Let Us Sing Songs of Praise Psalm 95:1-7
Oh come, let us sing to the Lord;
let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;
let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!
For the Lord is a great God,
and a great King above all gods.
In his hand are the depths of the earth;
the heights of the mountains are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.
Oh come, let us worship and bow down;
let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!
For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture,
and the sheep of his hand.
Oh come, let us sing to the Lord;
let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;
let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!
For the Lord is a great God,
and a great King above all gods.
In his hand are the depths of the earth;
the heights of the mountains are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.

Community News Week 5
Fundraiser for Kizza-October 30th, 2016
As I'm sure most of you have seen on Facebook, we are having a fundraiser this Sunday for a wonderful children's resue ministry in Uganda run by Kizza and Regima Godfrey. Several of our families felt our hearts tugged and called to helping this family after spending the week with Kizza at ourdoor school and hearing of his immediate need. You can read more about his story on our BGCC Facebook page or at this link http://supportkizza.wixsite.com/fundraiser.
Many of you have asked how you can help, what can you bring? Below is the link to Sign-up Genius and we are hoping that we as a CC Community can adopt this family and be the hands and feet of Christ by providing food and serving at this event. I thank you in advance for your generosity and willingness to step up and serve and above all, ask you to be praying for all involved.

Cedar Creek Grist Mill Apple Pressing Day Oct. 29
The mill will process about 8,000 pounds of apples into apple cider. They will start distributing cider at 9 AM and until all 8,000 pounds are pressed! They just ask for a donation for the cider you will be taking home. Younger children are welcome inside the Mill to help press the cider as well. Here is a little tidbit of history I copied from their website. Feel free to read more about this historical Mill before you go.
“The Cedar Creek Grist Mill is a working museum, showing visitors the inside workings of a grist mill of the 1876 time period. It is the oldest building is the state of Washington that is still doing the job that it was built to do 126 years ago.”
It will be a whole lot of fun to get together with the younger foundations group as well.
Get details here below for important parking instructions and directions.
Address:
43907 NE Grist Mill Rd, Woodland, WA 98674

Rafiki Paka's Timeline Videos
Some of you have asked for more info/help on finding Rafiki Paka's Timeline videos. There are a few ways to access them. (You DO have to be a paid member of CCC to access them the first 2 methods below)
1. If you go to ClassicalConversations.com and log in, you can then come back to this page and click on the following link: Rafiki Paka's Timeline Videos
2. Log into your account at CCC. Hover over "CONNECTED" at the top far right of your screen, and select "FOUNDATIONS LEARNING CENTER" under "Subscription Services". Then find and hover over "LEARNING CENTER" in the blue bar in the middle right of your screen. A menu will drop down. Select "WEEKLY TIMELINE VIDEOS" at the bottom.
**NOTE: The option "Timeline Videos" in this same drop down menu takes you to different set of timeline videos. Rafiki Paka's are shown at the very bottom of the menu options.
If you are NOT a CCC subscriber, you can access the videos via Vimeo.com. Success has been minimal when attempting to access them via smartphones. PC's have much better results.
3. Visit Vimeo.com, search for "Rebekah McNary" in the search bar. Look to the far left on the next screen and you will see "PEOPLE" in the 'Show Results For' menu. Click on PEOPLE. Then on Rebekah's name. Next, select " 3 ALBUMS" on the top right. Each album on the following page requires a password. The current password is: TimelineRocks!
***PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not share this password with anyone outside of our community. We do NOT want to lose this resource, but if it is shared without Rebekah's written permission, they may be removed again.
4. As a final option, if all of the above are unsuccessful, you might consider recording your tutor with your phone as she demonstrates in class each week.
