Week of November 9- 15, Updated
Dear Church,
It was good to see you last Sunday! We want to give an extra thanks again to the praise team for all of their preparation and leading us, Joel who helped so much with the sound system, and for your continued prayers and support.
Below are some pics of the ministry that has been happening in this place! During this time where the needs are more and our workers are low - we ask you to prayerfully consider how you can help your church in ministry. Whether it be driving, organizing, answering phones, shopping for toys, computer input, cleaning, cooking, packing food boxes, cleaning .. we have a place for you and need you!
Your time, treasures and talent is needed to further the Kingdom of God and to help people know that they are loved in practical ways. Let's continue to grow deeper in our love for God and our love for each other and community.
Majors Celestine and Shoshannah Ruwethin

Walmart Support
- From November 2 through December 31, Walmart customers will have the opportunity to round-up their purchase to the nearest dollar in order to make a financial contribution to The Salvation Army.
- The round-up option will be available to Walmart (not Sam’s Club) customers in-store, at manned cash registers (not self-check-out) and online, via Walmart.com and their app.
- Walmart Toy Registry is where you can purchase toys for the Angel Tree.
- (Amazon Wishlist is a second place where you can purchase toys for the Angel Tree).
Christmas Toys
We have reached our capacity for Angel Tree Toy Requests. Although, our application process is done for our area, there's still more work to go. We are actively seeking volunteers and volunteer groups who can help us prepare for our big distribution day.
We also we request if you can purchase a toy to help with this event - please remember there are toy registries set up to help you.
Church Collection Goals
The Salvation Army's joy is to serve people in the name of the Lord. During this time, even more people need help. Families, businesses, and the church are financially struggling. This is where we as individuals can step out in faith and give to God what is His. Then we watch Him work.
The tithes, offering, and World Services collected help support this ministry's budget. We ask that you pray and determine with/for the Lord what you will commit to financially in this next budget year October 2020 - September 2021. Help invest into this church.
Click on the link to see what our small goals are for this year. We pray that we'll be able to out give ourselves!
Remind App
Please help us keep you informed by signing up for the Remind App. Simply follow the directions. The goal is to touch base with a newsletter once a week and avoid 25 responses to a group text. This is a secure way for us to do this.
Feel free to share the info. Thank you in advance.
