Five Next Steps
When you became a Christian, God gave you one or more special gifts or abilities that God wants you to use to serve Him and His church. The purpose of the spiritual gifts God gave you is to help the church grow stronger.
So the question for this week, as we think about the process of
maturing as a Christian, is....Am I using my God-given gifts to help my church?
This Week at Adventure
Upcoming Events
The Art of Worship
This fun event will be lead by Lynette and Genevieve from 11am-3pm on
Saturday, November 16
No cost other than to bring a dish to share for brunch; no children and no childcare available.

Join us for a creative time where we will be using devotionals, quotes, video clips and hands on experimentation to demonstrate how we can bring glory to God through the very creativity He gifted us with as a reflection of who He is.

Workshop #1 (11/16): "More than Music" is focused on drawing, painting, sculpture and multimedia art as a means of worship.
Thanksgiving Baskets
Be a blessing to others by contributing items for our Holiday food baskets. You can donate $90 (the cost of a basket) or non-perishable items. A list of needed items is available at the Welcome Center.

For more information: contact Marianne Rajan
Shoebox
Adventure of Faith is a local drop off center that collects shoeboxes from Kitsap county to send to them on for worldwide distribution.
Collection Week is Nov. 17-24
Operation Christmas Child
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan's Purse , an international Christian relief and evangelism organization headed by Franklin Graham. Since 1993 Operation Christmas Child has collected and delivered more than 168 million shoeboxes to children in over 160 countries and territories.

Shoebox gifts filled with school supplies, hygiene items, and fun toys are delivered to children in need around the world to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way.
Delivered into the hands of children through local churches, every shoebox gift is an opportunity to share about Jesus Christ.
