Thank You: I would like to sincerely thank JACOC and all its members for the tremendous outpouring of gratitude and thoughtful prayers for June. She is improving now at Grandview rest home from her fractured wrist. The progress is slow and may be lengthy. How long she will be there is unknown. Depends on her and how well her progress goes. Again, I'd like to personally thank everyone there for the cards, well wishes and prayers. God's grace is wonderful. Thank you. Glenn Farris
 
Thank You: Dear Church Family, Thank you so much for the overwhelming love, prayers and support following the passing of my grandmother. Having so many of you visit with us at the funeral home meant the world to our family, and the delicious meals were such a comforting relief during a difficult week. We are deeply grateful for your thoughtful cards and for being a congregation that cares for one another so faithfully. With love and gratitude, Courtney and Lindsey Norton
 
The JA Youth Group would like to invite all Veterans of the congregation to have dinner with them on Wednesday, November 11th in the gym before class. Come out and enjoy a meal while getting to know our teens. Sign up on the family board outside the large auditorium.
 
Agape Counseling: Our Agape counseling office is now open 2 days a week, Tuesday and Wednesday. This is a great blessing to those served by this ministry. We need your help - Please do not enter the foyer of large auditorium on those days especially when signs are up and the doors from the auditorium are closed. We must respect the privacy involved in this ministry. Additionally, sounds travel in that area of the building due to the floors, and this can be a big distraction for counseling sessions. Thank you and please continue to pray for God to use this ministry for His glory.

Shut-In Ministry: We are looking for volunteers to help with a shut-in program. If anyone is interested in participating or would like more information, reach out to Kevin (931-252-0411) or Elizabeth (931-252-2099) Marengo.

Young-at-Heart will have a planning meeting for Seniors Holiday Banquet on Wednesday, October 21 in the library. All interested call or see JC or Ronnie.
 
Budget Time: Glenn is asking that deacons and ministry leaders start their budget process. Please have the final draft by October 25th. Your 2026 expenditures are in your boxes.
