Welcome

Thank you for joining us this morning!

We are so thankful you are here! 

We believe God has you here today for a reason!

Our prayer is that each one of us would hear God’s voice, be open to the Holy Spirit and transformed to live more like Jesus as we follow him into the world! May it be so!

FOR FAMILIES WORSHIPPING WITH US

This week is a Family Worship Sunday!

 

Children and their families will worship in the sanctuary together! We have Children’s Worship Bulletins and crayons available for both older and younger kids. They are full of activities and coloring space to help our young worshippers connect with this morning’s worship and message!

 

The nursery will be open for parents who want to sit with their kids during the service (we won’t have volunteers working in there this week.)

 

Most of all, we want you to know how glad we are to worship with you and your family today! You are welcome here!

Please Pray...

Please pray for Pastors Kory and Elda as they lead us!

 

Jolene Caldwell’s grandmother passed away - not very long after Bill Caldwell’s aunt Patty passed away. Pray for God’s comfort and peace for the whole family as they grieve. Please pray for healing for Bill’s back, as well!

 

Pastor John Kostelyk who is the pastor at Rudyard Christian Reformed Church. He is currently undergoing cancer treatment. Please pray for his healing and God's provision to help with increasing medical bills.

 

Pray for the people in the Southeast US who have been affected by the hurricanes Helene and Milton (including Penny and Louie!) Pray for God’s protection, and healing and strength and courage and peace for them. Praise God for his protection for Penny and Louie - Louie fell and got two black eyes, a goose-egg and a possible concussion – but they are otherwise okay, and their house wasn’t damaged!

 

Pray for Margaret Burrows’ cousins, -one sister with mental health issues went missing before the hurricane. The other sister and brother just learned that she had passed away early October after being struck by a car in late September.

 

Jack Heal has broken his shoulder playing football. Pray for quick healing for him, and good sleep at night!

 

Kory’s mom has passed away. Please pray for Kory and the extended family as they grieve together and deal with her estate.

 

Pray for healing, peace, rest and hope for Elda as she is dealing with continued chronic pain - and a difficult withdrawal from the medication she was on. Please pray for Rudy too, for the right job to be available for him!

 

Please pray for a friend of a church member who needs healing, sobriety, and strength.

Election Night Prayer
November 5, 2024
6:00pm-7:00pm

 

Plan to join us for a time of prayer as our country chooses our leaders. Go vote and come pray, or come pray and vote after. Either way, let's seek God together as we participate in these important decisions. We will not be praying that one candidate will win over another, but that God would help us to live faithfully as God's people, no matter who is elected! Stay for the whole hour or just come for a few minutes. May the world see Jesus in us!

Election Day

 WEDNESDAY NIGHT BIBLE STUDIES
 WEDNESDAYS - 6:00pm-7:00pm

Wednesday Night Bible studies will resume this week, September 11 from 6-7pm! We have groups for children, students and adults. Come and grow with us as we seek God in Scripture together. Everyone is welcome!

YOUTH

This Wednesday we will be celebrating out heritage as Americans and as followers of Christ. Be prepared to share about your heritage and culture!

NURSERY VOLUNTEER NEEDED

Would you be willing to serve one Sunday a month in our nursery as part of our volunteer team? This vital ministry is a great resource to the families of our church by providing a safe, loving environment for our youngest worshippers while mom, dad, grandma, grandpa worship in the sanctuary. We need one more volunteer who would be willing to serve in this way! If you are interested, please talk to Pastor Kory (koryheal@gmail.com)!

HARVEST POTLUCK LUNCH
November 17, 2024
After Service

Every November, we have a Harvest Potluck lunch and thank God for providing for another year! We encourage you to bring a dish to share

that includes something you harvested from your garden, from your latest hunting or fishing trip or even something you picked up at the grocery store. Mark your calendars and plan to join us right after the worship service for delicious food, great company with your church family and a wonderful time thanking God for taking care of all our needs! Hope you can make it!

IT’S ALL ABOUT JESUS! December 7 & 8, 6-8pm

Would you be willing to help tell the story of Jesus in an exciting and creative way? It's All About Jesus will be a guided hike through the woods with stops at various stations along the way where people will

experience the story of Jesus--his birth, death, resurrection and his return! There is a half-sheet in the bulletin with information on ways you can help (actors, narrators, greeters/parking lot workers, fire

starters, cookie bakers) and a postcard inviting you to the event! For more info, contact Abbey Skoglund at 616-550-7145. Let's be praying that God would use this awesome event!

 

ANGEL TREE

Details Coming Soon

Did you know that 1 in 49 children in the US has at least one parent who is incarcerated? This Christmas, New Horizons will be providing gifts to 20 area children who have an incarcerated parent! Would you be willing to help? Later this month, you will have the opportunity to choose a child to provide a gift for this Christmas (approx. $25). Be

praying about what God would have you do as we seek to tangibly share Christ's love with families in our area! Watch for more details to come.

But for now, start praying! Contact Pastor Kory (koryheal@gmail.com) with any questions!

LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO SERVE?

As we head into a new school year, there are several areas where you can use your gifts and talents to serve God and the church! Current areas where we are recruiting volunteers are: serving in the nursery, children's ministry, worship team, and the sound/computer team. Each ministry team serves on a monthly rotating basis so that no one person is doing it all. We’ll train and support you every step of the way!

 

We will have a Children's Ministry Volunteer meeting right after the morning worship service today. All those who are interested in serving our children this school year are encouraged to attend! If you would like more information about serving in one of these areas, you can attend the meeting or talk to Pastor Kory or Pastor Elda. You can also

email Pastor Kory at koryheal@gmail.com!

COMMUNITY GARDEN NEEDS
 

Our garden can use your love! We need newspaper for mulch; we have a bin in the lobby for any donations. We also need help watering our garden, especially this week! There will be a sign up sheet in the community board.
