We are looking for some additional members – sopranos, altos, tenors and basses would be warmly welcomed! Come join us on Sunday mornings for practice from 11:30 to 12:30. We meet in the choir loft as we prepare the cantata to be performed in December here at St Paul. Come join us as we raise our voices in joyous praise to our Lord and Savior. Hosannas forever!
THE SUNDAY SCHOOL CHILDREN will again be performing the Christmas Eve service this year. We ask that you e-mail Amber at ambersayler@hotmail.com or Kristi at kedfuntalk@hotmail.com to let them know if your child/children will be participating. We would like to know no later than the end of October so parts can be divided out accordingly and a practice schedule can be set up. Thank you! – B of Ed
THE BOARD OF ED will be showing a movie TODAY Sunday October 27th at 4:00 that is called 25 Hill. Plot- 12 year-old Trey Caldwell (Nathan Gamble) is shattered when his soldier father is killed in Afghanistan, leaving a hole in the boy’s life – and an unfinished Soap Box Derby car in the garage. A final gift from his dad, the car is a constant reminder of all that could have been. But when Trey meets Roy Gibbs (Corbin Bernsen), a grizzled Fire Chief devastated by the loss of his firefighter son on 9/11, a new relationship forms and old wounds finally begin to heal. As the unlikely team works to complete the Soap Box car and train for the upcoming Derby, they’ll learn that life isn’t about the starting line or checkered flag – it’s about having the courage to make the incredible journey of faith in between. Please join us, we will be serving popcorn.
QUARTERLY VOTERS’ MEETING NOTICE – Our Fall voters’ meeting will be held today in the Fellowship Hall right after the worship service.
PLAN TO ATTEND THE BAZAAR ON NOVEMBER 7TH FROM 10:30 A.M. TO 7:00 P.M. We will again have a Country Store, Stitchery/Craft Booth and the Lunch Counter. We still need a few volunteers to help us during the day and evening shifts, please let us know if you are willing to help either in the kitchen, waitress or as a cashier. Thanks to all of you that have volunteered to work and/or bring food, this is greatly appreciated. The food list and the work schedule are posted on the bulletin board in the fellowship hall and on the refrigerator in the kitchen.
BAZAAR SET-UP: We will be setting up for the Bazaar and cleaning the kitchen on Sunday, Nov. 3rd starting at 1 p.m. We would appreciate if you would come and help us with this project. Also, please check the kitchen to see if any of the containers, bowls, cake pans or pie plates are yours; we seem to have items that have been left from funerals or potlucks that need to be returned to their rightful owners. Thank you.
COOKBOOKS: We have heard a lot of great things about our church's wonderful cookbook. Unfortunately there is always a few mistakes with a project like this. We would like to keep track of any errors that you may come across that will affect the outcome of a recipe. There is an orange notebook on top of the microwave in the kitchen and we ask that you write down any errors that you may find. You may also want to double check on the recipe(s) you put in. Thanks for your help on this.
