WHAT'S HAPPENING AT GOOD SHEPHERD CHURCH

Hello!

Welcome to fall!  Just think, three months from today we will celebrate Christmas.  Speaking of celebrating, Sunday was the fifth anniversary of my being your Pastoral Assistant.  Thank you for all your kindnesses throughout the five years.  We have certainly had a lot take place over that time.

Reignite is the new name for our 90 Day Teams.  Come let your light shine and help reignite Good Shepherd Church.  Two meetings are planned for October, on the 2nd and 16th, and you are welcome to join us at any time to help make it happen.  There are many different areas of interest that would welcome additional support.  Attend the meetings and have some fun as well!

Manna order forms for October are available in church and are due to be turned in by Oct.5th.  Manna cards are a safe way to spend without carrying cash or worrying about your credit card being hacked by a security breach.  There are several vendor cards that will suit everyone's needs, and they make excellent gifts as well.  Best of all, you only pay the face value of the card and never have any extra fees added.  Check out the newest form and consider placing an order.  Call the office (815-886-4354) if you have any questions about the program and we'll be glad to help out.  Thanks!

Looking Ahead – Mark your calendars now for a Family Fun Day that's being planned on October 18th.  We'll pass along more details as we get closer to the date.

As always, I am wishing peace, hope, love, faith, grace, and health for everyone.
