Welcome to Ridge Pointe!
It is our hope today that you will sense our love and devotion for God, our love of great worship music to God, and our love of the timeless and powerful Word of God. Have a blessed day as you worship with us!

Memory Verse
The angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people.” (Luke 2:10)

Life Lessons
God cares about everyone, despite his or her occupation or standing in society. By Jewish tradi3on, shepherds were known to be spiritually unclean. Yet the Lord chose these men to proclaim the birth announcement of His Son— the Savior of the world. The angel told them not to fear, but to open their eyes and watch for the wonderfully good thing that the Lord was doing for them and for the whole world— something that would bring great joy to everyone.

Happy Birthday
No birthdays this week.

Annual Christmas Offering
Throughout the month of December, we are asking all of you to give a special offering (above your regular giving) to help us end the year in good shape financially. This is very important to the continuation of God’s work. And as we give, we will remember the words of Scripture: “God loves a cheerful giver.” When we all take part joyfully, God will use us to share the Word faithfully both here and around the world.

Ladies Brunch
There will be a Christmas brunch for the ladies of Ridge Pointe on Saturday, December 12th at 10:30 AM. It will be held at the Vacendak’s home in Richardson. The address is 4701 Breckinridge Ct. There is a sign up list on the information
counter. Bring a covered dish and an ornament to exchange.

Memory Verse
Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem. (Matthew 2:1).

Life Lessons
The wise men eagerly journeyed to Bethlehem to give a royal welcome to the baby Jesus–God’s promised gi@ of salvation to mankind. They packed gold, frankincense, and myrrh so they could join in the heavenly worship of the infant King. These men formed an important part of the celebration that surrounded Christ’s birth. In fact, they represented you in God’s great plan. They came to worship the Lord of lords and King of kings, and their visit to the Christ child symbolizes the thousands of men and women who have humbly sought the Messiah throughout history. Through your own seeking and serving, you become part of the heavenly symphony that gives passionate praise to the Savior. Seek and
sing, for surely He is worthy.

Happy Birthday

Memory Verse
One generation shall praise Your works to another, And shall declare Your mighty works. I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, and on Your wondrous works….The eyes of all look expectantly to You, and You give them their food in due season (Psalm 145: 4-5; 15).

Life Lessons
How can we meditate on God’s majestic splendor? We can recall the personal victories He has given us. We can ponder His attributes. We can see His glory through nature and other believers. And most of all we can focus on His Son. The Lord is the great Provider. As Paul said, “He gives to all life, breath, and all things” (Acts 17:25). We do not look to God presumptuously for what we need, but expectantly, because we put our hope in His great love.

Happy Birthday

Memory Verse
And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt (Daniel 12:2). NKJV

Life Lessons
Any hardships that God asks us to endure for His sake will one day seem like nothing in comparison to His reward (Rom.8:18). However, if we fail to believe in Christ or chooses anything in His place, a terrible judgment awaits (Rev. 20:11-15). As Jesus said in Mark 8:35, “Whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it.”

Shoebox Sunday
We will bring all our filled boxes to the sanctuary next Sunday, November 15th and then they will be taken to the drop off
point. If you have any items to donate you must bring them to the church by Tuesday the 10th of November. See Becky Steller for more information.

Memory Verse
He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all (Daniel 11:37).

Life Lessons
Most conservative scholars believe this verse describes the Antichrist, “who opposes and exalts himself above all that is
called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God” ( 2 Thess. 2:4) (Life Principles Bible)

Shoebox Sunday
Shoebox Sunday is just around the corner. We will bring all our filled boxes to the sanctuary on Sunday, November 15th and then they will be taken to the drop off point. There is still time to participate if you wish. See Becky Steller for more information.

Memory Verse
Yes, all kings shall fall down before Him; All nations shall serve Him… His name shall endure forever; His name shall continue as long as the sun. And men shall be blessed in Him; All nations shall call Him blessed (Psalm 72: 11&17).

Life Lessons
One day, perhaps soon, “every knee should bow” and “every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Glory of God the Father.

Jesus will receive a kingdom that will never end, and He will rule over all the nations in righteousness and truth. Then we will see the true blessing of our obedience. (Life Principles Bible)

Memory Verse
The words of the Lord are pure words, like Silver tried in a furnace of earth. Purified seven times (Psalm 12:6).

Memory Verse
Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep (Luke 15:6)

Words Of Wisdom

Jesus told the Pharisees the story of a lost sheep. The sheep was of such value to the shepherd that he left his other sheep behind while he searched for the wandering one. And when he found the one that had strayed, He celebrated! Such is the happiness of God over those who turn back to Him. Jesus said, “Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.” God has sent us a Savior to rescue us and bring us home.
