ANNOUNCEMENTS
WELCOME VISITORS! We are glad you chose to worship with
us today. Please fill out a visitor’s card from the pew and place

Assisted hearing devices are also available. Parents are

AN ELDER’S MEETING will be held today, at 1 p.m. in the

A “RELAY FOR LIFE” informational lunch will be held

THE “BACKPACK PROGRAM” is sponsored by the
Messenger’s Class, to provide food items for children at risk in
our community. We furnish 10 bags each week to Sandhill
Elementary. If you’d like to help by providing individual readyto-eat items (pudding/jello/fruit cups, cheese crackers, poptarts, grits, oatmeal, juice boxes, cereal cups/bars, etc.), you
may either bring these items to the church office, or leave them
in the Messenger’s Classroom in the FLC.
THE COMMUNION PREPARATION LIST for 2015 is available
in the foyer for volunteers to help prepare communion on
Sunday morning.
BETHANY IS INVITED to join in celebrating the wedding of
Jennifer Bridges and Brian Scott on Saturday, February 28, at

RSVP to 770-846-6601.
THE MESSENGER’S CLASS has a trip planned to the Top of
the River restaurant in Anniston on Saturday, January 24. We’ll
leave the church at 5 p.m.
FOOD PANTRY DRIVE – The “Item of the Month” for our
Food Pantry for January is peanut butter and jelly. There is a
bin in the foyer to deposit these items. Thanks for your help,
and remember if you know of someone in need, either send
them our way, bring them to the pantry, or take items to them.
THE WOMEN’S SHELTER item needed for December is
cereal (large bags or boxes.) There is a bin for these items in
the foyer.
NOTE OF THANKS: “Want to thank all of the people of
