ALL SAINTS’
SUNDAY:
“With angels, archangels, and with all
the company of heaven…” When we
gather around the altar of the Lord in His House, we pray and praise God with
“all the company of heaven.” Those we
have lost in the Lord are not truly lost to us – they have simply entered their
rest with the Lord. As we gather to
worship our Lord, we gather along with them.
On the Last Day, everything that God has given into the care of our
stewardship will fade away – everything except our brothers and sisters in
Christ. Caring for one another in love
and grace is our highest calling.
We
pause today to remember all those who have gone to their heavenly home,
especially during this past year: Dale
Burbrink, Dallas Kreinhagen, Maxine Snyder, Kathryn Taulman, and Herb Stiltz. Please note the memorial display today in the
narthex.
THE CHURCH FOUNDATION will meet after worship TODAY. Please meet at the front pews.
PIE SUNDAY: Pie
sheets are still available in the narthex.
Please pick one up and complete it (you may also color it if you like!)
and return it so it can be posted on the windows in the narthex. A Christian Growth Card is also available in
the narthex if you did not get one last Sunday.
These are being given to help each family sit down and consider what
gifts God has given to them and what they are doing with those
gifts. These will be put into sealed envelopes to be put in a basket in
the church next week, Pie Sunday, November 11. A pie sign-up sheet is in
the narthex – sign up today to bring your favorite pie to share after worship next
Sunday as we enjoy a delicious dessert and fellowship with our church family. (No SS/BC that day)
