Christmas Shoe Boxes
How many children need to be reached with God's message? Just by filling a shoebox, we can take the opportunity to open a door and share the Gospel of Jesus with children and their families around the world. When distributing the shoeboxes, Samaritan's Purse provides the Gospel in over 60 languages. Boxes and Brochures/Labels will be made available soon! Filled shoeboxes and postage will be due back on Sunday, November 10th. This year let's challenge ourselves to each fill TWO more boxes than we did last year... Together, we can reach the goal of 100 boxes!
Christmas Card Collection
It is already time to begin preparing for Christmas. The WOM is here to help.
The Pine Crest WOM will be collecting Christmas Cards addressed to “Active” members again this year to distribute.
This year the cards will be due by December 1st and be distributed by December 8th. Donations are accepted for delivery service.
Donations Needed!
Calling all women to please donate to a worthy cause, as soon as possible. All you have to do is give. And what you can give is 1 hour. Just 60 minutes, one time per month. This is such a small fraction of our busy schedules. Can you make time to give? The Women's Missionary Union "Women On Mission" needs you.
We meet at 8 AM on the 3rd Sunday of each month. We've been praying for you to join us. Come and see what we're about.
There have been many members of W.O.M. that have passed on. And, echoing the sentiments of this year's church-camp theme... "Who's gonna fill their shoes?" Will you?

Adult Choir Ideas?
To be able to practice new songs to glorify our Lord, we really need as many people as possible to come to choir practice. I know that there are many things that can get scheduled on Wednesday nights. So, I'm asking for your help. How can choir practice be more accommodating to the most people?
Some suggestions have been to hold choir practice right after church one or two Sundays a month and leave by 1PM. Another is to have choir practice at 9AM one or two Sundays a month then go right into Sunday School at 9:45.
What ideas do you have? How can we best work as a team for His honor and glory? Think about it, pray about it, and let me know. We can keep our May choir practices on the first and third Wednesdays at 7PM.
Then, after our Summer-break, we can resume practices based on the best ideas... Thank you for your time and consideration. Let's keep on singing!

Pastors Perspective
Spring Revival will soon be upon us and I pray we all will be prepared to follow the will of God. Lift up the preachers in your prayers, Ruel, Pete, Joe, and Shannon...but most of all let's lift up Jesus so that the lost will be saved!!!
On a similar note, Easter falls on the last day of this month. May we all lift Him up the entire month long! He arose that first Easter morning, so keep Him high and lifted up in our prayers and in our praise.

February Pastors Perspective
1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and havenot charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned , and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.4 Charity suffereth long , and is kind ; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself , is not puffed up , 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly , seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked , thinketh no evil;6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.8 Charity never faileth : but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail ; whether there be tongues, they shall cease ; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away . 9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.10 But when that which is perfect is come , then that which is in part shall be done away .11When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.12For now we see through a glass, darkly ; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known . 13And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
