3 Thank you to Pastor Schipul for bringing us the message and leading the Worship Service this morning. Welcome in the precious name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We are very thankful that you have joined with us to worship the LORD. If you are a visitor, we encourage you to sign the Guest Book in the Narthex. We sincerely hope you will worship with us again soon and learn more about what God offers you and your family through Jesus Christ. Nursery care is available during the worship service for children 4 years old and under. Children are always welcome in worship.

4 Prayer Requests We encourage you to remember these requests in your prayers this week: Trinity Christian School: staff and students Our sponsored children through Compassion International: Eyob Gugusa Girma and Jemila Banki. Pastor Harkey and his wife, Miriam, and their family, as they prepare to join us next month. Volunteers serving (next week) Sunday, October 23 Elder of the Day Scott Schneider Ushers Lonnie Geer, Joyce Smith, Harry Winther, Bob Hackerott Greeters Larry & Paula Miller Reader Harry Winther Sound Technician Tom Abert Projectionist Tommy Randall Nursery Sherri Martin, Alyssa Belval Church Volunteer Openings If you are interested in being an Usher, Greeter, Sound Technician, Youth Leader, or a Sunday School Teacher, please contact an Elder.

5 The teachers and staff at Trinity Christian School would love your help in providing warm, homemade meals for Ms. Melanie Wile. (One of their teachers, who is currently undergoing treatment for cancer.) Meals or gift cards (restaurant or Hannaford's) can be dropped off at the school for delivery to Ms. Wile. Collection days are Mondays and Tuesdays throughout October. Meal suggestions: pastas, soups, casseroles. Contact Kristen Sproul with any questions ~ ksproul@tcskeene.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please keep the Monadnock Pregnancy Resource Center in your prayers. Next Sunday, Lutherans For Life will have a basket in the Narthex for anyone who wishes to donate a gift in support of this mission. Is someone resistant to the life-affirming message as you have presented it? Perhaps it s the attitude they sense when they have been approached. I have found that when my attitude is more reflective of Christ, my message is much better received, and I can do my job of lifting up those who are weak. So I pray, Lord, make me a servant who is humble and meek that I might lift up those who are weak. Amen. Lynette Auch, president of Lutherans For Life ~ a Life Quote from Lutherans For Life 5

7 Help Others Make a Place to Worship Since 1902, the Church Extension Fund has offered low-cost loans to assist congregations to provide space and place for mission and ministry. Now, you can invest in this mission. By letting the Church Extension Fund manage some of your funds, you can help others spread the Gospel while building your savings plan. To learn more, talk to your local LCEF Representative, (Bob Hackerott) or call THE-LCEF ( ) for more information. Altar Flowers Would you like to celebrate a special family occasion (birthday, anniversary, graduation) or honor someone s memory with altar flowers? There is a poster in the Narthex titled Flowers. You can write your name and the occasion/information on any date that you choose. Your occasion will be listed in that week s bulletin, and you may take the altar flowers home with you after the worship service. The cost for one arrangement is $20. You will receive a reminder payment slip in your church mailbox for this amount. 7
