and the upright walk in them,
but transgressors stumble in them.

Announcements:
Andy & Christy Streit are missionaries appointees with Baptist Mid-Missions, and are with us today to present their burden for the South American nation of Peru. Four of their children are with them Felicity, Fawn, Gabriel and Charlotte. Andy has been a pastor in Indiana for 18 years. He desires to serve as a teacher to equip national pastors and Christian workers to start churches that reach their own people for Christ.
We want to help the Streits with their travel and personal expenses. To give to this love offering either designate your check or use the offering envelope in the chair pocket.
After today’s service, we will have a salad and soup potluck. You are welcome to join us for fellowship as well as have an opportunity to visit and get to know the Streits.
Next Sunday we will have Fellowship Sunday with refreshments served between Sunday School and Church.
Please contribute items to the annual Christmas Child Boxes ministry by Samaritan’s Purse. Our Awana children will pack these boxes on Nov 8th. You will find the list of desired items in the foyer. Please indicate what you can provide.
Our ladies are planning a time of fellowship for October 28th at 11AM that will have a pineapple theme. A luncheon is also planned. Please make sure to mark your calendars and plan on joining us.
Special:
The Streits’ twins Felicity and Fawn sang “The Power of the Cross” during Sunday service, October 01, 2023. Written by Stuart Townsend and Keith Getty, it is a song about the events of Good Friday. You can watch the video directly here.
Sermon:
Andy Streit spoke to us about his desire to serve the Lord in Peru. He described problems in Peru, the Catholicism in Peru suffers from syncretism, the melding of the old, pagan religions with Catholicism into something that is not God honoring nor Christianity. He proposes educating Peruvian pastors through seminary training. His plan is accepted by Baptist Mid-Missions. You can read further on this and support it here.
