Dear Fourth Church,
Good morning. This month offers a special opportunity for our church body to come together and serve our neighbors in need: Saturday, October 15, is Mission DMV's Serve Day, when we'll work in teams with our local mission partners Central Union Mission, Samaritan Inns, Camp Bennett, and Rockville Women's Center. See below to choose your mission and register.
The following day, October 16, Dr. Robert Norris will share an update on the seminary in South Sudan. At the conclusion of the 11:00 a.m. service, stay for light refreshments and hear what God is doing at the seminary after 20 years of planning and prayer to enable classes to begin in January.
