generosity in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana."

 What an amazing morning! The faithful came out on a picture-perfect autumn morning to learn, worship, and share!  We were blessed to share this day with several guests including two students from Wesley House @ the University of Montana. They were accompanied by the Rev. Todd Scranton, the pastor of Grace UMC and the Wesley House chaplain.

Our children's ministry continues to grow in size and in faith, both the children and the adults leading have been blessed with this vibrant ministry. The adults learned about Islam through "Christianity & World Religions" and shared their thoughts on the world's second largest faith.  Next week they'll be learning about Judaism.

The chimes brought to the worship the old favorite hymn, "How Great Thou Art." We are blessed and believe God is pleased with the musical offerings shared each week during worship.

Pastor Charles preached on Luke 16:19-31, the parable of the Rich Man & Lazarus.

Thanks to Carol Goffe, Marcia Prather, and Vicki Vernon for the amazing fall-themed refreshments we enjoyed during our fellowship time. Carole Koval has been doing a super job in securing folk to host our time following worship each week.
