Pastor Appreciation Month - October
“Then I will give you shepherds who trust and know Me, wise teachers who will impart knowledge and understanding to you.” — Jeremiah 3:15
October is National Pastor Appreciation Month. There is a basket in The Commons this month where cards, letters, gift cards and other forms of appreciation will be collected. You can also give love offerings through donations to Lake Houston Church, marked for Pastor Appreciation. Let’s show our pastors how much they are loved and appreciated! Pastor Philip & Stacey will be honored on Oct 27. Pastor Chris & Stephanie Tiner and Pastor Bernardo & Ana Castaneda will be honored at a another time.

Join us at Atascocita Trails Community Park our community with this fun event! There will be trick or treating, live music, games, food for purchase and prizes! Please consider the following ways you can help:
We are recruiting 16 individuals or groups to host and decorate booths for the ‘Trick or Treat Trail’ portion of the Fall Festival. We will provide a booth, candy and a festival-style game for each host. Hosts will be responsible for decorating their booth, passing out candy and manning their provided game. A booth prototype will be available in the Commons the week prior to the Fall Festival so hosts can get an idea of how to prepare. Please sign up at Info-Central!
We also need donations of individually wrapped candy. This candy will be handed out to kids as they trick or treat and play games. Please bring any donated candy and place in the box in The Commons.
