Help out with our next Churchyard Work party (or other work needed too) on Saturday October 24. The plan is to work together from roughly 9:00a-noon.

ALL-CHURCH EVENT
Potluck: Pumpkin Spice
DATE/TIME — Sunday Oct 25 after 2nd service (about 12:30p)
It’s that time again! Fall is here and we are celebrating as only we in the PNW can … with a Pumpkin Spice themed potluck! Now, don’t get hung up on the ‘pumpkin’ or the ‘spice’. This is meant to be fun. So break out your best cozy, warm, fall-themed dish and come share a meal together.
POTLUCK TIPS & HELPS
In order for us all to have enough to share, plan the size of your dish to be at least the size of what might feed your family. This may mean you could sign up to bring more than one thing.
We always need set-up and clean-up helpers — any and all help is welcome! Just show up.
And of course, allergies — so many varied ones in our church family, so labels are always appreciated! Our one main allergy ask is no peanuts please.
MEN'S MINISTRY
Men's Study: Can I Trust the Bible?
DATE/TIME — Thursdays Oct 29 – Nov 19 at 6:30-8p
This fall join the men in a 4-week video based study — Can I Trust the Bible? This series, from Apologetics Canada, will go over everything from where we get the books of the Bible, why they were chosen and why others aren’t. If you have ever wondered about where your Bible comes from, or if you know someone who doesn’t believe it’s true, this study is for you!
There will be no homework; just show up and learn something new. After each video we will go over key terms and discuss the topic as a group.
Meeting Thursdays 6:30-8p at church from October 29 thru November 19. All ages welcome. Snacks provided each week. Our Men’s Friday Morning meetings will be on hold during this study.
