Dearly Beloved,

With at least some degree of a “return to normal”, the level of activities have greatly increased and our calendars are starting to fill up. Here are a few more things that I don’t want you to miss out on.

Peace in Christ,
Pastor Jen

First Friday Oktoberfest: On October 7th (6pm) join us for our monthly potluck supper as we celebrate Oktoberfest hosted by Charlie & Irene Germain. Bring a dish to share and your appetite! Invite a friend or two and join in this time of fun, fellowship and food.

Blessing of Animals: God created all creatures of land and sea and entrusted them into our care. On Sunday, Oct. 16th, we will be having a drive-thru pet blessing (1-3pm) as well as a brief service at 2pm. You are invited to drive through our upper parking lot for the blessing and/or the brief service. Invite friends, family and neighbors to come by as well. Children can also bring their stuffed animals for a blessing!

Trunk or Treat: Our event will be on Saturday, October 29th (3-5pm). If you would like to host one of the trunks, please sign up at church or contact the church office. Trunk or treat events are a great community event for families looking for a fun and safe alternative to trick or treating door-to-door, or just a good excuse for the kids to get one more use out of their holiday costumes. Kids will travel around the church parking lot from car to car as if trick-or-treating, stopping at each decorated trunk to receive a treat.

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:7)
