ANNUAL CHRISTMAS TEA
Hostesses Needed!
It’s almost Christmas Tea time! It’s always a fun time of community and fellowship for our women. But we can’t do it without table hostesses! We need hostesses to decorate a table and to welcome others to join them!
If you would be interested in hosting a table at the Christmas Tea this year, you can sign up out at the Welcome Center or get with Beth Grider!
Hope Southern Indiana Thanksgiving Baskets
Every year Hope Southern Indiana prepares 100 Thanksgiving Baskets to give to those in need in our community. The past few years we have provided desserts for them to put in these baskets.
This year we’re selling fudge! Order forms are out at the Welcome Center! You can order fudge to go to the baskets and you can also order some for yourselves. All profits from selling the fudge will go to Nomad Church Collective.
ORDER FORMS ARE DUE NEXT SUNDAY, OCTOBER 30th!

Chest Of Joash
The Chest of Joash provides an opportunity to give above and beyond the normal tithe. The money from it goes directly to work needed done on our building.
In 2 Chronicles 24 we find Joash repairing the temple and a chest was set outside of it for people to bring a tithe that was used to pay the workers restoring the temple. Verse 10 says, “And all the princes and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished.”
A huge THANK YOU to all of you who have joyfully donated just as the Israelite officials and people did!
You can give to the Chest of Joash by clicking the button below and selecting “Chest of Joash” in the drop down menu.
