Weekly Update: September 11, 2024
Word from the Pastor:
I pray this weekly Newsletter finds you all well this week. This week I just wanted to take the time to remind everyone of the church meeting immediately following service. Before we get into the nuts and bolts of church business, I'm going to take a few minutes to talk about who the church of Jesus is, and what that might look like for us in 2025. Can't wait to see you all this Sunday. Enjoy the rest of the week.

Upcoming Events
Congregational Meeting and Meal: Sunday, September 15 immediately following service
Please join us immediately following the service on September 15 for our church wide business meeting, as we discuss what’s going on in the life of the church. This church belongs to all of us, and we want to hear your thoughts and suggestions! LUNCH WILL BE PROVIDED – so come fellowship and let’s talk about how we can best be Kingdom people in Driftwood!
Trustee Nominations and Elections: Nov-Dec 2024
This November, we will be asking our members for nominations for two Trustee positions that will be open in January 2025. Following the nomination process, we will have elections, to follow in December. Please be praying for God’s guidance as we fill these important positions.
Social Hour: Sundays at 10:00 am
Our social hour is a great way to get to know each other over breakfast tacos! We meet in the Education Building at 10:00 a.m. before the 11:00 a.m. church service.
Volunteer Opportunity
Thanks to Ben Roberts for serving in the lector position! We continue to need volunteers for this position, preferably for monthly commitments at a minimum. Responsibilities on Sunday mornings include welcoming the congregation, announcements, leading the scripture reading and the Nicene Creed. Please be in prayer about this need for our church. If you are interested in this volunteer opportunity, please complete this form or contact a trustee or the pastor.
Dripping Springs Helping Hands Pantry
September donation requests for the pantry are crackers, boxed cereals and refried beans (pouches preferred). We accept any non-perishable food items at any time, as well as diapers and wipes. You can place your donations in the bin in the Education building. The Pantry is very appreciative of our donations. Thank you, Dave, for making the deliveries.
