This week’s lessons: Daniel 7:9-14, Matthew 26:26-27
Hello friends and acquaintances around Otsego-Plainwell,
Thanksgiving service with songs and prayer on Wednesday, November 24th at 6:30
So many of us in the area have lots of reasons to be thankful this year. We’ve got decent health, jobs, kids back in school, time for family and friends, and so much more.
If that’s you, I hope you have more than just a little thanks. I hope you have genuine gratitude. Do you know the difference? A little thanks says the quick “thank you”. Genuine gratitude makes life change so that people can’t help but see you’re thankful.
On the other side, many of us might have very little reason to be thankful. We’ve lost family and friends, jobs, finances, reputation and so much more.
If that’s you, you’ll want to work a little harder to find an attitude of thanksgiving.
Whoever, you are, Jesus gives everyone reasons to give thanks.
Join us for the thanksgiving service.

Advent 2021
Advent means “coming”; it also means "expectation".
Starting November 28th, for 4 weeks before Christmas, Peace will spend time expecting Jesus’ coming.
This Advent as you meditate on God’s Word, may he match the expectations of your heart to his own so that his return is nothing but the greatest bliss, joy, pleasure, and satisfaction for you.
If you don’t have an Advent wreath, get one this year. Church will be glad to help you get a beautiful, simple Advent wreath for only $15. Email church@peaceotsego.org or call 269-694-6104
On Christmas, we gather to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Please join us in the celebration!
