Midweek Meetup: Week of October 1
Verse of the Day~
“This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘In this place, desolate and without people or animals—in all its towns there will again be pastures for shepherds to rest their flocks. In the towns of the hill country, of the western foothills and of the Negev, in the territory of Benjamin, in the villages around Jerusalem and in the towns of Judah, flocks will again pass under the hand of the one who counts them,’ says the Lord. (Jeremiah 33:12-13)
Prayer~
Jesus, You bring beauty from desolation, life out of death. When the bad days come, I trust You to carry me through to goodness again. In Your name. Amen.
Meeting Jesus ~
The Book of Psalms is a book of prayer, and its prayers hold nothing back. No thought or feeling is off-limits with God. Join us as we begin our next 8 week worship series, “The Book of Psalms: Being Honest with God,” beginning with Psalm 13 and the prayer for individual help. With special music from Kaydence Salazar, singing, “His Eye Is on the Sparrow.”
Meeting Friends ~
Dean Rees joyfully announces the First Church Concert Series, beginning this Sunday, October 5 at 4 p.m. You’ll enjoy music from Dean and friends from the community and beyond.
Sharing Hope ~
A great big thanks and “yea God!” for everyone who came out last Sunday to support our high school youth as they begin fundraising for their summer 2026 mission trip to Mescalero, NM. Thanks to your generosity, we raised $625 at the dinner and received just shy of $400 in the morning offering.
