WelcomeGuests!
Please see page two
for important information
about todays service and
how to get the most out of
your visit with us.
Volume 10 Number 27
By Mike Rose, Senior PastorWe are excited that you chose to join us for our 2008
Thanksgiving Celebration! Although it is commonly
accepted that the first Thanksgiving celebration was in
1621, it was not until 1863 that President Abraham Lin-
coln proclaimed the last Thursday of November to be a
national day of Thanksgiving. According to History.com
website for The History Channel, during the early twenti
eth century, Thanksgiving Day became more focused on
sports and leisure than its name would suggest. In fact,
it became the start of the Christmas shopping season. So
important was this month-long shopping extravaganza
to the nations retailers that in 1939 President Franklin D. Roosevelt had
Thanksgiving moved from the last Thursday to the third Thursday of Novem
ber to extend the shopping season an additional week. This change created a
great deal of controversy. In 1941 Congress settled the dispute by declaring
the fourth Thursday of each November to be Thanksgiving Day.
Regardless of when Thanksgiving Day is, I think its great that our nation
has officially set aside a day to give thanks for the blessings we enjoy. We
truly are a blessed people! I realize with a war going on and our economy inserious trouble, we may be tempted to think that we have little to be thankful
for. However, if we each take time to consider the reality of our lives, I believe
we would agree that despite difficulties and trials, we have much to be thankful
for. It is my prayer that todays service will cause you to take stock of the
tremendous blessings that God has bestowed upon you and your family. That
every day, but especially on Thanksgiving Day, you will pause to recognize the
wonderful benefits that are yours because of Gods grace to you. James 1:17,
NKJV says; Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes
down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of
turning. May your Thanksgiving be filled with many remembrances of Gods
blessings to you and many offerings of thanks for His tremendous blessings.
Every good gift and every
perfect gift is from above, and
comes down from the Father of
lights, with whom there is no
variation or shadow of turning.James 1:17 (NKJV)

Shoes for ChristmasOur tree is trimmedwith
paper shoesand waiting for
you today in the foyer. Stop
by and select the name of a
child for whom you are willing
to provide new shoes. These
children all live in the Homes
of Oakridge right here in Des
Moines.
There will be volunteers
at the tree to help you register
your selection. Then you may
either purchase tennis shoes
yourself ($15 or less) or simply
donate money for us to pur-chase shoes for the child. The
shoes should be returned to the
church by Monday, December
15 (in the shoe box, but NOT
gift wrapped, please).
The shoes will be distribut-
ed at a reception for Oakridge
families after our Christmas
celebration on December 21.
Then the righteous will
answer him, Lord, when did
we see you hungry and feed
you, or thirsty and give yousomething to drink? When
did we see you a stranger and
invite you in, or needing clothes
and clothe you? When did we
see you sick or in prison and
go to visit you? Then the King
will reply, I tell you the truth,
whatever you did for one of the
least of these brothers of mine,
you did for me.
Matthew 25: 37-40

ern coast of Spain to strengthen and develop leadership.

through events that challenge them to fully abandon their
lives to God. Carolyn went on many FFC mission trips as a
teen and is the daughter of Mike and Jan McCourt.
Praises:
The dollar has gained some ground on the euro which has
been a great help.
This summer they had a record number of youth attend their
10 day camp and have received words of encouragement
from parents and pastors regarding the changes seen in theiryouth.
Prayer Requests:
For their teenagers, Austin, Reid and Aaronthat Gods
hand of protection would be over them and that the Spirit of
God would move and work in each of them.
That God would use their family and home to bless others.
For the students in their nine month programthat God
would heal and give direction to each one over these next
nine months.

Jesus Christ to every ethnic group inSiberia. As a team they are involved recording messages

church planting and disci-
pleship are the focus of their ministry at Christian Outreach

Ghana are bearing fruit, though it is more challenging for
those working in the Muslim north.

to COF church planters. Micro-enterprise loans remain a success in expanding busi-
nesses, allowing new loans to be given and people to support

Mamprussi and Kusasi tribes.
For the witchcraft, voodoo and superstitions to be put to rest
and the people brought to the true Savior.

OTHER NEWSOering Envelopes
Offering envelopes for 2009 have been received and will be
available for pick-up in December. If you do not currently use
numbered envelopes, please consider doing so. The accuracy and
efficiency of recording financial gifts is much greater and you
can save yourself the bother of writing your name and address
on the outside of the envelope. Please call Karen or Cindi in the
church office to request that a number be assigned to you so that
your box of envelopes will be ready along with the rest.
Board NominationsOur constitution calls for a period of time near the end of
each year when the current board leadership solicits congrega-
tional recommendations of individuals qualified to serve on the
church boards. We will be accepting your input on this between
now and December 1 in preparation for next years election of
board members.
If you would like to recommend someone for consideration,
please submit their name, in written form, as well as the position
you believe they are qualified to serve. These may be submitted
to Tom Hefner in the church office. You may also e-mail sugges-
tions to [email protected].
Thank You!As of Wednesday, November 19, we have received
500 shoe boxes filled with gifts for Operation ChristmasChild. Now their journey begins! Please pray for the children
who will receive these boxes and for the Samaritans Purse staff
and volunteers who are responsible for the shoe box shippingand distribution.
Shoe Box Amnesty ProgramIf you took a prewrapped shoe box and
were not able to finish filling it for Operation
Christmas Child this year, please return the
box to the Welcome Center or the Childrens
Ministry office. Its okay, really. We understand that happens
sometimes. No questions asked and you may remain anonymous.
Thank you!
