Series: Make My Joy Complete – A Study through Philippians
Title: Pressing On
Scripture: Philippians 3: 12—4:1
But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior. He will take our weak mortal bodies and change them into glorious bodies like his own, using the same power with which he will bring everything under his control.
We Rejoice with Seth & Heather Anthony in the birth of their twin daughters, Naomi (4.14 lbs.) & Marina (4.15 lbs.) on November 5th. Congratulations to all!!
Samaritan’s Purse Shoeboxes Are Gospel Openings To The Ends of The Earth Shoebox gifts go to 170+ countries to boys and girls living in major cities, dense jungles, arid deserts, war zones, on remote islands, and along lofty mountain ranges. Local church teams bring these special gifts to children in need by plane, boat, truck and even donkeys, camels & elephants —even to hard-to-reach areas where there are few believers. Stop by the shoebox table today –there are guidelines to follow. You may also use your own shoeboxes or sturdy plastic ones. Every box represents a GOSPEL opportunity for a child to hear that Jesus loves them. Bible stories in their language will be inserted. Every child, any age, boy or girl, loves a soft stuffed animal—most have never had one! For most they have never received a gift of any kind! Boxes due back next Sunday, Nov. 17. You may also pack a box online with our church’s link - cost is $25 each. https://sampur.se/3LDCciL Our goal is 600 packed boxes and 100 online (we have 68 online, so far)! Have fun!!
Shoebox Sunday In Grace Kids Our kids are packing 200 boxes today!! It’s a wonderful day of giving and caring for children worldwide!
