Thanks to all who participated in Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Ministry. Our goal was to provide 30 boxes and we exceeded that goal by one! Your generosity will help to brighten the lives of children around the world and share with them the love of Christ.
You ca still Build a Box Online – This year you can participate in Operation Christmas Child without leaving the comfort and safety of your own home by building a shoebox online! Simply go to www.samaritanspurse.org and you can select items for your box. You will be asked for a $25 donation to cover the cost of the items, which you will need to pay online. If you choose to contribute in this way, please let Kim Albert know by sending a quick text (579-5011) or e-mail (kalbert@ntelos.net) so we can get an accurate count of boxes donated from our church.
On November 22 immediately following the 10:30 worship service, we will hold a congregational meeting to elect new officers to the Class of 2023 and to present the 2021 budget.
This Sunday we will be celebrating the Lord’s Supper for the first time since the pandemic changed how we gather to worship together. It is appropriate that we choose World Communion Sunday to join with Christians around the world to share in this sacrament.
We have purchased prepackaged communion cups. Each person should plan to pick up a cup as they enter the Sanctuary. When it is time to open and partake of communion you will be directed to open them.
