ANNOUNCEMENTS: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 4

Sermon Details: This week Pastor Joy is preaching from Mark 14:22-31 on "Jesus and His Grace." You can view the sermon points and take notes using the YouVersion Bible App.

Sunday Morning Prayer: We will be starting our Sunday morning prayer time again each week, beginning on Sunday, October 4. We will meet at 8:00am in the Chapel to pray as a church for about 30 minutes.

Weekly Evening Prayer Meeting: Our previous Tuesday evening prayer night is now going to be meeting on Monday evenings at 7:00pm in Room 211. 

Special Fall Offering: We are opening a Special Fall Offering ending on October 11. This fund will be going towards Church AV Tech Needs. A number of our cameras, projectors, lighting systems, and related equipment have either reached the end of their expected lifespan or are getting close to it. These are practical needs, but they directly support ministry. They help us serve people well on Sundays, support our mid-week ministries, and make sure our Sanctuary, Chapel, and Gym are equipped for the different ministries that use those spaces throughout the week. This is part of a three-year plan, and our goal for this first year is $108,000. You can make a donation and note "Special Fall Offering".

Celebrate Missions Conference: This year the Celebrate Missions Conference will start on Sunday, October 25 and run throughout the week. It will begin with a message from our keynote speaker Darren DeGraaf during Sunday worship services, followed by a cultural dinner and an evening program (register for the dinner here). This year we will have a seminar on evangelism, and missionaries visiting mid-week ministries. The theme for this year is Neighbours & Nations, reflecting on how the gospel is for everyone both far and near, and how we can share the hope of Jesus with those around us. More information can be found on our website. 

Women's Fall Retreat: Our Women's ministry is hosting a retreat on November 13-15. There are two different options: a full weekend or Saturday only. There are limited spaces for the weekend and we are over half full already. Women can find more info and register on our website. We hope many can join for this restful and uplifting time together.

Printed Lyric Sheets: For those who have a hard time viewing the screen at the front of the Sanctuary, we have some copies of printed lyrics available. You can pick one up from an usher on your way in.

PRAY FOR MISSIONS

  • Missionary of the Week: We ask you to join us in praying for Wilver N and his ministry in South Asia. Wilver serves through church planting, evangelism, discipleship, and theological education.

    Please pray:

    • Give thanks for four new believers who recently followed Christ in baptism. Pray that they will continue to grow in faith and be a testimony in their families and communities.
    • Pray for a new believer and her family as they grieve a significant loss. Ask God to surround them with His peace, comfort, and protection.
    • Pray for a church family facing health concerns and conflict. May God bring healing, forgiveness, unity, and restoration.
    • Praise for the safe arrival of their new baby! Ask the Lord for continued health, and strength in the days ahead. 

     

  • As a church, each month we will focus on praying for the world's most unreached and most persecuted countries. For the month of October, we will be praying for the country of Bangladesh.
    Bangladesh is home to over 170 million people, many of whom have never heard the gospel. Christians are a small minority and often face pressure or persecution for their faith. Yet God is building His Church through faithful believers who serve with humility and love.
    Pray for...
    • Spiritual breakthrough among the unreached Bengali people.
    • The millions of Bibles distributed each year would produce devoted followers of Jesus.
    • Christians to remain steadfast as persecution and pressure increase.
    • Continued growth and maturity in the Bangladeshi church.
