It's time for our Annual Pecan Sale Fundraiser! As you know, George and Anna Mary Thomas, have annually sold pecans as a fundraiser for our mission work at The Baxter Institute in Honduras. Since they have relocated to Magnolia, TX, we are assisting them with the fundraiser by taking orders for them. The pecans are being sold for $14.00 per pound and will be available on Sunday, November 9. You may place your orders by contacting Mable Charles at 713 562-6252 or email wcharlesjr1941@comcast.net.

Our youth will be responsible for preparing and serving dinner at the Impact C of C on next Sunday. We are asking ALL junior and senior high school students to report to the Christian Life Center on Sunday morning during Bible Class to help prep for the dinner. See Alford and/or Jelka Powers.
