Discovering Your Giftedness Workshop

Do you know how God has uniquely gifted you to fulfill His purpose for your life? Do you understand how your spiritual and natural giftedness works together? If you’re not sure, or want a “refresher course,” our Discovering Your Giftedness workshop should be your first step.

This workshop will assist you in discovering your personality type, your spiritual gifts, and how the blend works together in work, ministry through the church, and relationships. The tool Pastor Mike is using is called “Uniquely You.”

Saturday, March 3, 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. (lunch provided).

Materials fee: $20.

Register online.

Limited spaces available.

 

Sock Drive

PROJECT HOMELESS CONNECT SOCK DRIVE

IBC is highly involved with the homeless community in Port Angeles through our Clothes Closet, emergency food bags and Care Bags.

Every year, Serenity House of Clallam County hosts the “Clallam County Project Homeless Connect.” Friday, February 8, 9 AM – 3 PM, is the day set aside at Vern Burton to offer on-site services and build community connections between those experiencing homelessness and agencies that offer services.

IBC is having a Sock Drive to offer individuals a pair of new socks (men’s, women’s, kids’) at IBC’s information table. It would be great if every church family could donate at least one pair of new socks—more would be awesome!

Consider doing this as a community project with your home group, youth group or Bible study!

Christmas Caroling

Saturday, December 15 • 6 p.m.
