Announcements & Upcoming Events.

Tonight at the Windsor Church we will continue our Bible study with the Book of Acts. There will also be a Worship/ Church event organizational meeting to discuss future plans for our churches. All are welcome to attend. Bring your Bible and your ideas.

There is also a Bible study Wednesday evenings in Windsor at 7:00 pm that is on the Book of James. All are welcome.

We have designated every Wednesday Morning between 8:00-9:00 as a time of prayer for both churches. Both churches will be open at that time, but if your schedule does not permit you to spend this time in the sanctuary, please try to take a few minutes on Wednesday morning wherever you are and spend some time in conversation with God.

October 18 is Cleanup Day at Windsor from 8:00 to 12:00. Bring buckets and rags. Come and stay as long as you want! Coffee & doughnuts provided.

With the coming of Charge Conference in November we will be looking at the Administrative and Committee members of the churches. Please consider how you may service your church in the coming year.

Please pick up an October/November calendar at the back of the church. If there is information to be added to the calendar, the bulletin or the newsletter, please get it to the office as soon as possible.
