Collections:

• Pastor John is collecting used Bibles for a program called Bibles Behind Bars. They donate Bibles to prisons in all fifty states and even will rebind those in disrepair. Please bring them in and place them in the box on the pew in the sanctuary hallway. 
• Our Youth Group is collecting and recycling pop cans. This money is placed in their general fund. They can be placed in the back room to the left in the Fellowship Hall.
• Extra/used Sunday School material is taken by the Free Methodist Church and Lillyville COG accepts extra devotional materials. These can be place in the black container in the narthex. Jamie Frederick distributes them.
• Clothes are donated to Lilyville COG and are distributed monthly along with their free food program. Contact Donna Jones if you have any to donate or place them in the room to the right of the Fellowship Hall.  

 Post Hospital Meals   The EOB Team is restructuring their Post Hospital Meals program. Our goal is to provide a meal on three subsequent days for any member who has been hospitalized. We would like to have a rotating list of members who are willing to take a meal. If this is an area of ministry you feel called to please let Donna Jones know so you can be added. She would notify you when there is a need along with any dietary restrictions or preferences. Thank you for your consideration. 

 Visitation Team   The EOB team in coordination with the Coordinating Team is looking to put together a team of people willing to do hospital visitations during this time that we are between full-time pastors. Hospital visitation provides a unique setting to minister to people who find themselves with a greater dependency upon friends, family, church, and their faith.

   Those who prepare themselves to minister in hospital settings and to the sick will discover that a visit, a Scripture, a spoken word, or prayer will bring hope and comfort. Lives can be forever changed from your obedience to the Word of God and compassion for others.
