I hope that you’ll join us this Sunday evening at 6:00 for our church wide Thanksgiving meal! Please bring a side dish and dessert to share. Trinity Baptist will be joining us for the meal, so please mingle with them and make them feel welcome! Also, just a word of exhortation, fellowship meals are an ideal time for you to build new friendships within our Church Family. Let me encourage you to sit by people you don’t yet know and walk away from the meal with new friends!

Make sure to pick up the 2024 Proposed Budget this Sunday. I am grateful for the wisdom and work of our Finance Committee. The task before them was to find a way to reduce next year’s budget so that it lines up with our projected giving for the year. Our Committee had difficult decisions to make and I’m grateful for their willingness to carefully consider the best way forward financially for our church. As you pick up a copy of the proposed budget, if you have questions, you can visit with me or one of our Finance Committee Members - Brian Denton, Sandy Stark, Debbie Wright, Bryan Sperle, John Brown, and Chuck Marquis. We will vote on the proposed budget on Sunday morning, December 10th.

It is a blessing to serve along with the EBC Family,

Pastor Clint
