OCTOBER MISSION OF THE MONTH is Union Gospel MIssion – Founded in 1902. Their mission is to provide Christ-centered, discipleship-oriented pathways and programs that restore the dignity and wholeness to men, women, and children.

Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities provides Christ-centered pathways and programs that provide comprehensive care to people struggling with homelessness. They also offer emergency shelter and three daily meals to hungry neighbors.

Please give generously to this important mission of our church. FIRST SUNDAY OF THE MONTH, MISSION – Benevolence Fund: Benevolence is the desire to help someone or a feeling of goodwill toward others. It can be monetary, to help those in need.

The Branch Church has invited us for Women’s Bible Study focused on the book of ACTS. They meet on Tuesdays from 9:30-11AM (started on Sept 26). The movement of The Holy Spirit was at work in the early church, just as He is in our lives today. The Holy Spirit unifies and spurs us on, helping us share the good news that Jesus is the only name that saves. In this study, we’ll encounter the dynamic and tangibal character of God, and how He uses unique and individual gifting of believers to accomplish extraordinary things!  Registration includes a printed study guide and bible highlighters.

Child care for ages 1 – 5 is provided. We also offer a study for home school kids. We kindly ask that anyone in need of child care, or home school, also volunteers to serve with kids 2 times per session. All volunteers will be background checked and require training with Branch Church. For questions,please contact courtnay.suter@gmail.com. Our apologies that we just received this information!

Please sign up for coffee/treats (on the clipboard in the kitchen), for after-service fellowship.

If you have an item for the announcements, please get it to the church office by NOON on Wednesday each week. Thank you.
