The rally will begin promptly at 9:30 and will end no later than 3:30. The event is FREE but all participants are asked to bring a non-perishable food item (such as canned goods, dry cereal, etc.) to bless a local Christian family in need. Lunch will be provided. Kevin Parr will be leading us in worship. Come for the faith, fun, fellowship, and food.

THANKSGIVING SERVICE AT PORTLAND: The attendance at this year’s 83rd Thanksgiving Service was 257 and the offering totaled $4,231.75. The chorus again performed superbly and had large number of PCS & SCC alumni join in on the final song. Brother Johnson did an impressive job of tailoring his message fit to the occasion and PCS specifically. It was a uplifting and joyous event. —- Houston Earl Cockrell
Kentuckiana Bible College (Ervin Denkins) We have a new web site. Larry Miles has developed it and will be maintaining it. Please take time to check it out. A word of thanks for your support for Kentuckiana Bible College. This semester, KBC has three full-time students at the Louisville campus, and several part-time students at three other satellite sites: Waterford Church of Christ (Taylorsville, KY), Harrodsburg, KY and Denham Springs, Louisiana.

Many of your congregations will be planning your 2014 budgets. Please keep KBC in mind and make a way to help us monthly or quarterly. We encourage you to join with others in a “Pick-A-Sunday” fundraiser drive. Pick a Sunday and take up a special second collection.
