Pastor's Notes

Many of you have been praying for the Perkins Family for the last few years as Scott has been battling brain cancer. The family has been through many trials, as Katey had cranial surgery while still an infant, Scott was in Walter Reed for several months as he was diagnosed with brain cancer while on active duty with the Air National Guard. Recently, Scott was medically discharged from the military. Now, he is taking the last of his chemotherapy sessions and they have seen some improvement. However, Katey is preparing to have another cranial surgery on December 21. Shelly is also having some surgeries scheduled. If you would like to send them a card, please e-mail me for their address.

CHANGE!!! Our New Year's Eve Open House will not be at the parsonage, but will instead be at our Maranatha Campus. Please bring some board games that you enjoy playing, and some snacks to share. If you have a favorite ping pong paddle, there is a ping pong table. There is also a fusball table for those of you who like table soccer. Lord willing, we will set up a television and movie player to watch a movie for those interested - I just bought one that I need to screen first. As the New Year approaches, we will pray it in, and celebrate as a church family. We will still start at 7pm and if you choose to leave before midnight, that is not a problem.
