THIS MORNING MARKS THE END of Daylight Saving Time. Clocks "fell back" one hour, so that today's worship service begins at 10:00 am Standard Time.  

 

THE LORD'S SUPPER will be served during our worship today. Everyone who knows Jesus as Savior is invited to participate in taking communion. 

 

THE PREACHING TODAY is the second message in a series about "Worship and Thanksgiving." Today we will learn about characteristics of worship found in the New Testament, where we see worship of Jesus, worship in the church, and worship in heaven. 

 

TODAY IS DESIGNATED AS THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER FOR THE PERSECUTED CHURCH. This is a solemn day of prayer in an age when violence against Christians is increasing. Here's what we plan for this morning:

    * Children will be dismissed to Sunday School before the conclusion of the service.

    * We will hear about violence against Christians in multiple countries. Then we will pray. 

    * After the service we will have further prayer on the same subject in the chapel. 

 

THIS FRIDAY, November 7, the Steadfast Seniors will meet at 12:30 pm for a beautiful lunch and time of Christian fellowship. 

 

IN OCTOBER WE DISTRIBUTED coin containers for our annual Thanksgiving offering. The Containers will be returned to church three weeks from now on the Sunday before Thanksgiving. The funds will be sent, as our church's Thanksgiving offering to God, to World Missionary Press to support the publication of Bibles and evangelistic Scripture booklets in more than 350 languages. 

 

FOR TWO SUNDAYS IN NOVEMBER, we will have special Thanksgiving services. Members of our congregation will share testimonies of thanksgiving on Sunday, November 16 and Sunday, November 23. 

 

LAST SUNDAY WE ANNOUNCED THE BIRTH of Mercedes Lynn Hunt, daughter of Aaron and Sarah Hunt. She was born a week ago on Saturday, October 25. Baby Mercedes weighed 7 lb, 15 oz and measured 20 inches. To bring a meal to the family, contact Rachel Manwiller, 734-730-9521.
