October 11, 2024 Addendum

Hello again, Grace Vineyard Family and Friends.

I apologize, but I left out 2 very important announcements in my weekly update dated October 11.  If have since updated that email, but if you read it before 11pm on Friday, October 11, you’ll have missed these 2 items.  So here they are…

A Very Special Luncheon for David and Heidi Coombs

We have a very special after church luncheon scheduled for October 20th.  When we started our Missions Program almost 20 years ago in 2005, among our very first missionary partners were Wycliffe Bible Translators David and Heidi Coombs.  They are officially retiring, celebrating over 50 years in Missions Work and Bible Translation! What an incredible life and legacy they are leaving.  I can only imagine the joy we will be celebrating in eternity with them and the many who heard the Gospel and responded because they had a Bible written in their own language.  We are planning on starting that celebration now!  After church on the 20th of October we will have a special lunch celebrating David and Heidi, and we hope as many of you can attend as possible.  We could use some help to put this party together, so please contact Sharon Evans to volunteer. See her in church this Sunday!

2nd Sunday After Church Prayer

This coming Sunday is the 2nd Sunday of the month, and that means it’s time for our after church prayer meeting.    I can’t emphasize enough how essential prayer is to everything we do.  God has designed it to be so.  For our church family to flourish in every way that God has called us, we need to bring our requests to Him.  I hope some more of you will join us right after church to seek the Lord for His direction, His favor and His abundant provision in all that He has called us to be and do in our city. It will be roughly from 11:45am to 1pm.

Hopefully those 2 events were the only ones I missed!  Thanks for reading this Addendum to my previous email.

God bless you each richly,

Ron Ohst
