- I am excited about the progress our ministry is making each week. We are busy moving step by step forward. We have been continuing to move forward with sorting all off the stuff accumulated over the last 20 years. It is good to be making progress on that.

- Our Monthly Memory Verse(s) for November is a reminder to set our hope in the Lord. It also aligns with our new sermon series for November. “For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.” 1 Timothy 4:10 ESV I strongly encourage you to develop a system for memorizing Scripture. It could be using 3×5 cards or even an app. Let me encourage you to check out the Bible Memory App. (IOS and Android)
- This Sunday we will kick off our new sermon series for November on Intentionality. This Sunday we will be looking at God’s Plan for Living Hope as we move forward to serve Him in our community. I appreciate all the prayers as we prepare for our time in the Word this Sunday. Your prayers are making a huge difference. Thank You taking the time to pray.
