Crisis Control Ministry
Dear Friends,
The year 2019 is quickly passing by. Up to now, you have prepared approximately 270 breakfasts, 270 lunches and 270 suppers for your family. However, one day you open your cupboard and the shelves are bare! If only... Here folks, is where Crisis Control Ministry can help those in need. With the items you cheerfully bring each month, Crisis Control can fill those shelves. October has been designated as BOXED DINNER month. This can include Hamburger Helper, macaroni and cheese, etc-anything made from a box. Help fill those cupboards! You will be blessed.

2020 Pledge Cards
My fellow Christians,
We have come far this year 2019 and accomplished many things. Our year is not over yet. One of our positive happenings was calling Rev. David Harrison to guide and lead us. At a congregation meeting in July, we voted to extend his call to full-time. With this action, we all agreed to remember our promise come budget time.
A few years ago, I had the privilege to join others on mission trips to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. We were lead by Rev. Vance Moore who gathered us for a time after supper and we talked about our day. He always began with the question "Where did you see God today?" Everyone thought a few minutes and quickly joined the group with their responses. Every time I enter our church, I look around and see God everywhere.
I'm sure he is with our minister and his staff as they go about doing whatever we ask. I know he is in attendance at the AA meetings that gather in our building Monday through Saturday. I'm sure Kaitlin Mundy sees his presence in Palooza as she goes about her week. The Leadership Council certainly knows his presence is near as they make decisions.
We have accomplished much this year and God's guidance has surely been felt. Your 2020 Pledge Card is enclosed. Please let God's presence in your life be a guiding hand when you make your commitment. Please return your completed Pledge Card to the
Church by November 10
th
.
As always, you will be blessed.
Yours in Christ
Becky Minnix
Moderator 2019
P.S. There is a "pay online" option to give your pledge
On the home page, under recent posts you will see the 2020 Pledge link where you can download the document to print and fill it out to bring to the church. That link is a PDF file.
Another option is on the home page as well.
You can scroll down until you see the big rectangle green block "Give now with Givelify."
Then select your donation amount and lastly select the Pledge option.

Hello all and Happy October,
Thanks to everyone who supported our youth's fundraiser lunch during the Fall Craft Fair. We appreciate your
continued prayers for this great group of students! During the month of October, we will study the Four W's of Worship: With whom do we worship? What does worship look like? Where can we worship? And finally, Why do we worship? We will use passages from the Psalms, Ecclesiastes and
Lamentations as our guides on this journey.
The youth group will also help lead Trunk-or-Treat on Wednesday October 30th at 6 p.m. If you would like to decorate a "trunk" for Trunk-or-Treat, please let Kaitlin or Pastor David know!
Peace,
Kaitlin

PINC
To those interested in renewing our PINC (Partners In Christ) meetings, please respond in an e-Mail.
In your answer, please relate the following answers:
-
Your level of interest
-
Evenings that you
Cannot
meet
-
Types of activities that interest you
Our goal is to meet together and get to know each other in a more personal way. In sharing various activities, I think we accomplish that in a very Christ-like way.
In the past in addition to opening devotionals (when appropriate) we have performed several service projects - Valentine and Easter Baskets for seniors, Preparation of eggs for our Easter egg hunt,and help with fund-raising projects of the church.
In addition we have prepared items for sale to raise funds and had sale of donated items.
We have also participated in fun activities such as movies, bowling, art and wine parties, and dinners out. We also had interesting speakers for our meetings as well as instructors for arts and crafts projects.
Your response to this message is important in deciding the future of PINC.
