Lord willing, Timothy, Bobbi, Lizzie and Steve will be making their Professions of Faith on Sunday morning, January 18.

May the Lord richly bless each of these individuals as they become part of our faith family, and may we all be a mutual blessing to each other in His name.

Grateful and thankful to all for remembering the widows, widowers, shut-ins and those in care facilities with Christmas cards this year. Also, the kids too! Thank you for all your prayers, encouragement and friendship. May the Lord bless you all in 2026!

Sanctity of Human Life Sunday is Sunday, January 19. This day is issued as a presidential proclamation by President Reagan on January 22nd, 1984, is used to bring awareness to the attacks that are daily waged against human life through the abortion industry. Please be in prayer for the women and men who seek help as well as those who are out on the front lines calling out to these people to turn toward God in their time of need.

Just a heads up for those who help serve in the “Sweet Treats” department! We did a little name change as to expand the options that you can bring for fellowship time! :) Please see the new “Fellowship Munchies” schedule either in your mailbox or on the bulletin board.
