Weekly Update! 9/14

JOIN US THIS SUNDAY AT 10:15AM - We look forward to continuing in our current teaching series, "Sojourners" as we journey through 1 Peter together and learn more about what being a follower of Christ looks like in our daily life. 

WE NEED YOUR HELP! - We are cleaning out the Hospitality House and God's Garage THIS Saturday, September 16th. If you are available to help move things out of these two buildings, we would greatly appreciate it. We will work from 9am-1pm with lunch provided. If you have any extra large cardboard boxes you can donate, please bring them! Contact Ben Richert if you are interested in helping. 971-338-8561. 

LIFE GROUP REFRESH SEPTEMBER 17th 6:30-8:00PM - You are invited! This event is for those already in a Life group AND those who would like to join a group. We’ll connect with people, eat some dessert, and get ongoing clarity regarding Life Groups. What are Life Groups all about? How can Life Groups help us grow spiritually, live like family and be witnesses together to those who don't yet know Jesus? Please let us know you’re coming HERE, or by calling or emailing the church office, so we can be sure to have enough dessert. 

NEW FRIENDS' LUNCH - Following the worship gathering on October 1st, we will be hosting a lunch for those who are newer to Faith church within the last few months. We want to get to know you, and want you to get to know us! Sign up HERE by 9/27 so we can be sure to provide enough food and childcare if necessary. 

NEW DISTRICT LEADER ELECTED! - Faith Church is part of the Pacific Northwest District of the EFCA (Evangelical Free Church of America) and months of work to bring in a new District Superintendent has come to a successful conclusion. On Saturday, August 20th, our District voted to affirm a call to Rob Chadwick to be our District Superintendent. Please join us in praying for Rob and his wife, Beth, as they transition to the Pacific Northwest!

UPDATE RE: SALE OF THE NORTH ACREAGE - An offer from the Websters (neighbors to the north) was accepted and the North Acreage is now in escrow. We'll give another update when escrow closes in October. Thanks for your continued prayers for a smooth process.
