ANNOUNCEMENTS


// Nursery Volunteers Needed

Our nursery is growing in number and we need help in caring for all of our little ones on Sundays. We’d love to utilize the multiple rooms we have, but we need more volunteers to be able to make that happen.

We have a need for 6-8 individuals to serve on Sundays. It can be once a month, or as many times a month as you’d like. A background check is required.

If you’re interested in serving in the nursery, please contact Mandie Nolte at amandabarrack@gmail.com.

// Let’s Do Good

This Sunday we are starting a new sermon series called Let’s Do Good. We’ll be jumping off of Galatians 6:10 which says β€œTherefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to the family of faith.” Our focus during this series will be to look our how we can use our time, treasures, talent, and talk to do good to those around us.

// College Hangout Sunday

Calling all college students! Ethan and Kayleigh are hosting a College Hangout on Sunday, October 19th beginning at 1:00pm. It’ll be a time to build community and get to know other college students at First Church. There will be all sorts of games, football on the big screen, and pizza.
