PICTORIAL DIRECTORY
          October 5 is the final Sunday set aside for picture taking. Thanks to Terry Barber, Carol Casmer, Andrea Doletzky, and Lindey Vega-Miranda for their amazing work on this project!

          If you were not able to make it in to have your photo taken for the directory, photos can be submitted for inclusion in the upcoming directory.  Please speak to Terry Barber about these submissions.

EVENTS THIS FALL
Trunk or Treat will be Sunday, October 26 (3:00 - 5:00 PM).  

We will have a planning meeting after church, Sunday, October 5, to make sure we are getting organized for this event which has proven to be quite popular with our community.  Even if you can't make the meeting, we will send out a Sign Up Genius form to indicate where we will still need help.

CHURCH COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS (September)

>  Our projector has not been consistent in projecting.  Since it is better than ten years old, we are considering a replacement.  We are looking into getting a smart TV with interactive capabilities which allows HDMI input as well as ability to draw with a special, electronic pen.  

>  We are hoping to get handicapped accessible entry via push-button installed in the coming weeks.  Currently, the parts are back-ordered.  So, we will wait. 

>  We plan on added to our Servant Keeper office management system to allow for texting to large groups, similar to the email blasts, but with texting.  When it is ready to go, we will do a test run after church some Sunday.  

>  We are hiring a professional janitorial service soon.

REGULAR OFFICE HOURS
          For the most part, the pastor will be observing formal office hours (Monday-Thursday, 9:00 AM – Noon). Occasionally, duties will take him away from the office during these scheduled times, so you will still want to call or text to confirm any meetings with the pastor (248-719-5218).
