October Bulletin
It Takes Just One Autumn Day
It takes just one autumn day to
know that I’ve been blessed
When the trees are red & gold
& nature’s at her best.
A kaleidoscope of colors is
dancing with the wind,
As the leaves begin to fall &
birches sway & bend.
The harvest has been bountiful
once again this year,
And as I count my blessings, I
shed a joyful tear.
Adrift in Autumn’s
pageantry, my heart is homeward bound,
As I recall my childhood days
with every sight & sound.
Leaf by leaf & branch by branch
are colors I like best …
It takes just one autumn day to
know that I’ve been blessed.

Crown Biblical Financial Study
Program
The
elder body approved the use of the Crown Biblical Financial Program. The Crown program is a ten-week Bible Study
that focuses on God’s financial principles.
Regardless of age or financial stability, anyone who has a role in
managing their household’s finances should consider participating. Married & engaged couples are encouraged
to attend the Bible Study together, working as a team through loving &
constant communication. Adult singles
(out of high school & making independent financial decisions) are also
encouraged to attend. Participation in a
Bible Study is one of the best ways for singles to receive some of the
financial stewardship guidance which they seek.
If it will increase their comfort level, singles are encouraged to
participate in pairs. Those who have had
experience in putting groups together in Bible Studies report that the best
results are obtained in mixing people without regard to age, marital status, or
financial condition. If you are
interested in participating, contact one of the ministers. If you are interested in becoming a group
leader, please indicate that also. This
will be a long term, multi-year program which will start small & grow as
the interest & trained group leaders are available. The first group will consist of a minister
couple & those who express interest in becoming future group leaders.
