Call Committee: On Sunday, October 8, we held a Call Service and the congregation voted unanimously to extend a Call to Rev. Scott Lohman of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Aurora IL. Pastor Scott has received the Call Documents and he and his wife, Gina, are planning a visit October 25-27. The congregation will have a chance to meet with them the evening of Thursday, Oct. 26. Watch for details. Please keep Pastor Scott, his family, his current congregation, and Advent in your prayers that the Lord might lead him to a clear decision as to where He wants him to serve.

Change the World One Life at a Time: Sunday, November 5, 2017 at Dorton Arena on the NC State Fairgrounds. The worship service will begin at 12:30 p.m. Check our website for all the details including information about the event and volunteering.

Note that we will NOT be having classes or services at Advent that day. We are in the process of arranging transportation to Raleigh for anyone who needs it. Grace Lutheran, 824 North Buchanan Blvd, Durham will be having their 8:30 a.m. service.

Veterans: Help us prepare to recognize and honor veterans in our Advent Family. Take a moment to review and edit the list of veterans posted on the bulletin board in the hallway. You are invited to add yourself, your parents and siblings, and your children and grandchildren who have served or are serving. Contact: Carolyn Jones.
