On Sunday, October 16, we will celebrate Generosity Sunday and collect our annual special missions contribution to support churches in Europe. Our mission and purpose in Christ are threefold: save the lost, strengthen the saved, and serve those in need. To spread the gospel in hard-to-reach places, we donate toward planting new churches and strengthening congregations. Our collective goal in the NW Mission Center is to give 10x our weekly budget. Please pray, and then decide in your heart to give as much as you can in good conscience and in faith. For more information and inspiration about the European Missions Society please see www.euromissions.org

Kids Contribution: We encourage parents to include their kids in giving, even if it is giving a bit of pocket change—it can help teach a child’s heart and help them to have reason to celebrate too!

Northwest budget:                                   $15,500
Collected:                                                     $15,403
