We celebrate the recent baptisms of Ruthie Idle and Madalyn McManus. Our Forward Church family is encouraged by your obedience to follow in the footsteps of Jesus in the display of baptism.
Forward Church family, please lift up Ruthie and Madalyn in your prayers, thanking God for their obedience, for protection from attacks of the enemy, and for encouragement for them to live out all that God has in store for them, using their gifts for the Kingdom and staying close to the heart of their Father.
Once again this holiday season we will be blessed by having our forKids choir performance. The kids choir will be singing at our service on Sunday, November 24th. Sign ups will begin this Sunday! This is for ages 5 years old through 5th grade.
Practices will be after church on the Sundays of Nov 10th and 17th.
Parents, if you would like your children to participate, then you can sign up out at the Welcome Desk after the service this Sunday. Then invite all your family and friends out to the service to see the forKids perform!

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.
