Keith & I want to thank our church family for caring for us after our house fire. The food, donated clothes, monetary gifts, cards, phone calls, texts & offers of help are greatly appreciated. It looks like we will be out of our house for another 6 months or more. So, for now, we are enjoying camper life on our property. God is good! ~ Keith & Melissa

The Prison Ministry is looking for a few good men to write to men in prison. You can either write in regular mail, or you can get set up with the messaging service that they have. There are no expectations as far as spending money, and if you want the Prison Ministry will reimburse you for your mail costs. These men are looking for someone to help them with their questions about God. Please contact Deb Rockwell at 419-571-6041 if you are interested.

We are  handing out cookies and hot chocolate this Thursday,  October 29th in the Church front yard. We  reached our  goal of  68 dozen.   Thank you to all that volunteered to bake cookies.
