Our traditional Brookmeade Thanksgiving Potluck meal will be on Thanksgiving Day at 2 pm. We ask everyone to bring something to share. Bring your family and/or friends; all we need is a count – and your food contributions – to plan with. Please contact the church office (615-352-4702; Brookmeade@comcast.net) or sign up in the fellowship hall. Volunteers to help set up or clean up would be appreciated! Thanks!
As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday we want to take some time think about gratitude. In Ephesians 5: 20 Paul writes, “giving thanks to God the Father at all times and for everything in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.” We should give thanks to God for we have received much from the Creator’s hand. We also want to think about giving thanks to those around us for they have also given us much. Come join us Sundays at 9:15 to spend some time thinking about gratitude.
There are signup sheets for this year’s Room in the Inn dates on the Fellowship Hall bulletin board! This year we will be hosting RITI on these Sundays: Nov. 24th, Dec. 29th, Jan. 26th, Feb. 23rd.
The first Sunday of every month is COW Sunday (Contribute Our Wealth). Everyone is encouraged to bring non-perishable food for Second Harvest. All money donations are split between Second Harvest and Heifer International. Brookmeade doing its part to alleviate hunger!
Project CURE Volunteer Group is scheduled for Sat. Nov. 2nd from 9:30 am – 12 pm (2300 Clifton Ave, 37209). We will be sorting medical supplies to be sent to hospitals in developing countries. Everyone is welcome, including newcomers! See you there!
