1. This Sunday, Pastor Leonard will be answering the question “Why?” People frequently ask “If God is so good, why do bad things happen to good people?” We will explore that subject together.

6. A note from Nancy … “I have been hearing from those who love doing the Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes and that clearance sales abound. Now is the time to get toys and supplies at dramatically reduced prices!”
7. We continue to welcome new members to Jubilee. If you have not joined our fellowship, I encourage you to consider church membership. We will have a class soon; however, if you plan to join, please complete a Membership Application Form. They are available at the Welcome Center.
8. We have a few folks who are ready to be baptized. Scripture is very clear that this is what Jesus asked us to do … to make a public statement of our decision to follow the LORD. You may have been saved several years ago, but it is not too late to be baptized. If you are interested, you can pick up an application form at the Welcome Center.
