Bulletin News
November 23, 2025
TODAY OUR CHURCH SERVICE will be filled with testimonies of thanksgiving to God. Please focus on one of the ten topics listed on the back of the bulletin. Try to be succinct, allowing time for many others to share, too. It will help if you speak loud and clear. Above all else, be sure that what you share gives glory and praise to God. "Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." (I Thessalonians 5:18)
DURING THE SERVICE we will bring the Thanksgiving offering containers to the front of the sanctuary. After church, you may help with an activity where the containers are opened and the coins are sorted and wrapped. The offering will be sent to World Missionary Press to support the publication of Bibles and evangelistic literature in about 360 languages. Learn more about World Missionary Press at www.wmpress.org.
THE PREACHING NEXT SUNDAY will be the first message in a series that focuses on the life of Joseph, starting in Genesis chapter 37.
