We are thankful for our convert Grace Schmidgall.  After experiencing repentance and conversion she feels at peace with God and man.  We now have the opportunity as a church to bring encouragement or any concerns we may have, as she awaits baptism.

We are collecting for Apostolic Christian Life Points in the month of December.  Contributions can be given to Bro. Chuck Massner or placed in the special collection box. .

We have been holding regular meetings with men and women at the Jail and Halfway House for 6 years now. Many of them express appreciation to our church for taking the time to encourage them at a time when they are down in life. It is time to make the schedule for next year, so we would like to extend an invitation to others in the church to join in this ministry. If any brother or sister feels moved to join either the Halfway House, Men's Jail group, or Women's jail group, please reach out to Brothers Mark Schmidgall, Seth Hartter, Jordan Wagenbach, or Bill Massner. Also feel free to reach out to any one of these brothers if you have any questions about the ministry.

Thanks to all members who promptly returned the trustee nomination ballots for the upcoming annual business meeting. Members who wish to participate in the nomination process are asked to place ballots in the mail no later than tomorrow. If any member did not receive a ballot, please contact Bro. Kyle Wagenbach.

There is a need to replenish the HarvestCall European Church Building Fund. Over the past several years, numerous requests for repairs to aging facilities have consumed the existing fund. The Balingen and Briedenbach Germany congregations both need larger church buildings due to Ukrainian refugees and additional brethren from other impoverished countries that have settled in Germany.  This has created a need to replenish this fund. If you feel moved to support this work, donations may be made through the HarvestCall website or by check made out to “Apostolic Christian Church” with European Building Fund in the memo given to Bro.Ryan Frank.
