News from the RLC Mission Endowment Fund Board
ESave the Dates!  Between services on October 7th and October 14th, Attorney George Snead will be conducting a two-part series on the importance of having a will.  We're talking about that document that you leave behind when you pass away.  You know, the one that is current, clear, and expresses your desires for your survivors.  Don't think you need one?  This workshop is for you. Don't know how to go about revising your existing will? This workshop is for you. Don't know where to start?  This workshop is for you.  Plan ahead.  Mark your calendars and learn how to make peace with that gnawing guilt about your nonexistent or out-of-date will. Call Judy Thompson at 540.972.3757, or email her at:  judithathompson@gmail.com if you have any questions.
 
Another Donated Car helps the Mission Endowment Fund Build Its Base
Special thanks to Tom and Carol Bailey who recently parted with Carol's beloved Altima. Our team member, Wendy McArtor (kudos to Wendy!), facilitated the sale of the car, and the Baileys donated the proceeds to the RLC Mission Endowment Fund.  What a wonderful and generous way to help grow this important ministry.  Although we are really not in the used car selling business, we will be happy to tell you how to go about making this kind of contribution to the Fund. Just call Judy Thompson, chair of the Mission Endowment Fund Board, at 540.972.3757 or email her at:  judithathompson@gmail.com if you have any questions.

luther"...Faith is God's work in us, that changes us and gives new birth from God (John 1:13)... Yes, it is a living, creative, active and powerful thing, this faith. Faith cannot help doing good works constantly. It doesn't stop to ask if good works ought to be done, but before anyone asks, it already has done them and continues to do them without ceasing."
