Attention Church Family and Visitors!! We would appreciate it if you would sign the Friendship register prior to worship or during the service.  Visitors, we would appreciate it if you would fill out your preferred contact information so we can recognize your presence with us--we promise not to bother you.  FRCers, by signing the register and by passing it to those near you as necessary, it helps us to keep our records up to date and it helps us to get to know each other better.  Thanks for taking the time to register your attendance with us. 

Our Mission of the Month offering for September will go to support Dave and Deb Eernisse in their work with Wycliffe Bible Translators. Dave is the Human Resources Director for SIL's Int’l Language Services teams serving in the US and around the world. These teams total approximately 500 staff working in a variety of language domains such as translation, linguistics, software technology, publishing, media services and many more.  Along with the staff position, Dave’s team also manages 250 open positions presently being recruited. Dave’s HR department staff consists of an HR Manager, a Leadership Training and Development Coach, a Healthy Teams Member Care Coordinator and soon to be added a Recruiter. The HR work includes processing new candidates into and out of their SIL assignments, managing department managers and training and equipping leaders to manage and lead their staff well.  Deb works to keep language services teams, and their staff, functioning smoothly and effectively.  She also works in International HR located on the Dallas Linguistic Center next to their home.  The Eernisse’s are thankful for our continued prayers, financial support and encouragement.The amount received to date is $629.72.  The offerings received in October will be going to JW in his ministry with Arab World Media.  See next week’s bulletin for more information about JW’s ministry.
