Announcements & Events Benevolence– Ministry Leader, Kevin Ross (kevindanaross@gmail.com) Our church pantry needs: Corn, green beans, green peas, carrots, canned potatoes, small jars of peanut butter, jelly, canned ravioli, all kinds of canned fruit, cereal, mayo, mustard & bar-b-q sauce, all kinds of soup, chili, crackers. Next Sunday, November 15th, is the last Love Offering for 2015- You have been very generous this year as we have funded our work at Eustis Heights Elementary, mission work in the Ukraine and Cuba, and set aside some savings for a new sign. This Love Offering is designated for debt reduction. The room you are sitting in right now was part of the renovation and expansion of the original building. We are getting pretty full right now, so just imagine if this hadn’t been done. It might be that we wouldn’t have grown as we have. Please pray about what part you are going to take in the Love Offering next week. Every cent above the weekly budget amount will go directly to the mortgage balance saving us lots of money in interest. Together we can be a debt free church, and that means we can have more resources available to fulfill our mission to introduce lost people to Jesus. Local Evangelism– Ministry leader, Phil Barnes (philbarnes@reagan.com) Our next Feeding Body & Soul will be Wednesday night, December 2nd. If you have any questions, please see Denita Snider or Mike & Karen Cockrell. Our next Eustis Heights Elementary School Family Night is Thursday evening, November 12th. We will start at 4:30 P.M. and will be finished about 6 P.M. If you have never joined in on the fun consider coming out. This is an important part of our strategy to reach into our community with the love of Christ. If you have any questions please see Phil Barnes or Julie Chivleatto. PLEASE NOTE THE DATE AND TIME CHANGE OF OUR NEXT MOBILE FOOD PANTRY: Our next Mobile Food Pantry is Saturday, November 21, 2015. This is a change from the normal day since our traditional 4th Saturday falls after Thanksgiving. The time has changed too. We will serve a soup and sandwich lunch starting at 11:30 A.M. The food will arrive at 12:30 P.M. and we will set up and begin to welcome our guest at 1:00 P.M. until 3:00 P.M. Also there is a turkey giveaway going on at the same time so we will need some additional help. WE WILL NEED YOU!
