We will have a pot luck at 5pm followed by her presentation at 6pm. The entire community is invited to this event. A free will offering will be held and those attending are asked to bring a non-perishable item for cleaning—such as bleach, paper towels, disposable gloves, pails and brushes—etc. to assist those who need to clean up after a disaster. The church members voted on Sunday, Sept. 22nd to add an electric toilet to their current bathroom. This will give members toilet facilities year round, when the water is shut down over the winter months. Members are also in the process of a clothing drive. Clothes may be dropped off at the Mountain Market and stored in the church for a time when someone requests assistance or a need arises through either our community or through other unforeseen events. Jen Smith is wondering if some women in Peru would be interested in attending a “WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDY”. ????She said she can find some very interesting topics for women to get into. She led a study like this when she was traveling with her husband in the service. Call 655-8201 for more details.
