    Mens Ministry Prayer Breakfast

    On Oct 22-8:30am, WLBC 2nd floor,

    we are having a prayer breakfast at

    the church. We will have good old

    fashioned breakfast food...no quiche

    at this breakfast. The theme is: Are

    You Living the Christian Lifestyle?

    A man and woman had their car sto-

    len one night. A few days later it

    was returned with a full tank of gas,

    no damage and a note saying we

    are sorry we took your car. The cou-ple was so thankful they went to

    church on Sunday and put a little

    extra in the offering plate. They

    came home only to find their home

    had been robbed and everything

    was gone. Had the couple known

    they would be robbed wouldnt they

    have stayed to defend their belong-

    ings? Had they known that the theft

    of the car would start a snowballeffect, wouldnt they set the car

    alarm? Had they known wouldnt

    they? How about you? If you knew

    when Jesus was returning, wouldnt

    you pray more, study more and wit-

    ness more? Matthew 24:43-44

    elicits a powerful question; So when

    Jesus comes what will you be doing?

    With October being WorldHunger Month, you may be inter-

    ested to know this informationfrom an article in the New York

    Times.

    Grocery bills are rising through

    the roof. Food banks are runningshort of donations. And food short-ages are causing sporadic riots in

    poor countries through the world.

    Youd never know it if you sawwhat was ending up in your landfill.

    As it turns out, Americans waste an

    astounding amount of food anestimated 27 percent of the food

    available for consumption, accord-

    ing to a government study and ithappens at the supermarket, in

    restaurants and cafeterias and inyour very own kitchen. It works

    out to about a pound of food everyday for every American.

    Grocery stores discard productsbecause of spoilage or minor cos-

    metic blemishes. Restaurantsthrow away what they(cont. p.3)

    Common Thread

    Christ was common to all

    in love, in teaching, in

    tender consolation, in

    generous gifts, in merciful

    forgiveness. His soul and

    his body, his life and his

    death and his ministry

    were, and are, common

    to all. His sacraments and

    his gifts are common to

    all. Christ never took any

    food or drink, nor any-

    thing that his body need-

    ed, without intending by

    it the common good of all

    those who shall be saved,

    even unto the last day.

    sumers toss out everythingfrom bananas that have

    Chinese leftovers. In 1997, inone of the few studies of foodwaste, the Department of Ag-

    years before, 96.4 billionpounds of the 356 billion

    pounds of edible food in the

    United States was never eat-en. Fresh produce, milk, grainproducts and sweeteners

    made up two-thirds of thewaste.

    This information is a fewyears old but certainly we allrecognize the waste in ourown home, even with our best

    efforts not to waste duringthis economic crisis.

    With that said, please

    consider the suggestion(bolded) above and put that

    extra grocery money saved in apurple World Hunger Fund

    envelope.

    CondolencesPlease pray for and extend

    sympathy to:

    Leon & Amy Hassenpflug in

    the passing of Leons uncle,

    Walter Stern, Jr.

    cery money to the World

    Hunger Fund? That maysound like a big request but

    if we dont over buy thesenext four weeks for our own

    homes, we can give that ex-tra money we dont spend?

    It seems like there aremainly two reasons why we

    over buy. First, we buy in bulk

    to save on cost per pound/

    item. Second, we dont want tohave to go shopping again,

    wasting gas and our time, sowe buy plenty to choose from.

    Inevitably, these two reasonscan cause us to have to throwfood out or have extra of

    something that we are tired ofeating. So we undermine ourown plans to save.

    Deacon of the Week: Micah Camarata 434.426.3312

    The Red-faced UsherWhen an elderly woman asked a church usher to seat her close to the pulpit, he tried to talkher out of it. If you sit up front, you wont be able to sleep, he said. She looked the ushersquare in the face and asked, Do you know who I am? No, I dont, he replied. Well,stating firmly, Im the preachers mother. Fully embarrassed, the usher asked, Do you

    know who I am? No, she said. Good! whispered the fellow. Sit anywhere you want.

    Many times we are asked, Who is my

    deacon?

    To help you, we will list the Deacon of the Week

    and his list of families in the WLBC Bulletin

    ENewsletter. There will be a complete list posted

    on the bulletin board near the church office. This

    complete list is alphabetical by your last name.

    We hope this will help you know who your deacon

    is for the year. If you have any questions, please

    feel free to contact the church office.

    An Old Testament prophet wrote the following words

    about Jesus: He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,

    yet he did not open his mouth; like a lamb that is led to

    the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is

    silent, so he did not open his mouth.

    Who wrote those words?

    A. Amos; B. Jonah; C. Jeremiah; D. Isaiah

    (Read chapter 53, verse 7)
