Minister’s Corner
Shalom aleikhem! שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיכֶם Peace be upon you!
A good new month to you as we step today in this last month of 2024. This is the month when most look expectantly to the new year and yet they go through the year that has passed within their minds and weigh its worth. Have we accomplished all we wanted or hoped to accomplish? HOPE, funny word that is. We all hope of things. For some hope is silent and patient expectation. For others, hope, is action, working full heartedly toward the goal they hope to achieve. As we start advent today, we light the first candle, incidentally, the candle of HOPE. How do you hope when it comes to Jesus? He is coming, someday, but until then, what? As another year passes without His return does our hope change? Or, is it deeper?
This Wednesday – December 4th – Fellowship Dinner & Mid-Week Bible Study
From 6:00PM we will get together for our fellowship dinner. This is a BYOD (Bring Your Own Dinner) type of event. It’s our family time of getting to fellowship and “take a load off.”
From 7:00PM we will have a bible study led by Manu.
Birthdays this week: Jeremy Parent (5th)
Bible Break – Ladies Bible Study – Tuesday 10:00AM
Every Tuesday morning, a group of ladies from different congregations joins a group of our ladies for a Bible class. Currently studying Romans. Please invite any of the ladies you know.
Zoom Bible Reading – Monday & Thursday from 7:15PM
Please plan to join our Bible Reading group. This session they will be reading through the New Testament. You can use the same Zoom link as you use to join the services on Sunday morning.
Church of Christ Care Center – December 1st – TODAY – 2PM.
Please come and love on the seniors at the Church of Christ Care Center today as our congregation has the responsibility of leading the worship service for these folks. Meet there at 1:50PM so we can greet them and allow Christ to show them some love through us.
