2021 December 26 Announcements
Our collection for the month of December is for the General Fund.
It’s time to sign up for our small group Bible studies. For this study we will be using the book called "Respectable Sins". This 9-week study addresses clusters of specific “acceptable” sins that we tend to tolerate in ourselves or have blind spots to such as jealousy, anger, judgmentalism, selfishness, and pride. As the study moves through the scriptures, this study also offers a message of hope in the profound mercy of the gospel and the transforming grace of God as the means to overcome our “respectable sins.”
Click here to sign up to participate in the study. You can specify your preferences as far as when and how you’d like to participate. Even if you plan to do the study on your own, please fill out the form so we can order a book for you. Please fill out your information by January 2nd so we know how many study books to order. If you have any questions please see Bro. Nate or Sis. Brittany Zeltwanger.
It’s time for our gas card giving to those who could use a New Year boost. Please contact Sis. Dawn Maloney by text (309) 472-6067 or email (maloney.dawn@gmail.com). Dawn will need the name and address of the recipient. We do not need to know the circumstances of those we send the cards to, anyone who could use a bit of encouragement qualifies. The cards will be mailed early January. We also have cards available throughout the year if someone you know is in need.
We plan to have a New Year’s Eve church service this Friday at 7:00 p.m. This will cancel our Wednesday evening services this week.
Brother Mike Grimm plans to be with us on Sunday, January 2nd. He will give an “Update on HarvestCall USA ministries and encouragement to missional living” during the afternoon service.
We’d like to invite our church family and friends to an 80th birthday celebration for Sis. Marie Kieser on January 4th. Please join us Tuesday, January 4th from 6:30 - 7:30 p.m. at the Gathering Room. Contact sisters Rhonda Zeltwanger, Emily Sauder or Melissa Rokey with questions.
Family Hymn Sing will be January 9th at 6:00pm at the Fellowship Hall. There is a sign-up sheet at the message center to bring bars. For questions see sisters Jenise Wiegand or Rita Bauman.
Dear Goodfield church family,
The Tom Stoller family wishes to extend our heartfelt gratitude for the many prayers, kind words, cards, texts, calls, and acts of kindness since Dad’s death. We are so thankful for the love of our church family and praise Jesus for the confidence we have in Him, knowing that we will see our Dad and Grandpa again one day in heaven.
We love you all,
Darrell and Jennifer and family and Paula Stoller
