Series: Make My Joy Complete – A Study through Philippians
Title: Prayer, Preaching and Living
Scripture: Philippians 1:9-30
Notetaking Booklets are in the foyer for our new series
I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding. For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ’s return. May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation—the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ—for this will bring much glory and praise to God.
Welcome to Reuben Meriakol of Pokot Outreach Ministries, Kenya, Africa.
Hurricane Helene Disaster Relief Our hearts break for the devastation that has hit the Southeast twice in 2 weeks.

Kairos Prison Ministry at Ridgeland Correctional is October 17-20. We need prayer warriors while there. Homemade Cookies for Inmates—Inmates are drawn to the thought of someone baking them homemade cookies. It is something very rare in their lives and it’s a delicious way to start a conversation about God’s love for them. Sign up if you will be in prayer for this or to bake cookies (see the guidelines-no nuts, fruit, icing). Cookies should be returned by THIS Wednesday at 11:30 a.m. in ‘Ziplock’ baggies.
Trunk or Treat We’re hosting on outreach Sunday, October 27 (4:30-6:30 p.m.). Free food, candy & fun. We need 15+ volunteers to decorate their car trunks with family friendly décor—and pass out candy (have enough for 150 children). We also need wrapped candy donations to have additional candy on hand. Sign up today. Questions? Need creative ideas, speak with Andrew at 843-681-6698.
Beach Baptism & Picnic at Driessen Beach Park will be next Sunday, October 20 at 5 p.m. Interested in Baptism? Speak with one of the Pastors. Baptism is the public proclaiming of your faith placed in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. We’ll have a picnic before baptism with the church providing grilled burgers/ hotdogs & beverages. Bring salads, baked beans and appropriate sides to share. Come celebrate together!
