Count Your Blessings…name them one by one. Please add what you are thankful for to the bulletin board outside the Sunday School Office (downstairs). Let’s fill up the board with notes of thanks!

Mission Report:   We welcome missionary Stan Brown to our services today. He will be giving a mission report at 6 PM in the BFLC. Please plan on attending and bring a dessert to share.
 
A Baptism Service is planned for December 6 at 6 PM in the Sanctuary. If you are interested in being baptized, please talk to Pastor Dawes, or circle “B” on your connect card.
 
Good Samaritan Center is in desperate need of girls clothing, (sizes 4,5,6) Please drop off donations on Tues, Wed, or Thurs. Open

Please continue to pray for the Persecuted Church. To stay informed of current prayer needs, go to www.icommittopray.com.   Stay informed and pray for our missionaries by picking up letters in the chapel hallway. New ones are added weekly.

Stop by the ramp bulletin board or the Information Desk to pick up a flyer on the need for foster families in our community.
 
CHRISTMAS GIVING OPPORTUNITIES

As you prepare for Christmas, we want to let you know of several opportunities for giving through our church and community
so that you may participate in those you choose.

Our Christmas Offering this year will go toward an audio visual system upgrade to improve our worship services and radio transmission. Offering envelopes for this gift will be available in December.

Soon you will see our Christmas Tree of Love in the kitchen foyer. There will be suggested gifts on ornaments for families in our own church and community. Please let one of the pastors know if you know someone who could use a gift.
 

Many gifts will be needed to take on the Haiti Mission Trip (Dec. 28-July 5). A list of items and drop off spots will be available soon.

 Our November & December food donations are going to help with the community efforts to provide Christmas dinners for people in our community. We will also soon have information regarding the Danville Community Christmas Tree that will collect gifts for people in our community.

In December you will be given the opportunity to purchase poinsettias in memory or honor of a loved one.
