Timor-Leste It Is Written Mission Trip
– HOW YOU CAN HELP. So far there are 22 people signed up for the Timor-Leste trip, scheduled for Nov. 10-Dec. 2, 2024. But your help is still needed in the following areas; 1) financial support – the needs both physical and spiritual in Timor-Leste and huge, but getting there to provide the help is costly. We have many volunteers, but still need donations to help fund the travel and materials. Our goal is $20,000, and so far we have a little over $3,000. Please mark your donations for the "Short Term Mission Trip Assist." On a printed envelope, write it in under the Local Offerings section; on the Adventist Giving website, it is one of the choices under "Local Offerings." 2) We are looking for another dentist and an optometrist or ophthalmologist. 3) Other positions such as speakers, children’s program leaders, and support staff are still open. For more information please contact Royce Snyman at 517-331-1419.

Summer Sanctuary/Temple review. The review starts everyTuesday, 5:00-6:30 pm.  We will meet before the Tuesday night meeting. This review is especially for new members. But any church member is welcome.
Bring your bagged supper and meet in Fellowship Hall. We will eat together and then explore the wonders of the sanctuary.
