We had several able to be at our monthly men’s meeting last Sunday evening.  We have a couple of issues that are really needing to be dealt with.  First is getting things set up to get our roof replaced before all the winter weather sits in on us.  One of the problems is how to get our bank loan to cover all the costs.  John Harris was able to investigate and learned we can incorporate as a “Limited Liability Corporation” as a non-profit organization under which we can easily make loans with the signatures of those listed as trustee/directors.  This will not, does not affect us as a “church” concerning taxes or other things.  All it does is allow us to be legally organized so as to make it easier to take care of physical business for the church without putting any individuals in any danger whatsoever.  It also will not put us in the situation of violating our Biblical beliefs in any way.  The forms were delivered to the bank for their approval this last week.  The second thing was the replacing of our sign out on highway 51 going towards Tahlequah.  The Oklahoma Department Of Transportation has sent us a notice that our sign now violates the newer laws for signs of non-profit organizations and must be torn down within the next 90 days or they will come in and tear it down and fine us.  We have investigated and worked on this.  Doug Kelley has worked on this and has gotten us a new sign made that fits within the new requirements.  We will be trying to get the new sign up in the next few days if it is not already done by today.

Also, as was in the bulletin last week, we will be having our planning session for 2016 coming up in just about a month.  Brethren, here is where we need every family here to check your calendars for next year.  Check them for school starts and closings, for your possible vacation times or special activities you may know of now.  We realize that many things cannot and will not be planned until later next year.  But, we need all we can get together to be able to plan the churches activities—gospel meetings, VBS, etc.  We really need your input so that we can get these special activities planned now and have plenty of advance time to plan, develop and advertise them.  VBS in particular needs a lot of advance planning, especially for the teachers to get all their material together.  We may not be able to know exactly  WHEN to have it but there will also be some times we can know for sure NOT to have them, this we really need your help with.
Brethren, the men are trying very hard to really bring things together but, they can’t do it all by themselves.  These are just some of the areas in which we need every member of this congregation involved to some extent.  One thing that every single one of us can do is “PRAY!”  Pray or our men, pray for our plans, pray that we will find the right things, the right activities and the right methods to bring us all closer to God and Christ and each other.
 
Until next week, I love you all,

Dan
