Announcements for Sunday, August 17th

NEXT SUNDAY’S READINGS are Isaiah 66:18-23, Hebrews 12:4-24, and Luke 13:22-30.

SEPTEMBER GLEANINGS: Please submit any last minute articles/entries by tomorrow,          August 18th.

VOLUNTEERS are needed for NEXT SUNDAY and the following Sunday to provide goodies for Coffee Hour.  Several volunteers have already donated more than once this summer.  If you can help, please sign up on the glass case.

TWO SUNDAYS remain to donate to our summer collection of school supplies, socks, and underwear.  82% of the students at Harry Abate Elementary School on 11th Street in Niagara Falls live at or below the poverty level. Your gifts will be distributed directly to the students at Harry Abate by their teachers as they determine each student’s need.  Your help is needed and genuinely appreciated.

AUGUST MISSION ENVELOPES are designated to assist the flash flood victims in Texas.  Over 135 people were killed by flood waters, including children attending a Christian summer camp.  Hundreds of structures were destroyed, and hundreds are still homeless.  We will be working with our church’s Texas District, which has guaranteed that 100% of your donations will go directly to aid those who have been impacted by the floods.  To donate, use your mission envelope during August or donate online under “monthly mission”.

RALLY DAY is coming soon!  Bible Class and Sunday School will resume in three weeks (September 7) at 9:00 AM with worship to follow at 10:30.  Plan to stay for a picnic and fellowship after the service.  Hotdogs, hamburgs, and drinks will be provided.  There is a signup sheet on the glass case.  Please sign if you plan to stay so we know how many to buy for.Financial Peace University: September through November, 9 classes. Break out of the normal – living paycheck to paycheck or in debt. See insert. Contact Lacey at 716-525-5134 to attend.
