The choir will rehearse Sunday at 5pm, and then we’ll meet for our evening worship service at 6pm. Childcare is provided for the worship service.
The week of November 27 is a "week off" from our ministry schedule. We’ll resume with our regular ministry schedule on December 7 with the Wednesday Prayer Meeting (6pm) and Bible studies (6:30pm). We’ll study chapters 23 & 24 in the study book, Galatians 6:7-10, 11-18, Study 13 Questions).
Here’s Wayside's monthly ministry schedule:
• 1st Week – Wednesday Prayer Meeting (6pm); Men's, Women's, Youth Boys, Youth Girls, and Children's Bible Study (6:30–8pm). Childcare will be provided. All groups study the same book of the Bible. We are currently studying the book of Galatians (for December 7, look at Ch. 23 & 24 in the study book, Galatians 6:7-10, 11-18, Study 13 Questions).
• 2nd Week – Small Groups
• 3rd Week – Friday Night Youth Fellowship for middle school and high school
• 4th Week – Small Groups
If you have any questions or would like to be involved in a small group, please reach out to our Ministry Coordinator, Ken Harmon.
This year for the SMSS Christmas Basket project, we’re providing 60 containers of 3-qt laundry soap (we currently have five) and 60 jars of 48-oz peanut butter (we currently have nine). There is a collection table in the Fellowship Hall. If you’re planning to bring a donation, please do so on or before December 4! On 12/9 (Friday) SMSS needs a transporter to take items from the office to Nolan and set up help. On 12/10 (Saturday), SMSS needs area captains, a greeter, and a cafeteria floater. Also needed are some extra hands for loading cars on Saturday. Interested volunteers should contact the SMSS office at 886-5982 to sign up.
