TREASURER'S REPORT Our tithes and offerings for August are well below our budget. Let's pray about our contributions and try to make next Sunday a great giving Sunday to draw us closer to our budget and our Lord.
Our church needs everyone to give their tithes. And, if you don't, you need to read the scripture. Malachi 3:10 states "Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this," says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it."
Anyone wishing to make a contribution by mail, please use the following address:

Have a good week and God Bless

Looking for Sign-Up Sheets?
We are trying to
improve our first
impression to our
visitors. One way is
that we have moved
signup sheets and
other items for collection into the west hallway. Make
sure you check it out this Sunday, so you don't miss
anything coming up!
Baby Bundles Update We are now collecting for our 4th quarter Baby Bundle for
Cherokee Health Systems, and quite a few items have already
been donated. If you would like to help, please sign up for
specific items on the list in the Narthex or make a monetary
donation in the Baby Bottle.
During and after the Ladies Retreat, we received several
donations specifically for the Baby Bundles, so some of our
ladies have shopped and we have most everything for our 3rd
quarter Baby Bundle! Thanks for your generous donations.
We have received two letters of thank you from
mothers-to-be who have each received a baby bundle. If
you want to read the notes, they will be posted on a
bulletin board in the Narthex.

Gideons Card Ministry The Gideons International, founded in 1899 in
Wisconsin, is an association of Christian business and
professional men and their wives dedicated to telling
people about Jesus through sharing personally and by
providing Bibles and New Testaments. While they are
known worldwide for their work with hotels, they
predominately share Scriptures in schools and colleges,
prisons and jails, hospitals, and medical offices.
The Gideons have a card ministry that we would like to
share with our church. You may donate Bibles in
someone's name through this ministry. They have a
wide range of cards including sympathy, get well, thank
you, in memory, pastor appreciation, birthday,
recognition, and encouragement. We have placed a card
rack on the wall across from the large Sunday School
classroom at the west entrance to our church. To donate
Bibles to honor someone special, all you have to do is
choose a card, personalize the card by filling out the
blanks, add your message and send the card. To donate
Bibles, just complete the orange donation envelope
inside the card and mail it to The Gideons International
address on the front of the envelope.
Each $5 donation places a Bible in the hands of a person
who needs one anywhere around the world.
Kroger Community Rewards
The Kroger Community Rewards program is
helping us raise money for the CPWM. It is
an easy way to support our church and the
CPWM. Simply enroll your Kroger Card in
the program, following the link below. https://www.kroger.com/communityrewards
One misconception is that if you sign up for
the Community Rewards Program, you won't
get your fuel points. This is NOT true! You
will be able to do both!
