Gresham Machen, and the 18th century New England Puritan, Jonathan Edwards. In celebration of our November OPC Thank Offering, one of the sermons will focus on the topic of generosity to our annual Missions Offerings. During our Missions Moment, we will hear an inspiring story about a famous reformation leader. Cedar kids you will especially enjoy it! Make sure to attend. November Thank Offering On Sunday November 27th, Cedar Church will collect our annual Thank Offering for the work of OPC Foreign & Home Missions and Christian Education. Each Sunday in November, we will highlight one aspect of the OPCs ministry that is served by this offering. Please remember this ministry generously and help us reach our $5,000 goal for worldwide outreach! Nursery Workers & SS Helpers Much Needed! Presently, Cedar Church is quite short-handed for female nursery volunteers during morning worship, Sunday School & evening worship. Some of our volunteers are serving twice a month or more, due to our shortage. Additionally, we need several Sunday School helpers to assist us with our growing childrens Sunday School program. Please sign up to volunteer through our Connection Card, or see Angie Dykema (nursery) or Ted Himebook (Sunday School).
ANNOUNCEMENTS Holiday Parade Outreach The Hudsonville Holiday Parade will be held on Saturday, November 19th, at 10 AM. Cedar Church will be handing out hot chocolate and invitations to church along the parade route. We need your help! Sign up through our connection cards or see Pastor Steve for more information!

Kent County Jail Ministry On Sunday, October 30th, Cedar Church will host our 5th Sunday chapel service at the Kent County Jail from 12:45 PM - 2:15 PM. Please keep this ministry in your prayers. Love INC - Love INC has many volunteer and donation opportunities. For more information please call 662-3300 or check out their website for a list of current needs at www.loveinthenameofchrist.org/wishlist. Linens of Love Project - While the Senior High Youth Group was down at Navajo Ministries in New Mexico, it came to our attention that the on-site foster homes are in need of new bedding for the children. The Senior High Youth group is collecting new twin size bedding sets (comforter & sheets). These will be taken down to Navajo Ministries children's homes in January. If you'd prefer to make a monetary donation that would be fine as well. All bedding and donations need to be at church by December 31st. If you have any questions, please contact Angie Dykema. Please Reserve Last Two Rows of Chairs Cedar session would request that the congregation reserve the final two rows of chairs in the gymnasium for visitors, late comers and families with small children. We hope this helps us serve the needs of our growing church family.
ANNOUNCEMENTS Care Packages for College Students - Once again it is that time of year to let our college students know we are thinking about them. The Girls Club will be packing boxes for our 11 college students (5 girls, 6 guys) on November 2. There is a box in the hallway in which to place your contributions towards these packages. Any questions see Pam Himebook or Carin Hartwell. The 11th Annual Patriotic Hymn Sing to honor our veterans will be held November 6th, at 7:30 PM in the First Jenison Christian Reformed Church (Cottonwood at 10th Ave.).

Also, please consider how you might bless those facing difficult times by providing a Christmas dinner basket and/or gifts for families or individuals at Christmas. If you would like to provide holiday help for one or more families, please contact Love INC at 616-662-3300. My Personal experience as a LOVE Budget Counselor
That the program is less about financial directions and more about establishing personal disciplines. More about being a life anchor point for a client than an answer man. More about listening than telling. More about prayer for and with a client and less about personally fixing things. More about being a practical Christian and less about being a perfect person.
ANNOUNCEMENTS School Building Reminders Cold weather will soon confine us indoors. Lets remember to be good stewards and thoughtful tenants of the building. Here are a few reminders: 1. For safety and security reasons, kids should not run, horseplay or wander in the back hallways, or run and horseplay in the front hallways after services. 2. Please respect all school property in the hallway and in classrooms. When in doubt, ask yourself, Would a school teacher allow a student to do this during a normal school day? Lakeshore pregnancy Centers will be offering new volunteer client advocate training sessions starting November 1, and would love to invite you to get involved. Each client advocate is trained and prepared to minister one-on-one to women at Lakeshore Pregnancy Center. If you feel called to this area of service, or for more information you can email us at kari.wiersema@lpcenters.com or by calling 616.895.1893. On Saturday, October 29, Zion Christian School will be hosting "Great is Thy Faithfulness" Auction. We would like to invite everyone to join us for a fun-filled night as we support Christian education. The silent auction and catered dinner start at 4:30pm. The live auction starts at 6 pm. If you would still like to contribute or volunteer, please contact Connie Parks at 616.531.4794 or Melissa Postma at 878.9472. Thank you to all who have contributed and we ask for prayers for continued support.
