LOTTIE MOON MISSION OFFERING GOAL UPDATE

                              The Bell Tree When our children come down for Pastor’s Pals they will be placing jingle bells on this tree. Each bell represents $100 given to the offering.

                              The Offering Goal has been surpassed!!! Our new total given to international missions is $4,265.90. Praise the Lord!!!

MACEDONIAN CALL FOUNDATION God blessed us with two presents during the week of Christmas. A precious couple from the East Cooper Church in Mt. Pleasant donated a beautiful low-mileage1998 Buick LaSabre to the ministry. On the very same day a gentleman from NC, whose brother, a missionary in Brazil, has used our ministry, called to say that he was donating a 1995 Chevy Lumina to the ministry. This will bring our fleet back to twenty vehicles.

 Men’s Conference Our bus will be going to the 17th Annual Men’s Conference at FBC Woodstock February 6-7. Cost includes the conference fee, a steak dinner, and motel. This is a great conference which draws around 5,000 men. There is a sign-up list at the information center.

 C.A.R.E. MINISTRY ADJUSTMENT We are asking members to sign up for 6 months for our Spring/Summer session of CARE teams. Won’t you consider giving just one hour a month (that’s only 6 hours) to either write letters and cards or call or visit our members and community friends? We are conducting CARE on a new night, Thursday, but at the same time, 7 PM, and beginning on January 11 with the C and A teams. Contact Ricardo if you would like to serve.

 Conversational Spanish Class  We will be conducting a “Conversational Spanish Class for Ministry” starting later this month.  Please sign up at the Information Center or contact Ricardo.  Tuesday Evening or Sunday at 5:00 PM are best for me.  Let me know your preference for day and time.  Even if you cannot attend, I’ll try to have work for home learning available.

Offering Envelopes for 2009 are in the Fellowship Hall in alphabetical order.  Please pick your box up today.  Anyone who previously had a number over 200 has been assigned a new number.  Please discard envelopes with your old numbers on them.

 

READ THE BIBLE THROUGH in 2009!  Your Bible reading guides are at the information center.  Please pick one up and read your Bible through next year.
