W
e are so thankful that you have chosen to worship with us today. If you are visiting let me welcome you and ask that you please fill out a Connection card found in the pew and return it to an usher at some point today. The
International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church falls on the first Sunday of November each year. It is a time where the Body of Christ around the world joins together in prayer for our brothers and sisters who are persecuted for our faith. Our greatest weapon to effectively battle the enemy of this spiritual war is prayer. You will find an insert in today’s bulletin highlighting one of 10 most persecuted nations. We are asking that you join us this week in praying for our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world who are under attack for their faith in Jesus Christ. During the month of November alone it is estimated that 322 people will be murdered for their faith and over 200 churches and Christian homes destroyed. Visit us daily on Facebook as we will highlight the story of a persecuted believer and offer a guide on how you can pray that day. Also, tonight I want to invite you to worship with us as we say thank you to our veterans and look to God’s word for a message to our nation. For His Glory, Pastor Justin

Glenda Thomason: By Letter
On behalf of our students, the youth committee, and myself, I want to thank all of the drivers, clue givers, servers, worship leaders, extras and Danny Carr for speaking. We had over 65 volunteers for the Great Pumpkin Chase this year. Amazing! A special thank you to my youth committee for taking what I gave them and running with it. We could not have this event each year without the commitment from each and every one of you. Thank you for sacrificing your time (and brake pads) for our students.
Join us next Sunday morning as Pastor Vee, the founder and president of the Mission Voice Network in India, will be joining us. He and I will be sharing in the morning service how God is working in India despite opposition and persecution. A love offering of the ministry will be received.
