The Vine and the Branches
Leader: 15 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the
gardener.
All: 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no
fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he
prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful.
Leader: 3 You are already clean because of the word I
have spoken to you.
All: 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No
branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the
vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in
me.
Leader: 5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you
remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit;
apart from me you can do nothing.
All: 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a
branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches
are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.
Leader: 7 If you remain in me and my words remain
in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for
you.
All: 8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear
much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.
Leader: 9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I
loved you. Now remain in my love.

A big thank you to Mary Zach for her hard work and dedication that went into planning the Fall Festival, and many thanks to everyone who helped in any way. We had a great turn out, I was told 64, and fun was had by all!
Enjoy the Pictures!
Patsy Shipley set up the awesome photo wall!
Pastor Donna approved!

Old churches must not simply stand
as monuments to the past but as spiritual grandparents that have
invested in the future by passing on their life to others and releasing
their offspring to form new congregations. ~ unknown
