Operation Christmas Child
Shoeboxes are now available for pick up at the church in the front foyer. However, you may want to use one of your own shoe/boot boxes to fill with approved items and gifts to bless those kids around the world as they also hear the Good News about Jesus. Now is a great time to find those special gifts and back to school items. Remember to check to ensure your gifts are approved for shipping. Go to https://www.samaritanspurse.org/operation-christmas-child/what-goes-in-my-shoebox-suggestions/ to see what is allowed. Collection week is November 16-24 2025 so you have plenty of time. But don't put it off!

You can also build a shoebox and pay for it "On-line" at https://www.samaritanspurse.org/operation-christmas-child/buildonline/.

Prayer Times
There is a prayer meeting every Tuesday morning at 11:00 AM. Enter the building up the ramp and in the gym door and come through the gym to the youth room. We gather before the Sunday morning service (9:30 AM) as well as before the Wednesday night (6:30 PM) bible study for open prayer as God leads and directs.
The first and third Sunday evenings (5:00 PM) we all gather for open prayer in the sanctuary.
The second and fourth Sundays evenings (5:00 PM) the men gather in the sanctuary for discipleship and prayer together.
We need you to pray with us. We pray together for the needs of the body here in Fortuna. We pray for those around the world. We pray for those students that are attending or have attended "Jesus Pizza" that they would come to know Jesus as Lord and Savior.
