IN YOUR PRAYERS this week please remember Myrna Huber (in rehab at
Oakview Terrace Nursing Home), the family of Richard Salis (who died in the
faith on Sept. 26th) during their time of mourning, Rev. Jastram and
his family as they prepare for mission work in Japan, those who are recovering
from surgery and illness, those in cancer treatment programs, our shut-in and
inactive members, and at least 2 family members or friends in your life who do
not yet know Christ.
Our guest pastor for Mission
Sunday today is Rev. Daniel Jastram. He is a newly called missionary preparing for
his move to Japan where his father served as a missionary. Rev. Jastram will also have a presentation
for us during the first part of our fellowship hour after our worship
service. Everyone is encouraged to stay
for our fellowship time and Rev. Jastram’s discussion session. We will be accepting freewill donations after
today’s worship service to help support his mission work.
THANK
YOU, REV. JASTRAM, for leading us in
worship today! We sincerely appreciate
your Christian service to our Lord, to His Church and to our congregation!
