ANNOUNCEMENTS & EVENTS
T he L ord ’ s S upper
The Lord’s Supper will be on Sunday
evening, November 5. Because of the
exceptional blessing we have in this
sacrament and the danger of eating and
drinking unworthily, it is necessary that
we come to it with knowledge, faith,
repentance, love and with hungering
and thirsting souls after Christ and His
benefits. The congregation is encouraged
to use all appointed means, public and
private, to come to the Lord’s Table,
depending upon God for the gracious
preparation of the heart according to
His promise (Psalm 10:17). Our next
scheduled Lord’s Supper will be observed
on December 3 in the evening service. C hurch - wide W ork D ay
There will be a church-wide work day
on October 28, beginning at 9:00 a.m.
at Point Pleasant. Come and help get
the facilities ready for our fall events.
Cleaning supplies will be provided.
