Each Sunday morning, the Prayer Team invites those who wish to pray before the service to come to the library at 10:30 AM to have a quiet time of praying and preparing your hearts to worship the Lord.

Thanks to LeeAnn for stepping into serve these past months. Your efforts are appreciated!

Branch Church has invited any Minnewashta people who wish to be baptized at either the 9AM or 4PM service on Sunday, November 12, please contact Grant.

Meal and a Movie: Meal and a Movie continues on Thursdays from 6:00-7:30. The movie featured the next few weeks is “The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry”. The movie showcases how one person’s faith can inspire others, embodies the true spirit of Christianity, and displays how friendship knows no bounds. A sign up sheet is in the kitchen if you want to bring a meal to share!

November Mission of the Month: Voice of the Martyrs Ministry VOM is a missionary organization that serves persecuted Christians in the world’s most difficult and dangerous places to be a Christian. For more than 50 years, VOM has been dedicated to inspiring all believers to a biblical faith by encouraging their commitment to Christ and the fulfillment of his Great Commission no matter the cost.
The Voice of the Martyrs continues this mission around the world today through the following purposes:
1. To encourage and empower Christians to fulfill the Great Commission in areas of the world where they are persecuted for sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.
2. To provide practical relief and spiritual support to the families of Christian martyrs.
3. To equip persecuted Christians to love and win to Christ those who are opposed to the gospel in their part of the world.
4. To undertake projects of encouragement, helping believers rebuild their lives and Christian witness in countries where they have formerly suffered oppression.
5. To promote the fellowship of all believers by informing the world of the faith and courage of persecuted Christians, thereby inspiring believers to a deeper level of commitment to Christ and involvement in His
Great Commission.

Please give generously to this important mission of our church.
