Lottie Moon Christmas Offering When Hunter Street partners with the International Mission Board (IMB) and gives to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering, missionaries are able to share the gospel with unreached people groups, train believers to start new churches, assist in the planting of new churches, show Christ’s love to those in distress, and, most importantly, work to spread the kingdom of God. According to IMB’s 2013 Annual Statistical Report, our missionaries shared the gospel with 1.7 million people, trained 23,000 nationals to start new churches and helped plant 6,200 churches. While those statistics are exciting, there are still 4 billion people who remain lost. More giving will allow IMB to send more missionaries so that more people are reached for Christ! Will you give so that others may hear? Look for Lottie Moon envelopes in the Worship Guide on Sunday mornings in the coming weeks. street lights schedule at the street Sundays 8:00 am n n 9:30 am n n 10:00 am n n 4:00 pm n n Wednesdays 9:00 am 3:45 pm 4:45 pm 6:15 pm n n n n n n n n 6:30 pm n n 6:30 pm n n 7:30 pm n Bible Study Morning Worship Bible Study Morning Worship Bible Study Morning Worship Adult Choir Rehearsal Children and Student Choirs & Discipleship E.S.L.– East 300 Joyful Singers–West 205 Fellowship Meal–Gym Childcare– Birth-age 3–Tadpole Park Preschool– Music & Missions K4-K5– Toadsville Music and Missions— (Grades 1-4)—In the Children’s Building Route 56 Fuel (Grades 5-6)— Route 56 Room E.S.L.– East 300 Hunter Street Students (Grades 7–8) – Student Building Hunter Street Students (Grades 9-12) –Student Building Wednesday Night Life discipleship classes Choir—Music Suite Orchestra—Worship Center Hunter Street Library n 8:30 to 11:45 am Sundays Wednesdays n 4:00 to 6:30 pm Hunter Street Student Building Wednesdays n 4:00 to 8:00 pm The BookStore at Hunter Street n 8:00 am-12:30 pm Sunday n 4:00-7:00 pm n Closed Monday n 10:00 am-6:00 pm Tuesday Wednesday n 10:00 am-8:00 pm n 10:00 am-6:00 pm Thursday n 10:00 am-5:00 pm Friday n Closed Saturday Be a Neighbor Over 250 people have moved into a new house in our community in the last 90 days.
