Chapel
Service
You are invited to join us for our special weekly chapel
service this Wednesday, November 26th, from 8:30 to 9:00 a.m.
Our chapel service message will be presented by Mr. Schneck. The theme this
week is “Being Generous” (Gehazi). The Handchime choir will play for this
chapel service and are asked to be in the church by 8:15 a.m. to prepare. Families
and friends are invited to come join us in starting our day with the Lord.
Instead of our regular offering, we will again be
collecting a food offering for this chapel service. The chapel collection
will be given to local charities for distribution, depending on what we collect
(Anchorage and Wasilla Food Banks, Bean’s Café, etc.). We ask that items for
the chapel collection be non-perishable dry or canned goods. These items can be
brought for chapel on Wednesday, November 26th. Give
Thanks!
Thanks to everyone for the generous
donations to a needy family in our Hispanic congregation with your donations at
last week’s hot lunch. They were much appreciated.
