The Eureka Home Auxiliary would like to thank the Goodfield congregation for their prayers, financial support, and help. This year’s Family Fest was a great success. We praise God! When we approved the changes to our bylaws a couple of months ago, a portion of the packet that you were given to approve was accidentally left out when it was sent to the state of Illinois. By state law, to add that portion to our bylaws and constitution that is registered with the state, we must vote again. They consider this a new submission even though we approved the bylaws and constitution in its entirety. We plan to vote again on the same packet right after morning church on October 26th. We will give opportunity for the Sunday School teachers to vote as well. If you remember, we need 60% of the membership to vote to make it official. Thank you for your patience yesterday as we tried cafeteria style church lunch. Here are a few points to remember: · We are not insinuating that we are switching to this style of serving lunch. It has been suggested numerous times as many other AC churches are offering it, and we need to be open to the possibility. · As we analyze our facility and try to plan for the future, we need to see current and potential pain points. Some things have to be experienced and not just imagined. · If we choose to offer this style of serving in the future, it will be decided by a committee using the information that we collect this fall. Constructive feedback is critical. Please be aware that any feedback that is shared will be copied into a shared document word for word for various committees to sort and organize. · Until a building committee chairperson is designated, you can send your feedback to Bro. Jeff Wiegand at successbyservice@gmail.com .

Rochester Guesthouse Caretaker Need This announcement pertains to the Guesthouse that was established in 2012 for use by those who are receiving medical care in Rochester, Minnesota. The operation of the guesthouse depends on a resident caretaker of the home who doubles as the host to guests staying about 1/3 of the evenings. Over the years, many have helped fill this role on a temporary or longer-term basis. We sincerely thank Brother Jim and Sister Marcy Knobloch for filling this need the past year amid renovating the home to add a lift to the lower level. As of November 1st, 2025, there is an opportunity for others to serve in the Guesthouse caretaker capacity. The Board of Directors of the Guesthouse is requesting anyone with a heart for and an interest in this work to make it known. The Board desires for someone to take up residence in the Guesthouse and operate it as the caretaker and host, ideally for an extended period. Anyone who feels led to pursue this opportunity should make it known to their local Elder or lead minister. If there are specific questions regarding this position, they may be directed to any of the Board members listed below. We ask for your prayers as the Guesthouse goes through this time of transition. The Rochester Christian Guesthouse Board of Directors Bro. David Messner Winthrop (Chair) Bro. Marti Knobloch Lester (Secretary) Bro. Kent Mogler, Minneapolis (Treasurer) Bro.
