Happy Thanksgiving! Hope your day is filled with family, friends, and lots of food.
Here are a couple of things to keep in mind…
Sunday school
Sunday school takes place in room 226 at 9:00AM. This week we start our Advent season. We will look at the promise of a Savior in the midst of terrible times and our response to his coming.
Hiking Saturday
The plan is to leave the Church at 9:30am, Saturday (Nov. 29) and heading to the Old Trace - Garrison Creek Loop Trail. Although it is only a one day hike, it is rated as “moderate”, one attempting it should be ready for an adventurous hike. For those who feel up to the 6+ mile challenge, the trip promises to be a memorable and worthwhile experience.
Here are the stats on the Hike:
Length: 6.3 total miles
Trail Type: Loop
Skill Level: Moderate
Duration: 3.5 hours
Season: Year-round
If you are planning on going:
1. Let me know: email / facebook, call, or talk to me in person.
2. Dress appropriately: comfortable shoes are a must. Be sure to layer clothing to avoid overheating and/or freezing. The weather looks good, but the latest forecast does give us a 30% chance of rain.
3. Pack a HEARTY LUNCH, several snacks (trail mix, granola bars, etc.) and plenty of WATER (at least a liter).
4. Money for a meal on the road.
Grace and peace!

Here’s a couple of updates to help you stay connected…
Sunday school
Hope to see you tomorrow morning as we dig deeper into God’s Word. Sunday school takes place in room 226 at 9:00AM. We will look at what Hebrews says about faith and its role in a world of unseen realities.
Long Story Short
The much anticipated encore performance of Long Story Short starring Diane and Jeff Cater, Stephan Scappaticci, and Shelley Flint is scheduled for this Sunday night (November 23). Join us for a hilarious dramatic reenactment of the entire bible in just 60 minutes. It’s a great way to introduce people to the gospel story in a comfortable, non-threatening atmosphere.
Hiking Saturday
The plan is to leave the Church at 9:30am, Saturday (Nov. 29) and heading to the Hidden Springs Trail. Although it is only a one day hike and rated as “easy”, one attempting it should be ready for an adventurous hike. For those who feel up to the 5 mile challenge, the trip promises to be a memorable and worthwhile experience.
If you are planning on going:
1. Let me know: email / facebook, or talk to me in person by Wednesday.
2. Dress appropriately: comfortable shoes are a must. Be sure to layer clothing to avoid overheating and/or freezing.

Operation Christmas Child
This Sunday, following the morning service, we will take part in Operation Christmas Child.
“Operation Christmas Child brings joy and hope to children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoe boxes and the Good News of God’s love. Since 1993, more than 61 million shoe boxes have been packed, shipped, and delivered across the globe. People of all ages can be involved in this simple, hands-on missions project while focusing on the true meaning of Christmas—Jesus Christ.” (http://www.samaritanspurse.org/index.php/OCC/)
After the morning service, (1) we will have lunch together in room 226 (where we have Sunday school), (2) head to Big Lots! to purchase items for our shoe boxes, (3) return to HCN to pack up & wrap our boxes, and (4) pray over them.
If you plan to attend this event please RSVP (let us know) BEFORE Sunday so that we can have enough food for everyone. You can do this by e-mail or RSVP to the facebook event.
If you would like to be a part of Operation Christmas Child but cannot be there on Sunday, you can drop off a completed box BY SUNDAY NIGHT (Nov. 9).
How to Pack a Shoe Box
1. Shoe Box -- Use an empty shoe box (standard size, please) or a small plastic container. You can wrap the box (lid separately), but wrapping is not required. Most importantly, pray for the child who will receive your gift.
2. Boy or Girl? Determine whether your gift will be for a boy or a girl, and the child’s age category: 2-4, 5-9, or 10-14. Labels will be provided.
3. FILL WITH GIFTS -- Fill the box with a variety of gifts that will bring delight to a child. Use the gift ideas provided on the bottom of this page.
4. INCLUDE YOUR DONATION -- Please donate $7 or more for each shoe box you prepare to help cover shipping and other project costs.
5. DROP OFF -- Place a rubber band around each closed shoe box and leave it at the Church.
Thanks in advance for your generosity!

three quick reminders:
First, next week is our Operation Christmas Child Blitz. We are asking everyone in the college & young adult ministry to come prepared to help with this exciting and worthwhile ministry. The plan is to stay for lunch (we’ll provide it), go shopping together (Big Lots!) to get items for a needy child’s Christmas package. We will then pack the boxes and pray over them.
Second, we are no longer using the Church van to provide rides to & from Trevecca on Sunday mornings. Given the price of gasoline and the low number of students utilizing this service (compared to the solid number of students driving themselves), we have decided to suspend the van rides. IF YOU STILL NEED A RIDE, please do not hesitate to call me or contact one of the other TNU students driving to Hermitage.
Third, we have an excellent Sunday school discussion planned for tomorrow morning (9:00AM in room 226) and would love for you to be a part of the experience. Here’s a taste of what’s in store for class in the morning: “We always think we know what’s missing from our lives in order to really make us happy, don’t we? ‘If only I had that car, or that job, or if only I could lose those 15 lbs, then I’d be happy.’ Really? How often do we want something only to find out that it wasn’t that great after all? Sometimes we ask God for things and if he doesn’t deliver right away, we start questioning whether God really understands or even cares. Do we really trust God? Do we trust that God is good and sees a bigger picture than we ever could? It’s easy to want what’s right in front of us, but maybe God knows what’s better for us, and sometimes we just can’t see it. Hope to see you there!

I am writing this email from high in the hills of Gatlinburg.
Our college & young adult ministry has a camping trip scheduled for this weekend; however the feedback that I’ve gotten is that three days is too much time away from the studies and work. Therefore, we are planning a one day hiking trip not too far from Nashville.
The NEW plan is leaving TNU at 9am or the Church at 9:30am and heading to the John C. Clayborn Millennium Trail. Be warned: the Millennium is an eight mile hike and rated as “difficult”. Although it is only a one day hike, one attempting it should be ready for an arduous hike. That being said, for those who feel up to the challenge, the trip promises to be a memorable and worthwhile experience.
If you are planning on going:
1. Let me know: email / facebook, or talk to me in person on Sunday. I am currently in the mountains and cellphone reception is spotty.
2. Dress appropriately: comfortable shoes are a must. Light jacket if it looks like rain would be smart.
3. Pack a hearty lunch, several snacks (trail mix, granola bars, etc.) and plenty of water (at least a liter).
4. Money for a meal on the road.
Have a great day, hope to see you on Sunday!

The goal is to raise $8,400 ($70 per month x 12 months x 10 orphans), to provide food, clothing, housing, and schooling for ten Kenyan orphans. The first building of this orphanage was constructed by the HCN Mission Africa team last June. A silent auction of art will be available in the lobby of The Center, coordinated by Angela Hisey, Sandra Hunt, and Holly Steinmetz. Please plan to attend. Would you consider sponsoring one of the orphans?

Instructive Moments with the Savior
Sunday, 6:00pm, room 226.This unique series draws readers back in time to the streets of Jerusalem and the hills of Palestine to the revealing words of a wandering Jewish preacher. This series weaves events, emotions, thoughts, and faces into a moving depiction of the life of Christ. Woven with threads of humanity and divinity, Moments with the Savior reveals the Lord who calls you to a more intimate relationship with him.
Small Groups — Merge
Through our small groups, or MERGE groups, you will engage in a journey through biblically provocative, open-ended conversations. Each discussion will take you deep into your story and help you discover the spiritual and often paradoxical truths of Christianity.
We continue to look for new opportunities to start new small groups on our various campuses and around middle Tennessee. If you are interested in leading or being involved in a small group, please contact Ken.
Grace and Peace.
