Greetings all! Well, on the top of the list of happenings this month, I would like to announce the arrival of our baby girl. Kathryn Melissa Faith was born Nov 10 and was 7 lb and 20 inches long. Mom and baby are both doing great. So far our boy Jesse (3) is very excited about having a sister. Mark & Rebecca Bueckert

It was an especially great blessing this past month to receive cards and gifts for Pastor Appreciation Month. We also came home one day to discover about 100 helium balloons with church members’names “forked” to the ground in our lawn, along with a sign reading,”We Appreciate You!” John & Candy Adams

We are preparing a baptism service for four people—1adult and 3 children. We’re also beginning choir practice in preparation for the holidays. On Halloween we handed out cookies and hot chocolate, along with treat bags containing candy and a tract, and we prepared a Welcome Packet to hand out with information regarding our church. We served over 100 people each of the last 2 years with this outreach ministry! Owen & Lori Corcoran

I am teaching a Christian Education class in the school again this year. It is such a wonderful privilege and opportunity to be able to teach the Bible to kids in the public school system. I am teaching the Old Testament to a class of Grade 4 students. It isn’t always easy, but the kids are so attentive and anxious to learn. Sometimes they ask the most amazing questions!
