WOMEN’S SINGING DEVOTIONAL — Saturday, October 19 @ 9:30 AM
Join us for our 2nd Annual women’s singing devotional on October 19 from 9:30-11:30 AM at The Farmstead on the River (1565 Green Drive Canton, GA 30114).  This morning will be “rich” in fellowship, worshipful song, prayer, quiet meditation, and Sisterhood!

SPECIAL CONTRIBUTION — NOVEMBER 10
We will be taking up our annual special contribution in five weeks! Last year we collected around $180,000, which was about 15 times our weekly contribution. It was very encouraging! To date, we have distributed all but $5,000, and hope to send the remaining amount to help out in Mozambique by the end of the month. As in the past, you will have the ability to let us know how you would like your donation spent. Choices will include local benevolence, international benevolence, adoptions, disaster relief, assistance for sister churches, and our NextGen Fund. More specific details on the options will be outlined in the next few weeks.  In the words of Paul, I hope we will “excel in the grace of giving…for you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.” 2 Corinthians 8:8-9

PATH WOMEN’S RETREAT: CLING — November 1-3, 2019
You’re invited to join us at The 2019 Path Women’s Retreat! This year our theme, “Cling”, is focused on Deuteronomy 13:4! There’s something about that word cling – so many of God’s commands can be satisfied from a distance, but clinging puts us in His face. It’s personal. It’s needed. With so many things competing for our attention, distractions that can be both good and bad, this weekend will be centered around making the personal choice to prioritize our pursuit of our intimacy with God. Click here for more info and to register.
