We wish you a Merry Christmas! We had a tremendous Holiday Dinner with a great meal attended by a very energetic and spirited group of people of all ages. We enjoyed the time together and were able to spend some time with people we love and watch as children received gifts and we all sang songs.

We end our year focused on Jesus! As we are enjoying this season of the year, we are bringing it to a close by focusing on the blessings of God through Jesus Christ. JP ignited our thoughts on the first Sunday in speaking of love. What a great topic!

“Shared Blessings” was a wonderful time! We always have a devotional before handing out the boxes. Praise God for being able to work with so many Christians in the Memphis area to share groceries for meals, but for also sharing the word of God!

We are ready to eat - at anytime, aren’t we? The Wednesday night Thanksgiving meal was so well attended and the food was (as usual) very delicious! Chad Cox and his ‘kitchen crew’ do a great job each week - and even though they are taking a break over the holidays, they are ready to begin again in early 2025.

What a privilege to serve God together! Please remember our brothers and sisters in Christ in Ukraine. The reports keep coming of intensified bombing in Kyiv. In spite of this, our brothers and sisters in Christ continue to serve God by helping others, teaching others and regularly participating with them in worship.

The time has changed-literally - and the leaves are ‘falling in line’ as if to recognize that ‘time marches on.’ It is a gorgeous time to be outside! We are enjoying so many blessings from God—and we are entering the time of year that has to be a favorite for God-fearing people...Thanksgiving.

It was a great weekend of worship on Sunday! We had guests visiting, some coming back from Fall break, and so many ‘regulars’ who are here because they recognize the beauty of being together to worship God and encourage their brothers and sisters. It was wonderful to worship with each one and we look forward to every occasion.

Our Trunk or Treat is now behind us and even though it was early, there will still be time for children to get out into the neighborhood on October 31. We are proud of our children and are dedicated to teaching them the truth of God’s word at every opportunity. We want to invite them to be a part of our Bible classes.
