CHILDREN Our well supervised Nursery and Children’s
programs offer a warm and caring atmosphere.
Our “JAMTowne” entrance is in the lobby next to
the coffee bar!
COMMUNION Jesus gave this memorial to remind us of the price
He paid for our sins – death on a cross. Christians
are invited to meditate on God’s love and grace as
they participate.
OFFERING We give out of our love for God to support His
work here on earth. If you are a guest we
welcome you to express your gratitude but do not
feel pressured.
DECISIONS At the end of the service an invitation is extended
and is an opportunity for you to walk forward to
accept Jesus as your Savior, rededicate your life,
transfer your membership or ask for prayer and
spiritual counsel.
BAPTISM Immersion in water pictures the death and burial
of our old life without Jesus and the beginning of
our new life as His follower. It is the moment
when God’s grace unites with our faith providing
forgiveness of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit.

THIS WEEK’S ACTIVITIES
TOWNE SOUTH STUDENTS HALLOWEEN PARTY
STUDENT MINISTRY
Towne South Students is all about groups!
Being in the right group is important! We want all our
6-12th grade students to be connected to our student
ministry; and one of the best ways to do that is to get
plugged into a Small Group! All of our groups meet on Sunday morning from
10-11 AM. Join a group today!
“BIG GROUP” is our Wednesday evening programming for
middle and high school students. We start the evening
with a meal ($3) and as promptly as the meal ends, we begin Big Group. We play
some interactive games, have a time of worship, participate in an interactive and
practical lesson from the Bible, and enjoy time together! Our current study series
is called, “Who Am I?” and is all about finding our identity in Jesus.

NEW STUDY IN LADIES’ SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS TODAY!
Mark your calendars and make plans to be a part of
Towne South’s 2018 Christmas Celebration! The theme
for this year is “Ring in the Season!” A combined group of
children, teens, and adults of all ages will share the
message of Christmas through music, song,
choreography, dialogue, and yes, bells! To make this
special presentation more available to our
community, there will be three performances: Saturday, December 8 at 4:30 PM
and Sunday, December 9 during both the 8:45 AM and 11:15 AM services. Our
children will play an intricate part in this presentation, and need to attend
rehearsals on Wednesday evenings from 6 PM to 7:30 PM. The rehearsal
schedule is available at the JAMTowne Board, as well as The Hub.
PLEASE NOTE: Wednesday, October 24 is the final day to sign your child up to
participate in this production. We will begin assigning solo parts and costume
fitting after that date.
As always, we need many extra hands to help with this big
endeavor! We will need stage managers, snack organizers, costume
and set designers, etc. Please let Sissy know ASAP if you are willing
to help in any way. If you have any questions or concerns, please
see or contact Sissy at [email protected] , call 338-2248 or call or
text 619-2592. Thank you!

wonderful opportunity for us to have some good ole
family fun and reach out to our community! Those
who are bringing food, please have it here, hot and
ready, by 5 PM so we can get it set out on the tables.
Those who are helping with any other activities such as
games, hayrides, inflatables, or Trunk or Treat, please
be here at 5 PM to get further instruction. Trunk or
Treat volunteers will need to park in the roped off area in the back parking lot.
There, you may set up and be ready to hand out candy at 7 PM. WE STILL NEED
MORE TRUNK VOLUNTEERS!

trunk or treat volunteers. Stop by and sign up today! Also, flyers are available at
The Hub to take and give as invitations to friends, family and coworkers.

We have taken a number of our men to recent
ENCCMF meetings. They are most informative
of what is happening in the new church plants
and are a time to enjoy a good meal and
fellowship. Old Ford Church of Christ is just
north of Washington, NC. The meal is at 7 PM. We will not be able to drive the
bus this time, as it will be on the Sight and Sound trip.
There is another trip being
organized to Wilmington, NC to help
with the relief effort there. Our
Student Minister, Corbin Kuhn, is
organizing this trip and will have
more details once he knows what
the number of volunteers will be. Here is what we do know right now:
Where: Partnering with Venture Church in Wilmington. We will be staying in a
house owned by Cape Fear Christian Church.
When: Plans are to leave at 7 AM Tuesday morning and return Friday evening.
What: We will be performing tree removal, helping people remove ruined
items from their home and ruined insulation from crawl spaces and attics, and
building temporary storage sheds, etc.
If you are interested in going on this trip, text/call Corbin at (757) 407-2355 or
email him at [email protected].
Today, the Ladies' Sunday School class
will begin a 13-week study of Hebrews, a
letter written in the late A.D. 60's. "After
accepting Jesus as their Messiah, Jewish
Christians continued to be zealous for the
temple rites and sacrifices, thinking that
their beloved city was about to become
the capital of the world under Messiah's
reign." Instead, they were to receive the
shock of their lives when the Roman army would wipe out Jerusalem and the
temple in A.D. 70. This letter will prepare these Christians (and us) to rejoice in
the "better" way to God. The ladies meet in Room 109 (left of stage) at 10:15 AM.
Twenty-one Towne South’ers will leave
Thursday morning, October 25 at 7 AM
aboard the Towne South bus for
Lancaster, PA to see the stage
production of “Jesus” at the Sight and
Sound Theater. The group will return on
Saturday, October 27. Jonathan will send a detailed itinerary by email to each
participant. If you have questions, please see Jonathan or call/text him at
312-3232. The group seeks your prayers for protection and travel mercies during
their journey!
Morgan Family Dentistry will be offering free fillings
and tooth extractions for all veterans on November
9, 2018, at their office located at 153 Worth Guard
