@ 10:30 AM in the Conference Room

     Wednesdays from 10:30-11:30 AM, in the Conference Room. This year we will study each upcoming Sunday's four lectionary texts: Old Testament, Psalm, Epistle, and Gospel. There will be study sheets distributed in advance containing each of the scriptures.

     I am excited about this because the group's insights will help me prepare for the upcoming Sunday's sermon based on these same texts.

(This last session has been moved to Thursday, November 1, at 6 PM, in the Art & Soul classroom.)

      Our 4th Annual Silent Auction will take place the week of November 5-9. Our goal this year is to raise $15,000, which will help us purchase new technology equipment and repair and upgrade some of the existing computers. The Auction is our main fundraiser during the year which enables us to offer some enrichment opportunities that tuition alone cannot cover. During the past couple of years, auction proceeds have allowed us to create a new library, purchase new furniture, display boards, and light tables, and offer Mandarin to all our 3, 4, and 5 year olds.

       The children of our Preschool would like to invite all our church members after the worship service this Sunday in the Fellowship Hall to a "sneak peek" of the amazing items available at the 4th Annual Silent Auction taking place this week in the Fellowship Hall.

Here is how you can help:

   -- Make a donation of an item or a service you provide, to be auctioned. We have a great list of suggestions available in the Preschool.

   -- You can bid, bid, and bid! All items can be previewed on line at ndbcpreschool.org, or in person during the week of November 5. Winners will be announced on Friday, November 9, at 1:30 PM.

   -- Tell others about our auction and invite them to bid along. Many cash and carry items will be available too.

       The mission of the Preschool is to lay a foundation for lifelong learning in the loving and safe environment that Northside Drive Baptist Church offers. With your help we can achieve this and so much more.

November 7 & 14

       As a continued celebration of our 60th Anniversary over the next twelve months, we will be privileged to see the work of twelve visual artists from our congregation. We will have works by a wood turner, a painter, a quilter, a photographer, a weaver---all on a Sunday morning, before and after worship, in the Narthex. Look for the notices in the Pinnacle and the eNotes, and celebrate the visual arts at Northside Drive Baptist Church.
