Men's Ministry
We sharpen each other This Thursday, Men's Brotherhood meets for the second session of our spring series, "Present" – Being the Man You're Actually Called to Be. Last week's conversation about emotional availability in friendships and marriage hit harder than most of us expected. Several guys stayed an extra hour just to keep talking, and the conversation has continued throughout the week. That's what belonging to this group is all about. This week we're opening up Proverbs 27:17, "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." We'll be asking honestly: who is sharpening you right now? And who are you sharpening? These aren't easy questions for men who've been taught to go it alone, but they're the right ones. Deuteronomy 33:23 (KJV)“As thy days are, so shall thy strength be”. Volunteer need: We're looking for two or three men with construction or handyman skills to join our rotating Home Help crew, which serves elderly and single-parent households in our surrounding community once a month.Sign Up Here Upcoming: NA

SIS Ministry (Sisters in Service)
Will we be found faithful? We are in the heart of our spring Bible study series, "Rooted," and week 6 through the book of Ruth does not disappoint. This Tuesday, we're sitting with Ruth 2 – the moment Boaz notices Ruth gleaning in the fields and says, "I've been told all about what you have done." Her faithfulness was seen, even when she thought no one was watching. There is so much in that for us. New faces are always welcome. Bring your friend or family member. Printed study guides are available at the door, and you can jump in at any point in the series. Many women have joined mid-series and said they wished they'd come sooner. If you've been on the fence, Tuesday is your week. Hebrews 13:16 (KJV) “ And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.” Upcoming: Ladies Blessing Brunch – Saturday, Nov 7th, 10:00 AM in the Fellowship Hall.

Kids Ministry Update
AWANA Wednesdays!! Our Sunday Kids Church curriculum this month is walking through the Fruits of the Spirit. We’re talking about courage, failure, grace, and restoration. Big themes, told in ways that actually land for a 6-year-old. Parents, ask your kids about it on the drive home! This week's lesson focuses on 1 Samuel 16:7, "The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart." We're teaching our kids early that they are seen and valued for exactly who they are. We also want to spotlight one of our incredible kiddos. Lacey accepted Jesus, as her lord and savior this month. 🙏 Let rejoice together and give thanks to our God. Thank you. Is God calling you to take your next step? Coming up: Children's Christmas Play practice

Student Ministry Update
It’s been a week. Middle schoolers, high schoolers – we SEE you. This has been a heavy week for a lot of our students, and Youth Group on Friday is going to be a safe, low-pressure space to breathe, laugh, and talk about real stuff. We'll have food, we'll have some genuinely terrible icebreaker games, and we'll have real conversation. Want to talk to someone before we meet? We’re here. This months topic is "Being Ambassadors For Christ” Representing Jesus in a World That Needs Him ✝️ 🌎 Series Theme: We are called to represent Jesus Christ in our everyday lives. Our words, actions, attitudes, and love should point others toward Him. Being an ambassador for Christ means carrying His message of reconciliation to a world that needs the hope of the Gospel. Key Verse for the Series: 2 Corinthians 5:20 (KJV) “Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.” Series Goal: To help believers understand what it means to be ambassadors for Christ, share the Gospel confidently, live out their faith, and become a positive influence for Jesus in their homes, churches, workplaces, and communities. If you could represent any organization, team, or person in the world, who would you choose and why? What would you want people to know about the person or organization you represent?
