Special Offering: Today we are receiving a special offering for our Benevolence Fund. However, since our Benevolence Fund has been well-supplied by your generosity and since we ve had a number of significant repair needs around the church in recent months we will receive a special offering for our Building Fund instead. If you d like to participate in this offering and help us maintain our church home, please mark your gift Building Fund. Soup Ministry: Women in Mission will make soup for delivery to the homebound at 8:45 a.m. on Tuesday, October 31 in the fellowship hall. They are in need of rims for mason jars.

This school was chosen because it is in a less-populated area and, therefore, often receives less community support.
