OTHER ITEMS TO NOTE

 LOTTIE MOON: Prayer guides for the 2017 Week of Prayer for International Missions as well as Lottie Moon Offering envelopes are available at the Welcome Center through the end of January.

REMINDER FOR END OF THE YEAR CONTRIBUTIONS: A contribution is effective when delivered; this means that a check deposited in the church offering in January of 2018 cannot be included in 2017 even if it is backdated to 2017. There is one exception – checks that are mailed and postmarked in 2017 are deductible in 2017 even though not received until 2018. Non-mailed end of year contributions need to be in the church office by midnight on December 31st.
