Good afternoon, everyone.
Here is the link to yesterday’s service for anyone who missed it https://youtu.be/_IKvM6U5t60
IMPORTANT DATES THIS WEEK:
- There will be no Sweet Teas or Trivia on Thursday as it is Thanksgiving. Happy Turkey Day!
- Sunday 11/27 – Bring a wrapped gift ($10.00 max) and a good snack/lunch type item to share while we decorate the church for the Christmas holiday, work on our float for the Junction City light parade and have a white elephant gift exchange. Due to the number of people we hope to have participating, rather than drawing numbers & doing the gift exchange the way we discussed on Sunday (since that could take a really long time) we’ll be playing another type of game to pass the gifts around & then all open them together. (We won’t be decorating on the evening of 11/30 as was previously stated.)
DATES TO REMEMBER:

REMINDERS:
I will continue to add any prayers received on request slips during Sunday service to the prayer wall on our website unless the slip specifically says that it is not to be posted on-line. The prayer wall is available 24/7 for anyone to add a prayer. Although the prayer wall is on Eugene’s website it is also open for Salem members to use! Once at https://gcriverroad.com/ hover over the ANNOUNCEMENTS heading at the top of the screen & then click on Prayer Wall when it appears. Scroll to the bottom of the prayer list to enter your request into the provided fields. The name field is required; however, if you would like to add a request anonymously, you can enter “anonymous” there. You will still have to enter your email address, but it will not be posted anywhere. Once you have filled out the four fields (name, email, prayer request & select to share), click submit to post your request to the wall.
