• I The Bible says this in 1 Cor. 14:33 - For God is not the author of confusion (a God of disorder - NIV), but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. In accordance to Bible principles and guided by Church Manual instructions, our congregation will begin today the procedure of electing new church officers. First step is electing the Nominating Committee through direct vote. Use the list provided and circle 5 names. A team of deacons/deaconesses will count the votes and present the list with names before the congregation for a first reading  (leaving room for eventual clarifications and inquiries during this coming week). Next Sabbath is the second reading and the vote. Before pondering these five names, please pray about and consider trustworthy people, both men and women, to be part of the Nominating Committee.   

• Newstart Lifestyle classes will be held in the fellowship hall on the 2nd Monday of the month starting in January, 6 PM.
