They wanted Jesus to receive glory for the salvation of those who would be saved by their witness. Do we desire to obey Christ? Do we love the lost? Do we desire for the Lord Jesus to receive glory for the salvation of many who have not yet received the gospel? Make the largest gift that you possibly can through the Lottie Moon offering in the coming weeks! Pastor Coye Still

2 Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International missions Our Goal: $30,000 Given to date: $5,746 We invite those ages to join us on Tuesday, December 16 from 6-10 pm at the OCC Distribution Center located at 7100 Forest Point Blvd, Charlotte. We will be sorting and packing the boxes. This event is limited to 20 people so first come first served. Please go sign up through the link on the church's website HERE. If you have questions see Emily Carter or her at Thanks! Backpack Blessings It is the season of giving and there are many opportunities to do so! Please continue to remember our year-long ministry of providing food to 20 Newell Elementary students on a weekly basis during the school year. Our cupboards are in need of stocking! We are in need of Beanie Weenies, Chef-Boyardee pastas, cheese crackers or goldfish, raisins, cereal bars, pudding cups and Oodles of Noodles. Monetary donations are also accepted.

Sunday, December 14, at 6:00 p.m. Presented by The Worship Ministries Team of University Hills David s Dynasty Sunday, December 21, at 6:00 p.m. Children s Worship Choir Christmas Eve Family Candlelight Worship Wednesday, December 24, at 6:00 p.m. The UHBC Family extends deepest sympathy to Kim, Robert, and Emily Waddington in the passing of their husband and father and our dear brother, William Barton Bill Waddington January 8, 1956 December 5, 2014 Bill and Kim became members of the UHBC Family February 5, 2012 and were active member of the Adult G Sunday School Class. They also were coordinators for our Backpack Blessings Ministry which partners with Newell Elementary School in our neighborhood. Bill had just packed and delivered the weekly 20 backpacks on Thursday before his untimely passing on Friday. We thank God for Bill's life and witness and pray for his family during this time of sorrow and loss.

5 UHBC Library News New DVDs are available in the University Hills Library. Please take a look! 1. Why Do We Call It Christmas? You know the Christmas story, but do you know the story of Christmas? Produced by Phil Vischer (of Veggie Tales), this animated film answers many questions, such as: Why is Christmas on December 25? Who was Saint Nicholas? Why do we put oranges and gold coins in stockings? Why do we have stockings as part of our Christmas observance? Who or what is "Emmanuel" and why do we want him to come? 2. Torchlighters Heroes of the Faith This is a set of 12 animated DVDs telling the stories of famous missionaries such as Jim Elliott, Corrie ten Boom, John Bunyan, Amy Carmichael, and Augustine among others. In addition to the animated portion, each DVD also includes a documentary on the life of the individual. Although the target audience is tweens and teens, I learned a lot by watching these videos. Suitable for ALL ages! 2015 Altar Flowers The new Flower Calendar for the coming year will soon be posted on the bulletin board across from the church office. If you see a date you would like to reserve for a particular Sunday, write your name by that date and then call Avery Phillips to make sure that date is still open.
