 MEN’S CHOIR -  No men’s choir this week or for the month of October.

  

SUPPORTING SAMMIE GARTON -  Many within our church family have asked how they can support Sammie Garton as she continues her healing journey through leukemia. As we stand with Sammie and her family in prayer, we also recognize the significant financial burdens that often accompany ongoing medical treatments, travel, and time away from work.
 

For those who feel led to provide financial support, contributions may be mailed to:
 

Adams State Bank
649 Main Street
Adams, NE 68301
 

Please make checks payable to Adams State Bank and include "Sammie Garton" in the memo line. The memo is very important to ensure the funds are properly directed.
 

Most importantly, we ask that you continue to lift Sammie and her loved ones in prayer, trusting in God's faithfulness, comfort, and provision during this difficult journey.

"Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." Galatians 6:2
