Announcements for November 16, 2025
We give thanks to WELCA today for their generous donation of $2,000 towards Spirit of Joy’s mortgage.
This week’s Interfaith Workshop, hosted by Mountain View UMC, will be discussing the Hindu faith today at 2pm. This course will culminate with an Interfaith Thanksgiving Service next Sunday at 2pm. Please bring a non-perishable food item to the worship service to be shared with Old Town Mission. Monetary offerings will assist the local homeless population.
Wednesday’s Worship/Bible Study – 5:00pm: Presentation, Prayers and Communion.
On Wednesday we will see how kingship is passed on to the great king David. God’s promises/covenant to work with and through the people of Israel continues. There are a lot of biblical themes that find their roots during this time as inherited kingship dominates the political governance of Israel. Read ahead in I Kings to get more out of Dr. Koester’s presentation. This material introduces the prophet Elijah, who begins the tradition of the great prophets of Israel. See you Wednesday – bring a friend!
The In-Reach/Outreach team will meet on Wednesday at 10 am in the Conference Room.
Church Council meets on Thursday at 1pm in the Conference Room.
The Gather Bible Study group will meet on Thursday at 2pm in the Conference Room. All are invited to attend.
The Men’s Breakfast Group will have their next meeting on Wednesday, November 26 due to Thanksgiving.
