October 23, 2011

We continued our study of Hebrews, focusing on 4:1-13. The discussion revolved around receiving God's blessings and entering God's rest.

A few "housekeeping" items:
* We would like to send a Christmas package to our sponsored child, Foziya (we sponsor her through World Vision). We will need to send it soon in order for her to receive it close to Christmas. If you would like to include a small gift, some suggestions were pencils, bookmarks, and hair things. All items will need to fit in a large envelope. Please bring your gift to church next Sunday (October 30th). Melissa Waddell will be collecting the gifts.
* Pastor Appreciation Month is this month. We discussed giving gifts to our pastoral staff. If you would like to participate, give your money to Amy Storm next Sunday and she will pool our money to purchase something for each pastor.
* There will be no Sunday School next Sunday due to our youth pastor candidating weekend. There will be a question and answer time with Pastor Mike in the Sanctuary at that time.

Prayer Requests:
* Verity - not feeling well; prayer for healing and keeping the rest of the family healthy
* Pastor Mike Sourile - our youth pastor candidate
* Christmas musical - for things to go smoothly and for those helping to remember why they're doing it

We'll be back to finish chapter four of Hebrews in two weeks!
