“To Make Disciples, United in Worship and Service”
What do these things
have in common?
Give up? This Sunday, November 23 at
7:00pm, we are hosting the Downtown
Waynesville Churches Annual Community
Thanksgiving Service. Dr. Prince is
bringing the message and we plan to have
a reception following the service. So…
we need you to bring cookies (preferably
homemade) to church this Sunday for the
reception! This is a wonderful opportunity
to worship together with our neighbors as
we all serve the same Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ! Please make plans to come!

RECENTLY HOSPITALIZED
Ginny Small
This week, we wrap up our teaching unit “The Heart of It
All” by thinking about “Shall Have Eternal Life.” This exploration
of John 3:16 has been a great experience, and Christi Huskison
will bring the final message in the series. Please pray for all our
worship services this coming Sunday, and come ready to learn
about eternal life!
On November 30, we’re starting a new teaching unit
titled “Advent at the Movies!” In this unit, we’re going to think
about ways in which Advent themes of God’s hope are reflected in
popular Christmas movies and TV specials. The messages in the
series will be:
“It’s a Wonderful Life!” (A Cry for Help!)
“A Charlie Brown Christmas” (Good News!)
“The Grinch Who Stole Christmas” (The Messiah’s
Mission)
“Miracle on 34th Street” (An Everlasting Kingdom)
Be sure to be with us each Sunday, as we’ll see how these films
reflect teachings about Christ’s coming!
This coming Sunday, November 23, at 7:00 p.m., we’ll
host our Community Thanksgiving Service. The churches of
downtown Waynesville, including First United Methodist, First
Presbyterian, Grace Episcopal, St. John’s Catholic, and us sponsor
and plan this service. We’ll have representatives from each church
involved in this service, and I will bring the message. Our offering
this year will go to the new Haywood Pathways center at the old
prison. Nick Honerkamp, pastor at New Covenant Church, will
tell us about this ministry.
After this service, we’ll have a reception for all our
churches in our Family Life Center. Since we’re hosting it, we
ask you to bring cookies to serve our guests. Thanks so much
for helping!
Remember that Bethlehem Marketplace is coming up
soon, on December 13. Please pray for this effort, and come work
in it! If you can help in any way, please contact Dan Smith in the
church office!
See you Sunday!
