From the Pastor
Something pretty special happened this weekend. We
got to witness God's faithfulness! With a tremendous
amount of JOY we want to announce that $5918.60
was raised for this year's Spotlight Ministry The Bridge City / Orangefield Ministerial Alliance.
WOW!
When we first went to the Missions Team with what we
felt we knew God was telling us to do, they prayed and
immediately everyone was on board. We then said yes as
a church to move forward with setting money aside to do
this! And got busy! This wasn't an easy process, which
took a tremendous amount of planning and organization,
but it was more than worth this leap of faith to see what
God can do! We kept moving toward what God told us to
do.
We had over 55 volunteers just on race day alone and 216
runners/walkers! That means 216 people were prayed
over, received information about the Alliance and the
great work they are doing!
Our main goal was to ensure this event was Gospel
centered with missions pamphlets, missions books, prayer
cards, information about a family going into full time
missions in Guatemala. And the most popular item taken
from the missions tent was Bibles!
We may never know the impact this event had on
someone that took a Bible or a Missions Book. We may
never know who at the ministerial alliance needed food
and were ministered to through that ministry as a result of
this donation.
Thank you so much for getting behind what God is doing
here! It truly reminded us of His faithfulness!

Sterling Silver Seniors
Sterling Silver Seniors held their September luncheon
on the 6th & Mike Freeman provided music.
We will have our October meeting on the 4th with a
covered dish meal, November meeting on the 1st
with Darrell Segura for entertainment, and our
December Christmas lunch on the 6th.
We hope to see everyone there.
Rodney & Pat
Children’s Ministry
The children have been busy getting settled back in a
school routine. They have begun new curriculum in
both their Wednesday night class (Team Kids
Catching Air) & Sunday morning Children’s Church
(Kids Own Worship).
Please be in prayer for our Children’s Department &
how God can use us to influence their lives.
Student Ministry
The Youth have been very active recently,
as we have begun a Bible Study on Sunday
evenings, returned to school, and participated in
“See You At The Pole” in September.
In the upcoming months we will have
“5th Quarter” on October 21st and a
Youth Retreat on November 19th.
Snacks are needed for “5th Quarter”. If you can
provide them, please see Andrew Knight.
We are also in the process of planning
and preparing for Hot Hearts in January 2017.
Andrew
Women’s Ministry
The Ladies Ministry has been busy the last
few months. During July we found our
creative side with Painting With Prayer. Our
Bible Study, “The 7 Experiment” began in
August, & in September we joined other sisters
in Christ for a Beth Moore Live Simulcast.
The next months will also be busy as we enter
the holiday season and have several events
scheduled, including an outing in November
and our Christmas Party in December.
Please continue to pray for us as we seek
God’s leadership for our ministry.
