Hey Church,
There is a lot happening right now as we begin to move into the Christmas season and our Next Steps as a Church. So I’ll be as brief as possible, but please read and respond with all you got.
Thank you guys for your patience. I know we are all really ready to get back to things like Home Groups, KidJourney, Adult discipleship, etc. Now that the building is not in our way, we are working constantly to reestablish these great ministries.
- Don’t forget to set your clocks back this Saturday night.
- We really, really need people to clean before Sunday – Sweep, mop, and clean bathrooms, Access, and kitchen. Jayme and I will do all vacuuming and stage cleaning.
- We need someone to mow and weedeat. Outside looks rough.
- This years Christmas Drama Event – Did That Really Happen? will be presented December 27th during our morning service. We need all teenagers and kids who wish to participate to let Jayme know ASAP. We will soon begin practicing and choosing people for roles. There will be plenty of speaking and nonspeaking roles. We also need others including adults to help with sets, costumes, etc. As usual this is a production written and produced by The Creative Arts Team, so you know it will be good. Don’t miss out.
- Home Groups will begin building during November. If you are a Home Group Leader please attend the 40 Minutes meeting every Sunday morning from 9:30-10:10 am. If you would like to explore being a Home Group Leader please see Brad, we need you.
- Tomorrow, check back here to see KidJourney news. Its coming back!! Yea!
- January 1st – Why not go with Brad and Jayme to see the Avett brothers at the Fox at 8pm? Tickets are $25. We will order tickets on Nov. 4th if you would like to be seated with us. Haven’t heard of them – YouTube em now.
Please be faithful in your giving. We took up less than our needs in October. We know times are tough. Remember, God allows tough times to see how tough the faith of His children. Help us accomplish our goals of more and more mission giving.
You are a beautiful people and it take all of us serving and moving in the Body to get where we are going. I’m glad you are going with us.

I will come by Saturday to clean.
Also, tell Jayme to let me know whatever I can do with the Christmas event I will be more than glad to help.
It is good that Kid Journey is starting back up. I think the kids need that time to themselves and the parents need time to themselves in the sanctuary as well. It’s a mental thing you know!!
I’ll talk to Bob about Home Group leadership – maybe you could as well.
I love The Church At Woodland and the people who go there.
Tithing needs to be addressed. Bob and I live on my income and a home inspection here and there. We always give much more than 10% and God has always taken care of us and our financial needs.
If our members and visitors would just realize that God will always provide and provide even more when you learn to let go of that precious money. God is precious, not our money. AMEN!

People need to hear how tithing and trusting in God changed their lives, not more sermons about how we need to be doing it.
