BARB & STAR LIVE!

Join us on October 17th, live and in-person, for the Barb & Star Telethon, Variety Show & Pie Auction! Immediately following our 10:30am Unified Service, we invite you to join us for a free BBQ lunch on the Friendship Plaza!
Then, we'll head back into Brown Auditorium and watch as Barb & Star, alongside some special guests, will perform to raise money to send our kids and teens to camp. You won't want to miss this one-of-a-kind camp fundraising event. We'll see you there!

This month, SDFC Young Adults is inviting the young adults in our community to join us for a movie screening & discussion of Disney/Pixar's "Coco"!

SOCK DRIVE
To benefit Loaves & Fishes in O.B.
Over the next few weeks, we'll be collecting new and unused socks that will be donated to Loaves & Fishes, a pantry in O.B. that serves the area's homeless and low-income communities. The demand for socks, as well as new or lightly-used shoes, increases significantly during this time of year.
We invite you to bring any new or unused socks you can provide with you to church this Sunday, and drop them off in the marked basket that will be in the foyer of both of our worship spaces!
Thank you!

Cards and notes of appreciation are encouraged. They may be sent to the church address:
3901 Lomaland Drive

Or directly to our pastors' email addresses:
Thank you for your participation!
Sincerely,
Your Church Board
