＊Thanks　& Announcements＊

Today’s message is by Pastor Kitazawa on Luke 7:36-50. The theme is “The Lord’s gaze”.

This afternoon Pastor Ino is preaching at Arakino Church. Please pray for the growth of the church.

There will be a prayer of blessing for the children next Sunday during the worship service. Let us pray together for our children. On November 23 is Cleaning Day and hanging Christmas decorations.

The message will be given by Missionary Park on Nov 16 and by Missionary See Huang on Nov 23.

Report of the summer donations: The total contribution was 155,000 yen, and from that amount 100,000 yen was set aside to repay the church bond. A summer donation was given to IBF pastors and missionaries (15,000 yen per family) and to Missionaries Park and Missionaries Ino (10,000 yen each). In total, the church used 165,000 yen. Although we were not able to reach our goal of 200,000 yen, we are very grateful for everyone’s contributions.

The Tokyo diocese of our denomination will have a gathering on November 24 at IBF. The cost for joining is 500 yen as we will have a meal to fellowship together.

Let us honor our Creator God. At least 5 minutes before the worship service starts, let’s arrive early to prepare our hearts in prayer.
