Saturday

Give thanks in all circumstances,

for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

~1 Thessalonians 5:18~

 

Mrs. Frieda Jones got some lab reports back.  They are good.  There is one more lab report, but it will be about two weeks in the process.  Please pray for Frieda as she heals.

Barbara Forshag has shingles despite having had the shot.  Pray the shot at least lessons the pain and duration somewhat.

Barbara Hurchinson is doing very well now.  Thanks for praying for her.

Women’s Ministry

• The will be NO BIBLE STUDY the day after Thanksgiving.  We will complete our study of Women of the Bible the following week with a study of the “Widow with Two Coins”.  You may want to read Mark 12:41-44 and Luke 21:1-4.  I also have a study guide if you want one.  Just ask.
• Tuesday, before Thanksgiving, we will have the monthly “Young” Ladies’ Birthday Party at The Cafe at 11 A.M.
• We will be collecting stamps for Christmas cards for parish prisoners until Sunday, November 29th.

 

 

The Community Thanksgiving service will be at FBC, Kentwood Sunday evening.

 

FBC, Kentwood is collecting items for the residents for Kentwood Manor.  Contact the church office, 229-8111, to learn what is still needed.

 

Thankfulness: Day 21 – Today, I’m thankful for the IMB, International Mission Board for providing for missionaries who tell unreached people about Jesus all around the world.  Beginning November 29th, we will celebrate the annual Lottie Moon Week of Pray for International Missions.  Lottie was a missionary to China and helped raise awareness in churches here so more funds would be given to support more missionaries.  She was very effective in doing so.

 

Have a blessed Saturday.  

Be a blessing to someone today.

Thank-you for reading and praying today.
