News & Announcements for October 8, 2023

JOIN US FOR SUNDAY SCHOOL

If you’re looking for an opportunity to grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ, we encourage you to join us Sunday mornings for a intergenerational Sunday school class, from 9:00-10:00.  We look forward to seeing you!

 

MIDWEEK PRAYER – WEDNESDAYS @ Noon

Please join us on Wednesdays at noon for a time of prayer in the sanctuary as we bring our needs before our loving God.

 

NEW WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDY – Monday 10/9, 7pm @ Church

The Women’s Bible Study will begin on Monday, October 9th at 7:00pm at the church! We will be using the book, The Love Stories of the Bible Speak by Shannon Bream.  In this book, Shannon Bream draws lessons from the good, the bad, and the ugly of Biblical romances, friendships, and families. These insights into biblical relationships will uplift and encourage you and reveal new dimensions to the most central Christian duty: to love God and your neighbor.  Please come and bring a friend!

 

MISSION FOCUS FOR THE MONTH OF OCTOBER

Our focus for the month of October is Christmas Food Boxes. Peanut butter, canned meats, canned fruits, soups, and jelly or jam are always a good idea. We are also looking for packaged foods such as mac and cheese, pasta, and pancake mix. Spaghetti sauce and syrup are welcome too! When buying something for yourself, consider getting two and bringing one for this worthy mission. Donations can be placed in the receptacle in the narthex. Thank you for your support!

 

SAVE THE DATE! AUTUMN HARVEST PICNIC, Sunday, Nov. 5

Plan to gather with the NEPC church family on Sunday, November 5th at the Hendersons’ farm for an Autumn Harvest Picnic. More details coming soon.
