Happy Thanksgiving!
This is a great week to
consider all we have for which to be thankful.
I encourage you and your family to make a “Thanksgiving List” throughout
the week. I also remind you to think of
those who have made a spiritual impact in your life. Thank the Lord for them and reach out, if
possible, and let them know how much they mean to you and your Christian faith. Happy Thanksgiving!
Today is the final collection day for Operation
Christmas Child boxes from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

The Right Now Video of the
week is “Beyond Bethlehem.” People continue to be drawn from all over the
world to the little town of Bethlehem—the place where Christ was born. Although
the birth of Jesus Christ took place more than 2,000 years ago, the message of
God's love will go on forever. In this Day of Discovery presentation, you'll
tour this fascinating modern city where the amazing events of Christmas began. Join hosts Jimmy DeYoung and Bonnie Keen as
they take you to key locations throughout Bethlehem, from Manger Square in the
heart of the city to the Shepherd's Fields. Follow along as the story begins
with King Herod and unfolds to reveal the true Messiah and King of the Jews,
Jesus Christ. https://www.rightnowmedia.org/Content/Series/1151?episode=1
