Prayer Care
Is Genesis History? an adult class on Wednesday at 6:30 pm in the Sanctuary. This comprehensive documentary featuring over a dozen scientists and scholars looking at the world and explaining how it intersects with the history recorded in Genesis. From rock layers to fossils to lions to stars, this fascinating film will challenge and change the way you see the world. Led by Ward Van Dyke Gideon a class for women on Sundays at 11 am in the Large Social Hall. Through a look at the life of Gideon, you can discover that in-stead of ignoring, neglecting, or trying to escape your weaknesses, you can see them as the gifts, given specifically and strategically by God to unlock the door of God's strength. Led by Patti Johnson. Kingdom Man a class for men on Sundays at 11 am in the Small Social Hall. Kingdom Man challenges and equips men to fully under-stand their position under God as well as their position over what God has given them. Led by Pastor Bob.

Food Shelf We collect donations for the Food Shelf the 1st Sun-day of the month. They would appreciate Monetary Donations.
Operation Christmas Child continues to gather items for boxes year-round. We do this so that when it comes time to pack them in Novem-ber, most gifts are ready. We’re focusing on boy’s toys (balls, cars, yo-yo’s, Legos, small plastic ani-mals, etc.). Enjoy shopping for items yourself or
donate $1 to our jar and we’ll do the shopping! See our table in the lobby. Thanks for ongoing support of our Kids Quest kids as we learn to serve through giving. For more information contact the Church Office: [email protected].
People at First Church desire to hear from you when you are ill, fac-ing surgery, hospitalized or with the death of a loved one. Please let us know so we can cover you in prayer and uphold you during the difficult times by filling out the welcome card in the pews or email-ing Shalene at [email protected]. Pray for: Healing and strength for Judy Nikkel as she recovers from back
surgery. Rejoice that her surgery went well and has returned home.
