Weekly Bulletins
This morning we will be celebrating Communion or the Lord’s Supper. The Lord’s Supper is a special recognition of Christ’s death. If you have accepted Jesus Christ as the forgiver of your sins and the leader of your life, you are welcome to take communion. If you haven’t accepted Jesus as forgiver of your sins and the leader of your life, please take the time during communion to watch, listen and pray and seek God at this time.
Following the service this morning, we invite you to stay for a Potluck Lunch following the service. If you are visiting today, please stick around and enjoy some time enjoying the food and fellowship.
Thank you to Doreen and to Mari Lynne for organizing and hosting the Fall Women’s Retreat yesterday. We pray that is was a benefit and a blessing to those who attended.
Acts reading for this coming week is Acts 6-10. We are reading together 5 chapters a week as a way to engage our minds and hearts toward the work of renewing and developing us personally and as a church. We encourage you to read along. Pastor Dave will be focusing his messages on selected sections of the assigned readings. Pastor Dave would like to have a testimony each week from someone on what the learned during the week.
On Tuesday Mari Lynne Katsma will be having surgery. Pray for a good and hurried recovery. Pastor Dave will be taking off a couple of days to help Mari Lynne in her post surgery recovery.
This Wednesday, October 9th from noon to 5 pm is another Red Cross Blood Drive. This time it is held here at MarshView Ministries. Sign up on the Red Cross website to give blood or let us know if you can lend a hand at the event. We could use another volunteer or two.
Attention Ladies: MarshView Ministries will begin a Women's Recovery Meeting starting Thursday, October 17, 7 - 8pm. This weekly meeting is open to all ladies who struggle with any addiction and/or life issue and who are looking for a faith-based support group. Call or talk to Ellen Zirbel, 920-210-6176.
We haven’t had a lot of feedback concerning the time for the children’s ministry options. We would really like input on when it would be the most convenient time for parents and children. This is for elementary age kids.
Horicon will have its Community Trick or Treat on Saturday, October 26th from 4 to 7pm. This is a huge event for MarshView as we open our doors to the community to provide not only candy, but Christ and faith centered crafts, along with cookies, coffee and hot chocolate. We have hundreds of kids and parents that look forward to attending this event every year. It is a way to touch base with our community and where families enter into our church to enjoy and event and to make connections with us. This may be the one opportunity to impact kids with a positive influence and the message of Christ. May the light shine in the darkness. We will be asking for home-made bars and cookies as well as volunteers for this event. Mark it down on your calendar.
