The end of the semester is just ahead! I hope everyone's staying afloat with tests and assignments -- but just remember, you're almost done!
If you're in town, please come (and bring a friend) to the FREE FALL FESTIVAL this Sunday at noon in the SMBC front lawn. We need your help serving at the ever-popular college class booth: Sausage on a Stick! Please help out. I can vouch that it'll be lots of fun!
Announcements:
- Just to reiterate, Fall Festival (and the infamous college class Sausage on a Stick... yum!), November 15, noon, front lawn
- Catch Up Double Up Sunday is November 15. If you have fallen behind on your giving, this is the week to catch up. If you're in a position to give more than you planned, even the smallest gift could make an enormous difference.
- Discovery Weekend: what are your spiritual gifts? Find out on November 20, 6:30pm. Contact mdethrow@comcast.net to sign up.
- Blood Drive, November 22, 8am-12pm, Fellowship Hall
- This December, several of South Main's own are going to spend a Buckner Christmas in Peru, during which they will visit orphanages and distribute Christmas gifts and humanitarian aid. If you would like to contribute to the gifts, please bring them to Chelsea Wade's box in the 3rd floor church office, or you can bring them to Sunday school, and we'll take care of them. Examples of items needed include:

- board games
- Christmas CDs in Spanish
- journals
- Children's Tylenol (including chewable)
- vitamins for children and adults in large bottles
