Series: Make My Joy Complete – A Study through Philippians
Title: Caring
Scripture: Philippians 2:19-30
~Notetaking booklets are in the foyer for our new series~
I have no one else like Timothy, who genuinely cares about your welfare. All the others care only for themselves and not for what matters to Jesus Christ. But you know how Timothy has proved himself. Like a son with his father, he has served with me in preaching the Good News.
I hope to send him to you just as soon as I find out what is going to happen to me here. And I have confidence from the Lord that I myself will come to see you soon.

Pastor Appreciation Month Matthew, Pastors and Ministry Staff thank you for each kindness, encouragement and all means of appreciation this month. It is an honor and privilege to serve at Grace. Thank you for loving God and each other so well.
Ministry Home In Kenya During Reuben Meriakol’s recent visit, we surprised him with a gift from Grace of $25,000 plus a grant from The Church Mouse Thrift Shop of $25,000 towards the building of a home for his family of 6. This home will be two levels. Top level for his family (similar to a parsonage) with the lower level to host ministry needs. Prayerfully consider a Housing gift towards the remaining need before the end of 2024.

You can use your own shoeboxes or sturdy plastic ones also. Every box represents an opportunity for a child to hear that Jesus loves them. Every child, any age, boy or girl, loves a soft stuffed animal—most have never had one! Boxes due back by Nov. 17. Online boxes cost is $25 each box. https://sampur.se/3LDCciL
