New Life Fellowship | Topeka, IN

December 5, 2019

ANNOUCEMENTS:

THIS SUNDAY:

  • We will be talking to Renee Helmkamp during the morning service about her calling to begin a full time ministry in the Dominican Republic. Renee is currently in the process of raising support so that she can begin a three-year term with Students International. She will be serving the Lord by ministering to children through special education. New Life is excited to send one of our own into the mission field! Please prayerfully consider how God is calling you to support Renee with your prayers and financial resources. Details will be given on Sunday on how to join her support team.
  • We will celebrate the second Sunday of Advent and Pastor Drew will begin teaching his sermon series entitled, “In Him”.

OPPORTUNITIES:

Poinsettia Orders

New Life is providing an opportunity for you to purchase a poinsettia in honor of a loved one. The poinsettias cost $10 and will be displayed in the sanctuary for two weeks before Christmas. You will be able to take your poinsettia home on Dec. 24th. Please sign up at the info desk.

 

Kids’ Country Christmas Project

We will be collecting books and puzzles for the Boomerang Backpack program this Christmas. These gifts will be going home with the students (ages K-6th grade) as a gift before Christmas break. There will be a collection box in the Kids’ Country hallway. Please bring your donations by Sunday, Dec. 15th.

 

Topeka Food Pantry

New Life is in charge of filling the Topeka Food Pantry for the month of December. Many families in our community depend on this help from the Food Pantry! You can support them by donating non-perishable food items and supplies to the pantry. Please place your items in the large Christmas box in the foyer. Contact Vern Miller for more info (260) 350-1893.
