				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just a friendly reminder to remember to bring in your unwanted eye glasses. There is a basket in the lower lobby for your convenience. We take adult and children&#8217;s glasses, sun glasses and reading glasses. We also appreciate eyeglass cases which make mailing more convenient. We pass all of these on to M.O.S.T. ministries which in turn distributes them throughout the world to people who would not be able to see without your donated glasses. Thank you to everyone who has donated in the past and those who will continue to donate to this mission in the future.</p>

That&#8217;s right we need 3 people for each service to wander around, help people in and out of cars, find their way, and keep an eye on things. Free training to all who volunteer and you&#8217;ll get a real cool &#8220;Hospitality Team&#8221; button to wear. Our goal is to have enough volunteers so you&#8217;ll only need to do it once per month. See Chad Clark for details. Hurry, with bad weather coming, we can use lots of Help!</p>

A special collection will be taken October 19th for those of you who want to participate but were not able to pledge large amounts. Pledges will be called in soon and the project will move for-ward so that when warm weather comes next year, we will be ready for it. PRAISE GOD!!!!!<br />
A more detailed report will come in next month&#8217;s newsletter.</p>
