The congregation has financially supported them in the past and will be voting on directing some of our 2016 Mission funds to them.

Tuesday Morning Women’s Bible Study will meet on February 7 at 10:30 a.m. and begin a study of “Entrusted, A Study of 2 Timothy” by Beth Moore. This six-session study encourages us to walk in strong faith as we guard what God has entrusted to us: the gospel and our gifting. Study book cost is $13. Please let Maryanne Warne know if you will be attending

Change the World: One Life at a Time – 500th Reformation Anniversary Celebration: The most important way you can help right now is to prayer for the event. Talk with Judy Neely if you would like to part of the prayer team.

Worship Leader Schedule: Jan. 29, Feb. 5, and Feb. 26 – Pastor McDaniels; Feb. 12 – Pastor Lineberger; Feb. 19 – Pastor Williamson

Call Committee: We received a list of 8 candidates from the SED. Pastor Lineberger has contacted all of them. Two have asked to be removed from the list and two are currently interviewing. This leaves us with four to six potential candidates. The Call Committee will meet on January 31 to begin reviewing the profiles of each pastor and preparing interview questions. Check our website or the green binder on the table in the narthex for the latest information.
