  • OPEN HOUSE/CARD SHOWER…An open house/card shower will be held for Rita Hayes’ 90th birthday on Saturday November 9th at 612 W Main from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 pm.  Let your presence be your gift. 
  • THANK YOU…Thank you to all who contributed to the benefit for Linda O’Dell.   You may still make contributions through the church. 
  • THANK YOU… Thanks to all of our church family for the cards, words of encouragement, and visits as John is healing from his two knee replacements.  Thanks to Pastor Lane and Pastor Brent for your visits and calls.  God is the great healer and we are blessed! 
  • VAN DRIVERS…Please be an unpaid servant of God by signing up to drive the van…3 drivers are still needed.  Also, please sign up to set up for snack time with Bonnie Crook or Merna Furney.   This mission cannot be accomplished without these two important and required components. 
  • THANKSGIVING BASKETS…The F.U.N. committee with God’s help will be heading up First church effort in handing out Thanksgiving Baskets to those in need in the community.  Last year through the generosity of the members of our Church we were able to help several Marion County residents at a cost of around $25 per basket. We hope that God would move you to give what you can afford to provide for one family or more.  For organizational purposes we need to raise the funds in the next 3 weeks so we can know how many families we can provide for and order supplies. We could also use volunteers to assist in the organizing and distributing the food baskets. Please let Heather know.  Helping Hands is our partner in this mission.  If you know of anyone or a family that might be in need of a Thanksgiving basket please let Heather know so we can add them to our list.
