2. All Hallow's Eve-Light Up the Night!
 As we seek to be a bright place of community on what's otherwise a multi-faceted dark night, we are hoping to light up the neighborhood on Halloween.  We will be filling our property with light, and passing out candy and hot cider to our neighbors as they walk by.  Please join us to help spread the light of Jesus…costumes are encouraged!  Feel free to talk to Elise Parker or Dawn Haskell for more information. Festivities will start at 5:00 pm.
Donations needed for All Hallow’s Eve – As we prepare to light up the night, we are in need of gallon milk and water jugs (non-light block milk jugs).  Start saving them and bring them to church between now and Halloween. Ask your friends to save them to as we need as many as possible. Also we are looking for candy donations. Feel free to talk to Elise Parker or Dawn Haskell for more information.

3. Kids in worship:  Friday, November 4 at 7pm, we will be meeting at the chapel to discuss our concerns and ideas about the involvement of and care for our children in our worship gatherings.  All are invited!  Please let Sarah know if you plan on being there or want to be a part of the conversation.

4. Thanksgiving Themed Potluck- November's potluck will be on November 20th.  There will be a sign up sheet in the church foyer or you can send an email to Christina with what you are able to bring.  The following is what we need: turkey, ham, stuffing, gravy, a few dozen of rolls, potatoes, sweet potatoes, vegetables, drinks and desserts.
