Annual Stewardship/Business Meeting

Deacon Nominations

Building Loan Payoff Capital Campaign
We have announced a capital campaign effort to pay off our current mortgage before it matures in September 2025.  At that point, ORBC will have to assume a mortgage of around $1 million at a higher interest rate.  Prayerfully consider what you can pledge to reduce this amount.  We are excited about this challenge and the next steps  our Lord as for us as a church family. 
Ladies Christmas Dinner
Ladies, beginning November 10th, you can sign up at the Welcome Desk for Christmas in Romania on December 5th from 6:30-8:30 PM in the ORBC Community Room.  Mary Sherfy will be sharing her testimony of faith while growing up in Communist Romania.
The next step class, which meets during the Sunday school hour, is a 2-week presentation that highlights ORBC's vision, ministry philosophy, and doctrine.  Please see Pastor Bobby if you would like to be part of this class.

Daniel and Jennifer Mee,
Children: Elianna, Elijah and Emma
– Bogota, Columbia

God is doing amazing things in Columbia. For the past 2 ½ years the Mees and their ministry supporters have been praying for the seminary to become approved by the Secretary of Education in Columbia. They have faced what seemed like total roadblocks along the way, but God has shown His favor and power. In September they wrote that final approval had been given on the 1st phase of the project, approval to offer certified theological programs. (This is equivalent to a technical degree in the US.) Few Christian institutes in Columbia are able to achieve that goal. The next phase in the project is construction of an educational building. Continue to pray that God will raise up a great army of Great Commission servants to impact cities and the unreached of Columbia as well as other parts of the world.
