Verse by Verse Challenge, Happy Thanksgiving, The Forge (Pastoral Emphasis for 11/24)

As we move through this season of gratitude and giving, we are reminded of the many ways we can come together as a community to make a difference. Here are the latest updates and opportunities for you to participate and grow in faith this month.

Angel Tree Reminder

The Angel Tree is a wonderful opportunity to bless children from families in need this holiday season. If you’ve taken an angel, please remember to bring your gifts to AC2 on or before Wednesday, 11/29. Together, we can share Christ’s love and make this season a little brighter for those in need.

Verse by Verse Challenge

Did you know that over 2,000 languages around the world still do not have a Bible translation? This month, we are supporting Pioneer Bible Translators through our Verse by Verse Challenge. Our mission: Translate the Gospel of Mark into the language of the Oma people, an unreached group in Southeast Asia. While a small, growing community of Oma Christians exists, they currently lack a modern Bible in their native language. For $35 per verse, you can help bring God’s Word to life for the Oma people. Prayerfully consider how many verses you would like to sponsor. Donations can be made through the Love Offering with a note: Verse by Verse. The challenge runs until 12/15.

In observance of the Thanksgiving holiday, there will be no Bible Study on Wednesday, 11/27. We’ll resume on Wednesday, 12/4, at 7:00pm, continuing our journey through the book of Deuteronomy

As we approach Thanksgiving, we are filled with gratitude for each member of our church family. May your holiday be filled with joy, peace, and the love of Christ.
