What's Up?

Each week we will highlight an activity of our ministry – maybe a meeting, Bible study, social event, mission event, etc. With this spot we hope to keep you better informed as to “what’s up” in our mission and ministry! Let us know how it’s working or if you have any ideas!

+On the back tables is an Advent Gift from one of our seminaries, Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana. It is a beautiful and multi-folded card and bookmark for your use. Thank you to Paul & Nancy Hahn for supplying this gift!

+ This last week the ComfortCare Women’s Health Board voted for Pastor Tim to serve as the chairman. In taking on this responsibility he has resigned as the chairman for the Southeastern District Conference Planning Committee. As we continue our partnership with this critical ministry of our communities please keep ComfortCare in your prayers!

+Thanks to our Social Outreach Ministry we were able to provide a Thanksgiving meal to a needy family in our community and provided housing for a mother and two children for the night at a local hotel this week!

+ our Servant Leadership Council met this last week and is glad to report that it was unanimously approved to hire “Building God’s Way” for the next phase of construction design and building in our relocation process! Over the next months we will simultaneously be working through our Momentum Campaign in which the financial blessings and sacrifices needed to relocate will be pledged, and, working on the finalization of the design of our new building. Thank you for your continued prayers as we seek to follow the LORD in this process and live in the peace of His Spirit among us!
