Midweek Fellowship — our study this week is titled “Where Did Evil Come From?” How can the existence of evil be explained? Are we born with an evil propensity? Can we place the blame on Adam & Eve? Does having a choice mean that evil is inevitable? The meeting begins at 6 p.m. on Tuesday in the church Board room.
VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED — in our Tiny Tots, Primary and Junior Sabbath School classes, as well as to help with our Sabbath morning breakfast (once a month). If you are willing to donate your time and talents, please call the church office.
THE EAST COUNTY WOMEN’S FELLOWSHIP GROUP — meets at 10:30 AM each Wednesday morning. For location information please call Georgia Gilliam at (619) 443-5813.
LOCAL MISSION PROJECT — Our Church Board has voted to be a partner with the Paradise Valley Church in their Refugee Assimilation Program. We will be accepting CLEAN clothing and WORKING household items to help these families establish homes here in San Diego. (NO junk please) Donations may be brought to our church library room. Thank you for your help!
COMMUNITY SERVICES — meets each Tuesday morning from 9:00 AM to 12 Noon. If you are interested in sewing baby layettes please join us. We supply Sharp Mary Birch Hospital with these baby layettes, which are given to needy mothers. We need help and yours would be much appreciated!
FOOD COLLECTION — We have placed a container in the foyer to receive donations for the local food banks. Please bring canned goods, bags of rice, beans, etc. to donate to this very worthy cause. NO glass containers!
CHURCH ORGAN CAMPAIGN — We have created a “Matching Fund Campaign” for a new church organ. The church will match, dollar-for-dollar, all donations to the Church Organ Fund. The present church organ has served us well for many years, but we would like to upgrade to a modern organ with all of the capabilities that such an organ can provide. Mark your offering envelopes “Organ Fund”.
PARENTS ROOM IS A QUIET ROOM — Just a reminder that our “Parent’s Room” at the rear of the Sanctuary is for parents with very small children. The Parents Room is intended to be quiet so that babies can sleep. Please do not leave your children in this room. It is not a child-care room. Thank you for your help in this matter!
CHURCH WEBSITE — Did you know that your friends can watch our Worship Hour LIVE each Sabbath at www.tsdachurch.org? Or that Pastor Gary has a weekly message on the homepage? Or that there is a book review on the site? Well, now you know!
