After a time of good food and fellowship, Jean Freeman, our program chairperson, introduced our guest singer, Karin Henry. Karin is an accomplished soloist.

News from the Library: This month we will highlight The Ada’s House series authored by Cindy Woodsmall. The Ada’s House Series in-cludes: The Hope of Refuge, The Bridge of Peace, and The Harvest of Grace. The Hope of Refuge Two very different women are pulled by their strongest desires. Deborah Mast joined the Amish church and longs to marry her fiancé, but he is changing. Cara Moore is forced to look into a life that was meant to be hers. Will Ada’s House help them realize their hearts’ desires or will it force them to accept what life has done to each of them? The Bridge of Peace Living out her passion for teaching, Lena Kauffman’s work is suddenly interrupted by a series of pranks and accidents targeted toward her and her students. When tragedy strikes her dear friend Grey Graber’s family on school property, the school board begins to blame her for the trouble. As grief and confusion take their toll on Grey and Lena’s friendship, they are both forced to face a new reality that may offer the peace and love they each long for. The Harvest of Grace Fleeing a terrible mistake, Sylvia Fisher dedicates herself to saving the failing Blank farm. When prodigal son Aaron returns, he is surprised by this unusual farmhand who opposes all his plans. Will Aaron and Sylvia’s unflinching efforts toward opposite futures mask the bigger picture—a path to forgiveness, grace, and the promise of love? These books will be found in the front window of the library. Please feel free to borrow them or select some other books for your reading pleasure. We are so happy to serve you. A big thanks to those who have donated books! We are happy to accept any Christian related books dated 1990 or newer. When returning books, please put them in the green return bin in the back of the library. Donated books can be put in the green box also.

Keep on Reading Liberty Hill! Christine Harris,

Librarian Pam Fowler,

Pastor’s November "Beacon” Article:

As we look to the future it is sometimes good to look at where you have been. We have many exciting events coming up this fall but, for a moment, I would like to reflect on this year’s edition of LibertyFest. Wow! What an event. One of our best attended LibertyFest’s in quite some time! Four people made a decision to follow Christ as their personal Lord and Savior and

many families were touch by the love of Jesus shown in so many practical ways.

I am grateful for our leadership team who outperformed all expectations in the planning of this wonderful evening and for all of the volunteers who made this happen. We will experience the benefits of this great event for a long time and I look forward to seeing what God is going to do! In Him, Chris
