SUMMARY:Sunday School Teachers Needed
DESCRIPTION:Our Children’s Ministry is urgently in need of volunteers to serve as a Sunday School Teacher and assistant for the 3rd–5th grade class on odd months. This is a wonderful opportunity for a parent & teen or spouse team to serve together and make a meaningful impact in the lives of our children. We also welcome volunteers who may not be able to commit regularly but are willing to fill in occasionally as needed. Please prayerfully consider whether God may be leading you to join our volunteer team. If either of these opportunities pull on your heart to serve\, please come see\, call\, text or email me; I’d love to talk more with you about it\, Lea Pagliughi.

SUMMARY:Women's Bible Study: Joshua
DESCRIPTION:Sign Up Here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis winter\, we invite all women to join us for a 10-week study of the book of Joshua.  We will be using the book\, Joshua: Every Good Promise Fulfilled\, by Jen Wilkin. This verse-by-verse study helps us see God’s continuing faithfulness to fulfill His covenant promises\, both to Israel then and to us today. Israel’s story is our story.

Cost is $25 for the book (payable at the first class).  Meets weekly in the youth room. Choose either the morning or evening session.  Childcare for ages 0-5 is available during the morning session.  Questions can be directed to Laura Sommons.  Please sign up online.

SUMMARY:New Adult Elective: Resisting Gossip
DESCRIPTION:“Mark told me that our next adult elective is on gossip. He heard that our pastors think we’re childish and talk about each other too much. But\, how is it gossip if we’re just telling people the truth about others?” The truth is\, gossip is subtle and can creep into all of our hearts. Scripture calls us to recognize it\, confront it\, and put it to death for the good of the Body of Christ. Join us for this new class on\, “Resisting Gossip: Winning the War of the Wagging Tongue\,” as we learn what the Bible says about gossip and receive practical tools to pursue Christlike\, life-giving speech. Taught by Pastor Mike and various teachers. Meets in gym-south. (The class on Thessalonians\, taught by Scott Holwick and Tom Pagliughi\, will continue in gym-north.)

SUMMARY:Miracle Month
DESCRIPTION:Give Now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEach December\, we celebrate the greatest miracle—the Father’s gift of His Son. In response\, Ebenezer invites you to give a special offering above your regular giving to bless our missionaries. As we enter this season of hope\, our goal this year is to raise $25\,000 so we can send a $600 gift to each missionary as a token of our love\, gratitude\, and partnership in sharing the hope of Christ.  Special “Miracle Month” envelopes are available in the pews\, or you can give online. Let’s give generously\, remembering that it is truly more blessed to give than to receive. For questions\, contact Swannie Griffin\, Missions Committee Chairman.

SUMMARY:Christmas Devotionals
DESCRIPTION:Free Advent Devotionals will be available in the church lobby starting on November 30.  Christmas UnCut tells us the story about the real Christmas\, the one that actually happened 2\,000 years ago. The one that got lost when we turned it into a children’s nativity play and cut out the difficult parts. The one that got buried under the made-up details about donkeys and innkeepers and kings. This is a book about why what really happened at Christmas really matters – about how these amazing events can transform your life and your future. This book isn’t cute\, but it is real. We pray these words will cause you and your family to see the greatness of the wisdom of our triune God\, as you read of the glorious first advent of the Son. And may it remind us of the Son’s return at his second\, and final advent that we would persevere in faith until our last breath\, as believers.  Please take one copy per household.
