Dear First Pres, 

   This Sunday we're launching a new Education Hour class: Discipleship Group Primer. It's a bit different than our traditional Education Hour offerings, but I hope this letter will give you the information you need.

Dear First Pres, 

Dear First Pres,

It was a great launch back into our normal schedule this past Sunday. Thanks again for all your flexibility over the summer. I appreciate the way our folks who normally sit in the balcony were willing to sit on the main floor. And I appreciate our second service folks who came for worship at 10:15. And I appreciate all those who worked to make Connect Time a success.

Dear First Pres, 

Dear First Pres,

Dear First Pres,

   Two items of good news today:

   First, yesterday Pastor Andrew Brunson, for whom we've been praying while he spent the last two years in a Turkish prison because of false charges, has been moved to house arrest. This is a great step. Praise God! Now Andrew can be with his family and friends as he awaits his next hearing. However, we still need to pray for the Turkish government to drop the charges so that Pastor Andrew can continue in his ministry. For your prayer, you may read more about Andrew's current situation here.
