Special Christmas Offering

This year the annual Christmas Outreach here at Grace Bible Church is targeting helping three of our missionaries, Chris Hardy of Relational Life Ministries, Dan and Laurie Fuller of New Tribes Mission, and Daryl Ounanian of Christian Urban Outreach. The World Outreach C0mmittee and the church elders have scheduled a Free Will offering on behalf of these three missionaries for Sunday, Dec. 5. Each of them have been tireless worked for Christ in their respective mission fields for many years and have been experiencing challenges in meeting their finances. Please be in prayer for this special offering.

Kids for the Lord

We are still in need of several volunteers to sign up for our prayer partners program. If you can pray, then you are qualified and we NEED you! The purpose is to have someone, other than parents and grandparents (because we assume you are already praying for your child) praying for each of our kids in the class. All that is required is a willing heart to pray regularly for the child you will be given and to give them an occasional card
or small gift letting them know that you are praying for them. I cannot stress enough how important it is to make sure they receive a physical token as a reminder of your prayers for them. If you would like to volunteer to be a part of this program, PLEASE sign up as soon as possible. We would like to assign all children as soon as possible. Let's show our kids how important we KNOW prayer to be!

Thank you,
Sandy McGlassion
