• Brothers’ Prayer Gathering at 9:15 in the Intermediate Room
• Afternoon Service - The Purpose of Proverbs...Proverbs 1:1-7 “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 1:7 
• January Collection - The Nursing Home - It is nice to be operating the Home with a positive cash balance for this past year.  The Board and I feel that we can now make some capital improvements that have been delayed due to the financial situation we found ourselves in over the past several years.  As you know, we are planning to update the canopy in front of our main entrance, along with remodeling the front lobby and the activity room. Our goal is to have all three of these projects completed by the end of 2020.  We are also putting the finishing touches on 2 resident rooms that we have been working on this winter. We hope to continue to remodel resident rooms when we feel that we have the funds to do so. Thank you so much for supporting the local mission of our church.  Your donations are always very much appreciated, and necessary to meet the ever growing costs of caring for our senior church members and community.
