Call Committee: Pastor Lohman has requested and was granted a two-week extension on making his decision regarding the Call to Advent. He will let us know by November 19 whether he will accept or return the Call. Please continue to pray for the Lohman family, their current congregation, and Advent.

Grounds Clean-up: We will be meeting tomorrow, Saturday, November 11 from 8:00 a.m. to Noon to clean up the church grounds. Lunch will be provided. Please join us as your schedule allows. If you have any questions, including what equipment may be needed, contact Paul Simis.

Bearing Fruit for Jesus: This year’s stewardship theme is Bearing Fruit for Jesus: His Grace and Power at Work Within You. Jesus said, “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit – fruit that will last.” (John 15:16) Fruit characterizes the life of the Christian steward. Christ living in us enables us to bear fruit. Join us Sunday as we continue to learn how to be faithful and fruitful stewards. Commitment Sunday will be November 19. Please return your Estimate of Giving for 2018 during worship that day.

PORCH collection for this month will be on Monday, November 13.
