Giving Thanks for Our Food. A Message for Children.

October 7 Announcements

A “Noisy” Offering: Come this Sunday with noisy pockets – quarters, dimes, nickels, pennies. Change is good! Your loose change will go towards a collection during Sunday morning worship to benefit the ELCA Hunger Appeal. We are also collecting non-perishable donations for Helpline House. Pastor Paul invites everyone, especially families with children, to plan on a walk to Helpline House after worship on October 10th to bring our donations.

Bible Study groups: The Men’s Bible Study group will meet this Tuesday, October 12^th, at 8:00am. The Rachel Circle Bible Study group will also meet this Tuesday at 10:00am. This is a make up for last week’s postponed meeting.

Confirmation Class: The confirmation class will have its second meeting at Woodward on Monday, October 11^th, at 2:00pm in the outdoor lunch area.

Children’s Chapel Time Messages: Pastor Paul is recording special messages for children every week. Visit our website to check out this week’s message on thankfulness for our food: http://bethanyofbainbridge.org/.

Endowment Fund Applications: Next week is the last week to submit Bethany Endowment Fund grant applications. The Bethany Mission Endowment Fund was created to support and expand the mission and ministry of Bethany Lutheran Church in ways not possible using the annual operating budget. The application period for a Bethany Endowment Fund grant ends October 15. Click here to download the application or visit the website for more details. Applications can be dropped off at the office or emailed to Debbie at .

Building Keys: Do you have a key to the building that you no longer use? Debbie in the office would love to get any keys no longer being used back so she can provide them to new volunteers or staff members who might need one.

Altar Flowers:  The altar flowers are given this week by Kristi Sutton in honor of her father’s birthday.
