November 15, 2026 — Bulletin News

Weekly Bulletin

TODAY OUR CHURCH WILL HAVE A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING SERVICE filled with testimonies of thanksgiving from the people of the church. As you share, please keep these instructions in mind:

  • Focus on one of the ten topics listed on the back of the bulletin.
  • Please be succinct, allowing time for many others to share, too.
  • It will help if you speak loudly, clearly, and speak directly into the microphone.
  • Above all, be sure that what you share brings glory and thanks to God.

DURING TODAY'S WORSHIP SERVICE we will hear a word about serving the Lord in 2027. Last week we highlighted the role of deacons and introduced two new deacons who are serving at Hope Church. This Sunday we will give an overview of the role of elders in the church.

NEXT SUNDAY, November 22, will also feature thanksgiving testimonies. Please remember that next Sunday we will return the Thanksgiving Offering coin cans. Your best plan is to put the container in the car on Saturday evening so that it arrives at church the next morning. After church we will have an activity where the coins are counted and wrapped in rolls. The offering will be sent to World Missionary Press to support the publication of God's Word in many languages. For more information about World Missionary Press, go to wmpress.org.

LAST SUNDAY we announced the new winter semester schedule for Anchor Bible College. Twelve courses will be offered. A complete listing is posted on the display outside the college classroom. A detailed description of each class is available at the college website, anchorbiblecollege.org.

TWO WEEKS FROM TODAY, on Sunday, November 29, a child dedication service is scheduled during our Sunday worship.

LET'S GET READY FOR THE CHRISTMAS SING, which is planned for Friday, December 11. Supper at 6:00 pm, Songs of Praise at 7:00 pm. You may help in three ways. 1) Sign up with Lily Peterson for the food you will bring. 2) Invite a friend to come with you. 3) Come with a song in your heart.

ADD TO THE CALENDAR: The annual Intensive Bible Study for youth is scheduled for Thursday, January 7. 1:00–9:00 pm.
