Thanksgiving Food Basket Items Due Today
The Salvation Army has provided us with two families to bless with food this Thanksgiving and Christmas. Items are due today, as we will be delivering the baskets this week. If you forgot to bring your items, please speak with Deacon Debby. Money may be donated for perishable items, if you would like to contribute in that way. About $100 is needed.
Pledge Cards Due Next Sunday
Please be praying about what you will give in the coming year. Your pledge cards are in your mail folder. Plan to return them on November 22, Christ the King Sunday. Also, consider giving an extra donation before the end of the year to cover church expenses. We are currently spending more than we have been given.
