GO FOR THE GOLD!
Congratulations to everyone who updated their contact information and photos in the Member Portal. This gold ribbon is for you! Join them as we prepare this valuable tool for our new pastor :)
If you’re experiencing glitches or simply prefer an assist, help will be available Sunday after service—or you can reach out to Jenny and Donna in the church office.
MARK YOUR CALENDAR We need YOU to participate in our Pastoral candidate process
After service on Sunday, December 5th, a congregational meeting will be held. Compensation for our new pastor will be the business at hand, and a 15% quorum must be in attendance to qualify our vote.
Please make this event a priority, in support of and appreciation for all our Pastoral Search Committee and Council have done to get us this far in this very exciting process!

NOVEMBER S.O.S RECIPIENT
WATER WELLS FOR RURAL CAMBODIANS LOTM has generously supported the access to clean, safe water in yards of Cambodian families throughout the years. In fact, 38 water pump wells have been drilled to date! As you can see, one well serves more than one family - the well in the yard of this family of 4 is shared with 18 other neighbors.
Now more than ever, with the COVID lockdown, these subsistence farmers need our assistance. To designate your giving to this outstanding resource, be sure to identify ‘November SOS’ or ‘Cambodian Wells’ on your check / electronic transaction.
Digital donations can be madehere.
