October 2023
On October 1, we are kicking off a three-message series called “Second Chance Wins”. Our God wants us to succeed in life! He is all about growing us to our full potential.

In this series we see this illustrated in the lives of three different people: Moses, Samson, and Elijah. Each of them failed at life. Each of them suffered great loss. Yet, God called them to his purposes, and they were used in mighty ways.

As we study their lives, we will learn how our God gave them a second chance and how He is still in the business of giving second chances to people like you and me.
Second Chance Wins
October 1: Moses – Never Too Late
October 8: Samson – Never Too Far
October 15: Elijah – Never Too Hard

On October 22nd, we are beginning a four-message series called “Tough Teachings of Jesus”.

Remember, if you missed a message you can always go to our website for a link to watch the service online. All of our worship and messages are available by going to dewittcc.org. (All of our messages are posted on a one week delay.)
 

Fall Kickoff 2023 - BBQ and Hoedown
October 1 will be our fall kickoff Sunday. We are planning an old-fashioned Hoedown with a BBQ picnic and Square Dancing in the new pavilion following our worship service. We have a Square Dance Caller lined up who will bring the music and teach us the basic moves. If you know your right from your left – you are good! This will be a great kickoff to our Fall and Winter at DeWitt Christian Church!

Invite your family, friends, and neighbors to join us on Kickoff Sunday – October 1st at DeWitt Christian Church!

We are working on the 2023 “Journey to the Stable”. The dates will be the same as last year, December 20, 21, & 22 (Wed-Friday). This is our schedule: In September we plan. In October we recruit. In November we get ready. And in December we put it all together! Please pray for a successful outreach to our community as we celebrate the birth of our Lord!

We are expecting our contractor to complete the ceiling to install the ends of the soon. The contractor is going to work in our project sometime this fall. Thanks to everyone who has been a part of adding this great space for outdoor food and fellowship!
