Friends and parents are encouraged to come and hang out. The address is 177 S Main St, North Hampton, OH 45349.

Ladies’ Bible Study

OCTOBER 28TH AT 6:30PM
The Ladies’ Bible Study has been on a long break, but that is getting ready to change! The first meeting for this school year will be Monday evening, October 28th at 6:30PM in the fellowship hall under the auditorium. (You can enter the building from the back if stairs are an issue.) We have a wonderful group of women who gather, and we would love to also welcome you!

Coats and Clothing for Tecumseh Local Schools

OCTOBER FOCUS
We’re collecting items for children in need right here in our community. The focus will be on NEW coats (sizes 8-10, 10-12, 12-14 up to adult sizes) and NEW or GENTLY USED sweatpants or leggings (sizes from about 6—10/12) for elementary students. Though it is not as great a need, they could also use shirts (sizes from small to youth XL) and tennis shoes (youth sizes for school age kids).

Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes (Samaritan’s Purse)

MISSIONS FOCUS
We’re also collecting Christmas gifts for children around the world. There is information available in the foyer down by the gym. Since we deliver the boxes as a group, it is best to put the $10 donation that is required for each box in the offering plate by giving cash or writing a check to the church and marking accordingly. The deadline for shoeboxes is Sunday, November 17th.

Hearing Assistance

PLEASE LET US KNOW
We have personal headphones to help you hear more clearly during the service. If you need to use them regularly, a pair of headphones can be assigned to you. Please see Stan Mahurin if interested.

ABOUT THE GOOD NEWS
If you want to know more about Jesus and what his life, death, and resurrection have to do with you, please feel free to stay after the service and speak with Pastor Curt; he‘d love to talk with you. Or you can use the connection card located in the back of the pew to let him know you’d like to talk. Let us know the best way to contact you, and he’ll arrange a time to meet. You can also request more information about Jesus or our church by filling out a connection card online at fbcnc.churchtrac.com.

Questions?

ABOUT BAPTISM OR MEMBERSHIP
If you believe that Jesus is your Savior and Lord but you’ve never publicly confessed your faith and joined a church through baptism, please consider taking this initial step that Jesus wants for all his followers. You can speak with Pastor Curt after the morning service. Please also let us know if you’ve already been baptized and are interested in becoming a member of our church.
