From Pastor Roger…

This week we restart our 9:00am Worship Service. If you have come, or if you want to come, we have room because we’ve just doubled our capacity from 162 to 324. We are hoping to open up space for Brian McMahon to bring new people to the 11:15am service during his series. So, come on out to the 9:00am service beginning this Sabbath, October 17.

We hope you will come to hear Brian McMahon’s meeting on opening night, Sabbath, October 24. Yet, I’m hoping we have enough seats for potential guests. So – we need you to come – BUT we need you to be willing to give up your seat. If that happens, please plan to come back and support the newcomers by the 5th night or so. You will find Brian’s brochure below this message. Please pass it on to your friends. Please post it on your social media pages. Please share it A LOT!

The Bible studies are continuing to grow. Although we’ve had over 40 hits from the advertising, only about 11 have transferred to actual Bible studies. Please keep praying for them – and also for ourselves, for our community, for our nation!

I love being your pastor!

This has been a very strange and hard year. For everyone.
Your pastors are not immune. Yet they have worked hard to find new ways to continue leading this church during something none of us has ever experienced.

THIS MONTH, it’s our chance to say “Thank You” for all they have done, are doing, and will continue to do for our church family.

This is a SECOND READING for the following membership transfers IN to our church family.

Kerry, Carmen and Brandon Koronko from Meadow Glade
Jonathan, Holly, Joshua and Jaron Garbi from Tabernacle
