A huge THANK YOU to everyone who participated in Trunk or Treat! Together, 135 volunteers served over 44,000 pieces of candy to our guests last weekend. The weather required us to bring everything indoors, and everyone pitched in to make it a success. Thank you for donating, serving, and praying as we reached out to our neighbors with the love of Christ. God is so good! "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."
Colossians 3:17
Don't forget to bring your Engagement Journal to worship each Sunday through November 20. If you need a Journal you may pick one up Sunday.
