Budgets for 2015
The Finance Committee is beginning to work on the church budget for
2015. Each committee chairman will receive information concerning
the budget process and you are asked to meet and submit your budget
proposal by November 5.

OUR CONDOLENCES TO:
Michelle & Jeff Baxley and family in the death of her grandmother,
Sara Jane McMasters of Virginia Beach, VA.
THE CONTEEMPORARY SERVICE WILL BEGIN,
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9. The 9AM service will replace the 8:30
service. The Contemporary service will be held in the Youth
Building and is open to all who would come and worship. What a
great time to make new beginnings and new relationships, as well
as, renewing old ones. This service will need many volunteers to do
everything from usher to nursery, from offering to praise team.
Give me or Jeff a call if you are willing to serve.

LADIES, leadership is needed in the area of coordinating the
TABLES of LOVE event this spring. This is one of the highlights
of the year and is an excellent outreach/fellowship time for ladies.
Do you feel led to lead? Call the church office and lets get started
on another great time of blessing.

DISCIPLESHIP TRAINING is on my heart and mind. Alan
Folsom brought a wealth of information to us last Sunday evening
reminding us of the need and mandate to make disciples. Dr. Ernest
Purcell has agreed to head our Discipleship Ministry and now is the
time for us to get serious about our spiritual growth. Pray for,
encourage and participate in Discipleship Training.

NEED A SHOEBOX? We will have the gathering of the shoe
boxes for Operation Christmas Child on November 9. Shoe boxes
and list of supplies are available outside the Fellowship Hall. It is
not too late to join in the excitement and blessing of this ministry.
Just think of the smile on a childs face as they receive a shoe box in
the name of Jesus. Fill a box and help share His love.

I look forward to seeing you this Sunday.


Paul

up for our youth ministry. Be sure to check out our publications to
make sure you are not mission anything!!

Join us for 640 worship service on Wednesday nights! We get to

does not attend a church and bring them with you. Supper will be
served each Wednesday at 6:00

Lord. Our students have some great opportunities on Sunday

be a Do Something event. We will meet at the church at 5:00 on
