Iglesia Fundraiser September 27th!
New Day’s College and Career group is hosting a Luncheon Fundraiser after service on Sunday, September 27th in the Family Room. All donations from the fundraiser will go toward making improvements to their meeting place.

The Japan Team
is asking for donations specifically for a Thanksgiving celebration they will host during their stay. Please consider donating just a few dollars so we can bless the Sagers with their first Thanksgiving in many years!  Please put your donation into an envelope and mark it for “Japan Thanksgiving.” Thank you!!

New Day is hosting a fun fall event at VerHage Cider Mill on Saturday, October 17 from 10:30 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. We will begin with a hayride at 10:30, then enjoy a picnic lunch (bring your own or purchase food there), cider and doughnuts, and some group games. New Day will provide for the hayride, the cider and doughnuts (additional quantities may be purchased at a discount) and the games. VerHage also offers optional children’s activities, including a zip-line, pony ride, and bouncer for an additional fee.

Two Services — WHAT???
Yes, we’re thinking about multiplying New Day’s Sunday morning experience to accommodate more guests, and to provide better ministry for our children.  This will present many challenges and opportunities.  We want to give everyone an opportunity to ask questions and share comments on Tuesday (9/29) at 6:30 PM here at the church.  If you have questions or comments please come.  The purpose is not to have an answer for everything, but to hear out your concerns and incorporate your ideas into finding creative solutions for the challenges that arise.

The Bible and Homosexuality
A forum will take place at the downtown Kalamazoo Radisson Hotel on Monday, September 28, 2009 from 7-9 PM. This free event will be held in the main floor ballroom. Six area pastors, representing “both sides” of the issue, will participate, and there will be an opportunity for questions from the audience.

Lost and Found
Katie Duke is looking for a green square pitcher/vase that went home with someone with flowers in it after Nancy & Al’s wedding.  Please return it to the church or call Katie Duke.
