November 30th we will set oﬀ on our Advent Journey to
Bethlehem to witness again how God becomes flesh in

God’s uncondi onal and unceasing grace! Hope to see
you every Sunday in November and bring a friend!
November 9th is our All Saints Day and Veterans Day
Celebra on. During both the 9 am and 11 am services we

noon to prepare their tables and price their wares.
The Fair will open at 10 AM on Saturday, Dec. 13, and

Marion "Wick" West, will bring his Congressional Medal
of Honor to show you, and he will be available for
"selfies!" We will have some educa onal info for you,
about what those brave Airmen did to defy segrega on
while they protected our bomber pilots during WWII.
Their courage and skill changed our world for the be er,
and their work needs to be celebrated and remembered
by every genera on.
Lunch will be served at our Christmas Cafe, and, of
course, lots of beau ful items will be displayed for your
last minute Christmas shopping. Don't miss this patrio c

will further inves gate how we might include these and
other groups in our delibera ve processes.
Pastor Wes Bixby has been in discussion with the new
Rabbi at the synagogue, and they have agreed that we
will par cipate in the Community Thanksgiving Service at
1st Presbyterian Church on Sunday, November 23rd at
7PM, rather than our two-congrega ons mee ng. Wes
also invited Council members to assist him in priori zing
his me and tasks. These discussions will be ongoing.
On November 9th we will celebrate the lives of those who
have passed away during the last year. If any members
have loved ones who are not part of our church
fellowship, and would like these loved ones included in
this recogni on, they should call the church oﬃce.
We will be conver ng the Conference Room into a daycare nursery facility for Li le Pilgrim. There is a need in
our community for such facili es.
Our Stewardship Drive is approaching, and informa on
has been shared at several small group sessions. As we

chance to become familiar with the budget and plans for
the coming year. Also, the Christmas Love Oﬀering is

$18,500.

A brief message from the Moderator, Dick Miller.
On October 12th, I sat next to two ladies visi ng our
church for the first me. Both were from Sarasota. We
spoke briefly prior to the service and then again a er the
service, when they remarked, “You have something very
special happening here.” Being my modest self, I
answered, “We know we do.” They indicated they would
be returning. All of us at First Congrega onal have
embarked on a very special journey to “find our way.”
This journey will be filled with many surprises, but we
should never ques on that the Holy Spirit is
accompanying us every step of the way!
he Church Council met on Tuesday evening, October
7th. Moderator Richard Miller called the mee ng to
order, and Susan Moore led devo ons based on 1st
Corinthians 12: 12-20.
Minutes were presented and approved. Nancy Morris
gave the Treasurer's report, commen ng that giving has
kept pace over the summer months, so that we go into
the last quarter of the year with a small posi ve balance.
Clerk Jim Ferri reported that we gained one new member,
but lost one member who passed away. He also gained
Council approval to remove several inac ve members
a er no response to a empts to contact them.
Thom Reeves spoke on suggested improvements to the
AV system. The audio consultant believes some problems
are due to misplacement of speakers and poor aiming of
the speakers for coverage. Sugges ons include overhead
hanging microphones over the choir, realignment of the
exis ng speakers, a new control panel and a dedicated
sound booth. A er evalua on of our video needs, three
remotely controlled cameras were suggested. Council
decided audio system improvements were the most
immediate need. Pricing and more concrete plans will
now be gathered. Video will be added at a later date as
funds become available.
Susan Moore presented a brochure developed by John
Chapman, outlining weekly volunteer opportuni es and a
tear-oﬀ sign-up form. This brochure will be placed in the
pews shortly. Also, Thom Reeves presented updated
Church and COLLAGE brochures.
Our 60th Anniversary Service will be a combined worship
at 10:30 am on November 2nd. Pastor Emeritus Rev. Dr.

Saturday a ernoon there will be a recep on between
4:00 and 6:00 p.m. in the chapel for friends and
