11/6/22 Sunday’s Sermon By Nick Perez

Blessed Assurance; Love is a Verb

1 John 3:16, ESV – By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.

Treat-tacular was a big success!

1,048 of our neighbors came through the line.
We gave away:

about 300 English Bibles
about 100 Spanish Bibles
200 information packets (1 per family)
250 Grief information packets
200+ Suicide Prevention flyers
1,250 lbs of candy
Over 50 people asked for prayer.

And we couldn’t have done it without you! Many thanks to all that pitched in to help
with this event.
