Tonight Joseph Janga will be a guest at Confirmation. Joseph is a Christian pastor, youth director, evangelist and church planter, born in India. He has spoken in our church before. The Confirmation class is studying worldviews and Joseph will be bringing his knowledge of eastern and Middle Eastern religions to the class. Tonight at 5:00 pm he will speak about Hinduism and next Sunday about Islam and Buddhism. Anyone who is interested is welcome to attend these two special sessions.
Our Annual Meeting is coming up on January 17. We will have a potluck after church on that day with the meeting afterward. Annual Reports from Ministry Team Leaders are due on January 3, so the reports may be ready on January 10. Reports may be given to our Church Chairperson, Jackie Swedeen. Missions: We will be sending over $260 to Covenant World Relief this year. With this amount we are helping 6 or 7 families get an animal (goat, sheep), giving them a good start to 2016! Coming in January, KICY $1 Giving Sunday. KICY is receiving thank you letters for their transmissions that reach over Russia to Belarus. Our continuing support is greatly appreciated by KICY. Interested in sharing God’s Gift this Christmas season, let’s go caroling!
