This is the 8th year the Sunshine Project has served kids in need in the local community. Kids receive gift bags full of school supplies, food, gloves, toothbrushes & toothpaste, and much more! Through this project, we are showing the love of God by providing for kids in need and spreading the love of Jesus! We would love to have your support. Please pray for this project. If you would like to donate, checks can be written to the church with the memo "Sunshine Project!" All donations should be turned into Marques Huesman by December 7th! Thank you for supporting our mission of serving kids in our community. 

The Outreach Committee invites everyone to join a food drive for the North Iowa Food Bank. There is a greater need than usual right now to help people in need. Please drop off your donations at the table set up on the north wall in the Fellowship Hall. They are also looking for paper products. Any contribution that you can make to this endeavor will be greatly appreciated. The collection runs from November 16th to November 30th.

Church Cancellation Policy Updated: In case of a tornado watch or warning, all church activities and church services will be canceled. This is because we do not have a basement. If school is cancelled, all activities at church will be canceled as well. The final decision to cancel a church service will be made by the Elders. The VP of Council/Elders will initiate the calls and process to other Elders for discussion. Once it is determined that the service will be canceled, efforts by the Elders will be made to contact the congregation.
