If you do not see envelopes assigned to you and would like a set, you may sign up at the table. If you no longer want envelopes, you may return them to the Welcome Desk. Envelopes are helpful to ensure accuracy when processing donations. Give A Gift of Rwandan Coffee We are selling one-pound bags of Cyimbili coffee in our book booth in the church lobby for $10.50. The entire cost is given to the plantation and ministry to help transform a very poor community in Rwanda. We can make an eternal impact as the gospel is spread and the church of Jesus Christ is strengthened. Sunday, December 16 at 11:00am Connecting our Friends and Family to Jesus How do we engage people with the truth of the gospel in a loving way, especially when it’s our family and friends? Pastor Austin will discuss practical ways to initiate and navigate conversations about spiritual matters as we seek to connect our friends and family to the person of Jesus Christ.
