Sermons: Missed the Sermon last Sunday? Read it here and check out recordings from previous Sundays as well.

Helping Our Neighbors in Lumberton: Pastor Greg Williamson is helping coordinate SED hurricane response efforts in Lumberton. He tells us that gift cards for Walmart and Lowe’s Home Improvement are especially helpful as he works with families right now. (There are no fees on store cards as there are on Visa cards). We will start collecting gift cards on Sunday, October 14. We will keep you informed as we confirm other ways to help. Carolyn Jones and Lydia Berrong, Outreach

Hurricane Relief: Continue to check the SED and the Thrivent Disaster Response pages for updates and for information on how you can help. Please continue to pray for all those affected by the hurricanes including many in our area who may be without power for several days.

Advent’s 30th Anniversary will be celebrated on Sunday, October 28 with a potluck lunch after the worship service. Watch for more details.
