Dear Family:

We hope everyone is doing well and that power & water has returned to your homes.  This Sunday, as part of our month long 15th anniversary celebration, Mrs. Amanda Allen will be joining us in worship to thank us for our support of the Backpack Buddies program at East Clayton Elementary School.  Each Sunday someone from the community will be joining us to thank us for our years of ministry in support of the greater Clayton community.  Last Sunday we were privileged to have Trooper Brian Maynard from the Highway Patrol in worship with us, despite the flooding, to thank us for the many ways we support our local police.  Please join us this Sunday as we welcome Amanda Allen.

Speaking of Backpack Buddies, we need your help.  We are completely out of canned vegetables and we are very low on canned meats.  If you can bring in a can of vegetables or meat this Sunday that would be very helpful.

Finally, we will have a very special 15th Anniversary Celebration event on Sunday, October 30.  A special guest will join us in worship and we have a unique gift that illustrates the theme for the day that we will be giving to every family at the end of worship.  Please mark Sunday, October 30 on your calendar to join us for an exciting anniversary experience.

God’s Blessings,
