10th Anniversary Celebration

It was a great joy to celebrate Pastor Bruce's 10th anniversary as our Senior Pastor! If you have not yet "autographed" the plaque we presented to Bruce and Katie, please stop by the Welcome Center and do so!

A Note from Pastor Bruce and family ~
We thank you for your kindness to us in last week's celebration of Bruce's ten years as Senior Pastor at EFCMM. Even though we see you each week, the receiving line was a sweet time to remember all that God has brought us through together over the years. We appreciate the flowers and personalized wall hanging, and we're looking forward to that little getaway, too. Our church family is one of God's greatest gifts to us, for which we are truly thankful!

Planning Ahead for Sunday and Beyond...

Sunday
We will follow our regular Sunday morning schedule (including Children's Choir). Youth group will NOT meet Sunday night.

Missions Festival Update
We stand in awe of God's gracious goodness to us; our special offering totals $34,034.50, well over our goal of $25,000! As a result of your generosity, we will be increasing the amount we send to missions. Our two featured missions ministries will each now receive $8,000! You may continue to give to this fund through the end of the year. Please put your gift in the "Missions" offering envelope or write "Missions Festival" on the memo line of your check.

Adult Advent Choir Rehearsal
Begins this Wednesday, November 28, 7:00 PM in the sanctuary. The choir will perform at our Candlelight Service on December 23.

Kids' Christmas Party Outreach
As part of the Mt. Morris Christmas on the Village Square celebration, we will host a Kids' Christmas Party on Saturday, December 1, from 10:00-11:15 AM in the Fellowship Hall. Our puppet team will perform, and there will be prizes and treats for all! Invitations are available at the Welcome Center for you to use to invite guests. You can also sign up to make/provide treats for the party.
