Mark your calendars for a fun night of fellowship.  Join us on Friday, October 4th, for a family game night in the Fellowship Hall.  Pizza/Salad will be available.  Please RSVP by September 30th to the church office so we can place a food order.  Bring your favorite board game.

Join us on Wednesday nights at 6:30 in the Fellowship Hall for a class taught by Rev. Dr. Charley Chase.  Charley is leading us in an in-depth study of Romans 6 entitled Union with Christ.

If you would like to participate in an outreach ministry, we have an opportunity to provide a birthday cake for the teachers each month at the Biloxi Upper Elementary.  The cake costs $50.  Two people can sign up so the cost is $25 each.  The teachers have really enjoyed this from us already.  A sign up sheet is located by the church office.

Join us for a time of prayer for the church on Sunday mornings at 9:00 a.m. in the parlor.

Greeter next week is Pat Pennell.  If you would like to help in this ministry, please use the sign up sheet located in the Narthex.  Thanks!
