News -- for the week of November 22, 2020

I just want to wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving! This pastor is thankful to get to live and serve alongside such a wonderful group of believers. To give you a little update we had a wonderful Third Tuesday Lunch for the impoverished in our community this last week. We were able to serve 73 chili lunches to people in our community. I enjoyed the opportunity getting to pray for the people who came and received a meal.

We are now entering into the Christmas season, and I again want to remind you of the opportunity we have to support international missions through giving to the Lottie Moon Christmas offering. We will take this offering up throughout the month of December. I am also excited to share that we will have an Angel Tree set up in the sanctuary in partnership with the Methodist church. Your family can come grab an angel which gives the gender, age, and Christmas wish list for a needy child our community. This another way we can bless others this holiday season. I pray that the Lord sees you all well, and if you have any needs during this time that I can help you with, please call me at 901-485-7254.

In Christ,

Brother Ty

Since Thanksgiving is Thursday and schools are out, we will not be having Student Worship Wednesday night! Instead, I will be uploading the lesson that was meant for last week (and hoping that it actually uploads this time). 

With it being thanksgiving week, I just wanted to say THANK YOU! Thank you to you, church members, who took me and my family in and have loved us so much! Thank you to the adult leaders on Wednesday night, because without you we would not be in the place we are! Thank you to the students who have stepped up to become leaders! Thank you church for being one of the best  places to serve. I appreciate you all and I cannot wait to serve alongside of y'all for many years to come!

Thank you everyone who provided chili and fixin’s for our first Third Tuesday Free Lunch outreach this past week.  We fed and ministered to approximately 75 people!  What a blessing it was to serve and have our church family come along     beside us to reach out to our   community.  Our next free lunch is scheduled for December 15th and we will be serving potato soup.  If you would like to help serve that day and or provide a pot of soup, please let one of our committee members know.  Thank you again and give God the Glory always.
