General Announcements

The world's largest Christmas project of its kind, Operation Christmas Child, uses gift-filled shoeboxes to demonstrate God's love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. We would love your help in filling shoe boxes to bless these children. Please pick up a box in the lobby this Sunday and return by November 24th. We have more boxes for those that did not get one last week.

Bless a Family is a ministry of Community Church to help those that are going through a rough time so that they can capture the love that God intended for us to celebrate each Christmas. If you know of a family that could benefit from this, please nominate them. You can pick up an application at the information desk at both locations. Applications due this Sunday, November 10th.

We are forming a team for the Poland 2020 Mission Trip.  There will be a Informational Meeting at Ryf Road THIS Sunday after second service.
