Congregation Thank You Notes

It was so nice to receive all the cards on our birthdays. We are so happy to be part of the family of

God. Thanks a lot! - Norm & Marge Van Ommeren

Thanks for all the prayers, visits, and delicious food that everyone brought. We were so blessed and

touched by the outpouring of love and support. - Perry & Val Dykstra

MRC Family, we cannot thank you enough for all the love and support you have shown us since the

birth of our daughter, Gracelyn. We appreciate all the homemade gifts and delicious foods we

received. Most of all we appreciate the prayers said for Gracelyn when she was in the NICU. We are so

grateful to be apart of such an amazing church family! - Taylor, Jess and Gracelyn Schuetz

Missions & Partners—Thank You Notes

Dear MRC Family—Thank you so much for your generous support. Erin & I are seeing some of the fruit

that God is producing at UNI through your generosity. Nate, Christian, Zac, Corben, Abby, Carly, and

Annie are all freshmen in Erin’s and my Bible studies who either recently received Christ or are seriously

considering it! We thank God for his abundant provision through you! God bless. - Jonathan & Erin Haverdink

Dear Congregation of MRC—We praise God for the 2017-2018 Legacy Plan gift of $4,379 Sioux Center

Christian has received from your congregation for the last school year. We are so very grateful for your

partnership as it helps fulfill our vision that every child is treasured, trained, and transformed as they

learn and live God’s story. Thank you! - Josh Bowar and the SCCS family

Dear MRC—Our hearts are full of gratitude as you continue to pour your love into the survivors; both

women & children, of intimate partner violence. Your generosity of $390 translates into at least 18-20

Bibles for children & women or it translates into at least a year of once a month community meals, or it

translates into purchasing a few more items to add to the care bundles new guests receive upon their

arrival. Once again, thank you for your prayers and supporting Whispers of Love, Hope, and Joy Inc.

financially! - Deb Rensink & the board members We apologize if we inadvertently missed anyone

Life Groups On The Move

MRC Life Groups are a crucial component to life at MRC, where we

can be known and cared for, grow in faith, serve others, and have fun living

life together.

Lots of people at MRC are enjoying the fruits of that Life Group purpose

statement. In 2017, MRC had 12 Life Groups with 117 people involved. In 2018,

there are 25 Life Groups with 216 people involved.

Here is what some Life Group people are saying: “I like my Life Group because I am

getting to know new friends.” “I like my Life Group because my group has been praying for

me and encouraging me while I am going through a tough time.” “It felt good to draw an

encouragement card and send it to a friend in need.” “We have some goofy people in our

group, and they are fun to be around.”

By mid January the kick-off study for Life Groups will be completed and most of the

groups will begin a new study. That would be a great time for many of you who would now

like to become part of a Life Group to join a group. Stay tuned for more details about how

you could join a group at that time.

Good News Circle

The past several years, Good News Circle has

taken our November meeting to do a service

project. We make fleece tie blankets that we

donate to area agencies to hand out at their

discretion. Fleece blankets have been delivered

to The Bridge, Hope Food Pantry and The Family

Crisis Center.

The Dykstra Family

In September our family sold our home in Brandon, SD and left life as we knew it to join YWAM.

This organization has training campus designed to equip and send out people into all nations to

spread the gospel through specific vocations.

We have been in training in Kona, HI ever since and are preparing to leave for Jinga, Uganda,

Africa where our family will live for 2 months.

We will volunteer our time to build homes, serve the homeless, care for the orphans, lead worship

services, assist in the schools, among other things.

We thank you for your help in our Africa expenses! For further information you can contact us via

Facebook.

“Dear friends, you are being faithful to God when you care for the traveling teachers, even though

they are strangers to you….”

There will be a tip night fundraiser for the Dykstra family at the Sioux Center Pizza

Ranch on December 3 from 5:00-8:00 p.m.

Come Worship & Serve at the Refuge!

The Refuge worship venue was started to open up worship

space in the sanctuary for visitors and those seeking MRC as

their church home. The Refuge is a second space to worship

while maintaining one morning service at MRC.

If you haven’t experienced worship at the Refuge, come and join us for a

Sunday this month. Some families find this venue to be a very welcoming

and family friendly environment.

Even though there has been a team that has initially lead and served in the

Refuge for the first few months, we are also looking for families or Life Groups

to help with greeting, serving, cleaning up in this worship space. If this is a

place you would be willing to serve at MRC please contact Greg Haverdink

or Bob Cleveringa.

Winter Work Project 2019 This year’s work project will be in Labelle, Florida where they had

hurricane Irma damage from this past year. It will be during the last week in

February from the 15th to the 23rd. We will be working with World Renew and

it will be headed up by Rob and Sharon Schelling. What I do know at this

time is that it will be anything from new construction to demolition.

But what we do need is volunteers who will be willing to help! No skills

required, just the willingness to lend a hand! So if you are interested there is a

sign-up sheet at the information center or you can contact me (Jerry

Vermeer) if you have any questions. We would like to get a rough idea on

how many are going as soon as possible, hopefully right around the first of

the year, so they know how many to figure on at their end in Florida. Watch

your bulletin for more info.

Thank you!

“See what great love the Father has

lavished on us, that we should be

called children of God! And that is

what we are!”

The Christmas Program is at 5:00 on December 16. Children are asked to meet in

their singing rooms (1st-4th meet in the multipurpose room, 3 year olds through

kindergarten meet in room 9) by 4:45.

After the program the children will be excused to go to their Sunday school rooms

to receive a bag of peanuts and candy. If your child has any allergies, please

contact Bonnie Wolf by December 12. Thank you!

December is the month we are giving our Pioneer Club volunteers a

break! There will be NO Pioneer Club in December. It will resume on

January 9.

However, kids in grades 1st-5th will have practice for the Christmas

program on December 5 and 12. Practice will be from 6:30-7:30

both nights. Please come for the meal ministry followed by program practice!

December 5 - Students in grades 1st-4th meet in the multipurpose room; 5th

graders meet in the sanctuary

December 12 - All students 1st-5th will meet in the sanctuary

Note: Kids ages 3 years old through kindergarten do NOT need to come on

Wednesday evenings for practice!

NEEDED: Parents of kids in grades 1st-5th willing to help “supervise” on Wednesday nights

December 5 and 12.

5th grade parents are needed to help with lines

Other parents are need to help with singing

Please contact Bonnie Wolf if you are willing to help!

Strong men, we need you! We are looking for a few men to help set up and

take down risers for the Christmas program. We would need you right after

church on December 9 and 16 and on Wednesday night, December 12.

Please contact Bonnie Wolf if you are willing to help!

Tradition. Many people love this word, then there are others who have more of the “out

with the old, in with the new” thought process.

I looked up the word tradition and this was the definition I found:

The transmission of customs or beliefs from generation to generation, or the

fact of being passed on in this way

I can’t say that handing out candy bags to the children is a belief, but it is something that

has been passed down through many generations here at MRC! I received a check in the

mail from someone that grew up in the Maurice Church and in her note she wrote: “I have

the most wonderful memories of Maurice Church Christmas pageants & programs.

It was such a treat to get that bag of goodies. A fond memory, I am so glad you are

keeping that tradition alive! Please accept this donation to help pay for bags of goodies

this year!” She attended church here 45+ years ago and has a very special place in her

heart for MRC! It was so great to hear how MRC continues to touch people in special

ways.

Did you grow up in this church and remember getting the bag of peanuts & chocolates?

Or what traditions do you remember as a child? Share with your kids what was special to

you! Perhaps you could start a tradition of your own!

If you would like to donate towards the Christmas candy and peanuts, please mark your

offering “Christmas Candy” on December 2 or bring it to the church office or Bonnie’s

office. Thank you for your help!

REMINDER: Children & Worship meets December 9 during the service. This is a wonderful

time for 3 and 4 year old children to worship at their level. This is not a play time, but a time

to learn about worship! All 3 and 4 year old students are welcome to attend. They will be

dismissed during the offering to go to Room 2. Parents, the leaders and helpers in Children

& Worship will take your child directly to Sunday School so you may pick them up after

Sunday School. Visitors are always welcome!

Growing up in Greenville, Texas, Bart Millard suffers physical and emotional abuse at the hands of his

father, Arthur. When Arthur becomes terminally ill, he finds redemption by embracing his faith and

rediscovering his love for his son. Years later, Bart’s troubled childhood and mended relationship with his

(‘I Can Only Imagine’ has been given the Dove Seal of Approval for All Ages)

Sr. High Summer “International” Mission Trip – July 13-20 – Eaglecrest Alaska Missions

We are excited to announce that we will be partnering with Eaglecrest Alaska Missions (Sutton,

Alaska) for our summer mission trip (July 13-20). Though it is not international per se, it is a great

distance away, and not part of the lower 48 states – and there is great need in the Sutton

community for us to come, serve those in need and experience the love of Christ in a much

different culture than our own! We will be serving by participating in light construction, relationally with families in need,

winterizing homes, chopping wood, potentially helping with a VBS and Summer Day Camp, and perhaps other needs that arise.

So far, we have about 30 students who are interested in going, which is awesome! The cost for the trip has not yet been

determined, as we await word on the NEXT Gen RCA Scholarship, fundraisers, and airfare costs.

Experiencing God at TEC - “I originally went to TEC because a friend asked me to go. I was a little hesitant because I didn’t think I

had time for it, and not knowing anything about it was a little scary for me. TEC was not like anything I had imagined, and it

completely surprised me how quickly I bonded with others and became closer to God. It was such an amazing and emotional

weekend surrounded by people who genuinely loved and cared for me. It is hard to believe how much one weekend impacted

me, but I don’t think my life will ever be quite the same after TEC. It was an experience I will never forget, and I cannot wait to

work at TEC in the future.” - Edyn Dekkers

SCHEDULE: Dec. 5 - Traveling Nativity Prep/Set up (we will begin at

Moments in Missions The special offering for the month of December is:

RCA’s partner for relief & development World Renew

“Uzima” Christmas Offering (please mark your check/envelope with “Special” & place in the plate with your offering)

For advent this year, Pastor Ross and Bonnie are going to challenge the kids, and MRC to

give toward World Renew’s “Uzima” gifts by purchasing a different animal each week for

families around the world. Uzima is a Swahili word that means “full of life.” These gifts will be

a way that we can partner with World Renew in giving Uzima — abundant life — to some-

one who is hungry, poor, and oppressed. It is an opportunity for God to turn everyday events

into miracles like enough food, fruitful work, good health, and community service. A Uzima

gift may be the powerful opportunity someone needs to begin to experience the fullness of

life that God intends! Uzima includes compassionately serving those in need, empowering,

equipping, and encouraging others to make a commitment to God’s work of wholeness

and wellness in their own lives. With each animal that is purchased, an ornament will be

hung on our Christmas tree, and each will symbolize life given to help children and families

around the world. Don’t miss the opportunity to share the share the joy of abundant life the

Christmas.

Uzima!

Have you ever thought about how giving started at the first

Christmas? Everyone had something to give. When Mary submitted to God’s plan, she gave her body to be the first

home of the incarnated Savior (Luke 1:30-38). Not only that, she

surrendered her good reputation to fulfill the Lord’s calling for her life.

Joseph offered his love and protection to Mary and the child who

was not his own (Matt. 1:18-25). An angel gave an announcement

of the Messiah’s birth to some lowly shepherds watching their flocks

at night. A heavenly host of angels offered praise and glory to

God. The shepherds shared the first personal testimony about the

Messiah. The wise men relinquished the comfort of home to seek the

newborn King & give Him gifts worthy of royalty (Matt. 2:1-11).

At first glance, these gifts may seem to pertain only to the first Christmas, but they each

have application for us today. Look at this list again. What gifts could you give to Christ

today? And how about gifts to those around you? Who needs your protection, love,

time, or perhaps the good news of salvation in Christ?

As is our tradition, this holiday season at MRC we are offering several

opportunities to help others by giving.

Through the Prison Ministries Angel tree, you can purchase gifts that

would benefit children who have a parent that is incarcerated. These

gifts suggestions are hung on the tree and will be delivered to the

homes of the families affected. You can give through your gift or by

volunteering to deliver after all the gifts are collected.

Through donating to The ATLAS Christmas Store you can

help stock the Christmas store that benefits financially

challenged families and the ATLAS office during the

holiday season.

ATLAS Orange City Area is one of MRC’s mission partners who helps those who are

struggling, wanting to grow, or seeking a mentor. Together they work through a helping

process by walking alongside and supporting those who are hurting. At Christmas,

people and families are welcome to shop and purchase new items at greatly reduced

prices, creating an experience of dignity, respect, and stewardship for all involved:

customers, donors, and volunteers. Items are suggestions for store inventory, but if you

have something you would like to donate that would make a good gift this can be

donated as well.

These opportunities to give (Christmas store items) will be available starting Sunday,

November 25, and due back Sunday, December 2. If you would like to volunteer at the

store on December 9, Saturday, or have questions contact La Donna De Vries.

We invite you to seek opportunities to give… through the Atlas Christmas Store,

the Prison Ministry Angel try or your own giving opportunity

“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances.” 1 Thess. 5:16-18

Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s

name was Mary. — Luke 1:26-27

What if Joseph and Mary had shown up in furs with a chauffeur,

bling-blinged and high-muckety-mucked? And what if God had decked out

Bethlehem like Hollywood on Oscar night: red carpet, flashing lights, with

angels interviewing the royal couple? “Mary, Mary, you look simply divine.”

Had Jesus come with such whoop-de-do, we would have read the story and

thought, My, look how Jesus entered their world.

But since He didn’t, we can read the story and dream. My, might Jesus be born in

my world? My everyday world?

Isn’t that what you indwell? Not a holiday world. Or a red-letter-day world.

No, you live an everyday life. You have bills to pay, beds to make, and grass to

cut. Your face won’t grace any magazine covers, and you aren’t expecting a

call from the White House.

Congratulations. You qualify for a modern-day Christmas story. God enters

the world through folks like you and comes on days like today.

So be alert… today just might be your Christmas story.
