The congregation approved budgets for both M&O and Missions last February. Through early November expenses are under control and giving to both M&O and Missions is pretty much equal to last year. We rejoice in that.

While the giving trend is positive, remember that giving tends to be seasonal, with a substantial increase in giving needed in the last two months of the year to finish the year in balance for each of our budgets.

Each year more than one-quarter of the annual budgets are funded by gifts given in the month of December alone. This means that giving in December is typically four times the amount in the average prior month of the year. The accompanying chart shows the needed giving as we approach the end of the year. The most important thing to remember is that God loves a cheerful giver. May each of us give as we are led.

Please also remember that gifts intended for Missions must be designated or identified as such – so when you give to Missions please make sure to note that in the memo line whether online or on the check.

SUN, NOV 27 | 9:45 AM & 5:45 PM

SUNDAYS, NOV 20–FEB 19 | 9:45 AM

An in-depth study of Paul’s magisterial letter: Ephesians

The goal of the class is to expand our understanding of the nature of the salvation that Jesus has achieved for us and to discover how this letter can shape our identity of who we are in Christ and to each other as a community of God’s people.

The class will meet on Sundays at 9:45 am, starting on SUN, NOV 20, 2022 and ending on SUN, FEB 19, 2023. The class won’t be meeting on Christmas or New Years’ Day. Location will be announced soon.

How might your life be different if you knew your brain was fueled by joy? Please come and see how the ancient truths of Scripture are being acknowledged by modern science. Learn how we as a church can help each other experience more joy towards the Lord, toward each other and toward a world that is so in need of it. The joy of the Lord is indeed our strength!
