PARKING LOT MINISTRY
Thank you to the following guys for their service with the Tennessee Titans Parking this past Sunday, September, 25.  You guys are the best!! Next home game is Sunday, October 16 at 12:00pm.  Huge THANKS TO: David Blier, Tony Morton, Isaiah Morton , Eric Jans, Ken McKenzie, Greg Kubesh, Steve Schorner, Todd Chaplin, Conrad C'deBaca.

HAWAIIAN MISSIONARIES ERIC AND JOY PAUL CHANGING ROLES

Eric and Joy Paul are supported missionaries on the Big Island of Hawaii. They have sensed God calling them to plant a church in Holualoa, a small village 5 miles up the mountain from Kona. The church will be a creative mission with the goal to reach unchurched people, and serve the community by building relational bridges with the Hispanic community and between parent/student/teacher connections at the local elementary school. The Paul's continue to thank God for the support and prayers of the NFCN community.

 

Pastor Ulmet and Karen are away for a few days this week and he therefore has no blog.  He hopes to see you all Sunday and his blog returns next week!
