Hello!
Today is the Hallmark Bosses' Day holiday, and since, technically, all Good Shepherd members are my bosses, Happy Bosses' Day to each and every one of you—especially to the Church Council. Together we are a mighty team that it's great to be a member of.

Reignite is the name for our 90 Day Teams. Come help reignite Good Shepherd Church TONIGHT! Their meeting is at 7pm at the church. All are invited to join us to help mold the future of Good Shepherd Church. There are different areas of interest that would welcome additional support. Come join the meeting TONIGHT and offer your assistance.
Are you interested in Crafts? We have a group that meets together at church to work on their various craft projects, as well as socializing and sharing their "crafty" abilities. Stop by and bring your project(s) along! All are always welcome.
Manna November order forms are available now. 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. We realized an $84.62 profit in October. 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!
Do you know of anyone interested in having a table at our third annual Vendor's Fair coming to Good Shepherd on November 15th? Plans are underway now with the cost of a table being $25 plus 10% (or more) of the actual sales. Sale hours are 9am to 2pm with set-up beginning at 8am. Please have them contact Judy Jordan or Lori Haack for further details and/or a Vendor's contract. We have several vendors who have scheduled to participate in this year's event. The more we have, the greater the opportunity for a variety of special one of a kind gifts. Plan to be there for this unique gift-buying experience, and bring others with you as well!
Information about a free Mortgage Relief Project outreach event, part of the Illinois Foreclosure Prevention Network, to help lower your mortgage and avoid foreclosure, is on the back table at church. This event will be held on Saturday, October 25th.
Remember that you can check Good Shepherd's Facebook page for the latest news or updates, as well as calling the church office (815-886-4354). Be sure to leave a message if there's no answer and someone will get back to you. Also, please email me (revassistant@gmail.com) if you prefer not to get this weekly What's Happening report.
I am wishing peace, hope, love, faith, grace, health and Happy Bosses' Day for everyone! Have a great weekend.
