Announcements
IBC Weekly Prayer Focus
This week we will continue to pray for the Missions Team that is currently in Ecuador. Pray Colossians 4:2-4 over the team members, Barbara, Lori, Lucy, Trino, Dena, and Alexandra, that the Lord would open doors of opportunity to proclaim the gospel.
Colossians 4:2-4 “Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison—that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak.”
End of Daylight-Saving Time next week
Just a reminder that next Sunday we will turn our clocks back 1 hour as we end Daylight Saving Time.
Rosie’s Memorial Service Thank You
Dear IBC Family, I want to personally thank each of you for your prayers, hard work, and support in making Rosie’s memorial service such a blessing to her family and the people of Idyllwild. Over 260 people attended!
I am grateful for the many ways you came alongside us, from setting up refreshments and directing parking to serving as ushers, helping with setup and cleanup, providing for the music, the sound, the PowerPoint, and so much more. Your willingness to serve was so appreciated. Please continue to pray for those who heard the gospel that day but do not yet know Jesus.
Thank you all for being such a blessing! To God be the glory! Bob Leih
Candy Donations for Youth Outreach
The IBC youth are asking for your help by donating candy for their booth at this year’s Idyllwild Halloween Carnival. This is an excellent opportunity for the youth to shine the light of Jesus in a dark place. Along with handing out candy, they will also be spreading the gospel by handing out Life Books to everyone who comes to their booth. Please bring the candy to the office or hand it to Pastor Clint. For more information about the event or where to drop the candy off, see pastor Clint or email clint@idyllwildbiblechurch.org
IBC Women’s Ministry Road Trip
Ladies of IBC…Women’s Ministry would like to invite ladies over 18 years old on a little road trip! We would be meeting at IBC by 7:45 am and returning by 2:30 on Saturday, October 31, 2026. We would be driving 1.5 hours to “Ranchita Del Reo” in Julian and taking a tasting tour of the various types of apples, enjoying the garden, then having a “bring your own lunch” picnic. I did this a couple of years ago with friends and really enjoyed it…there is a little gift shop of homemade goods, and the ranch is owned and run by a Christian couple.
Total cost is $32.00 plus a donation for gas to our driver(s). We do need to prepay reservations, and there are no cancellations, even due to weather, so it is a commitment. Please see the back table to sign up or speak to Terri French to reserve your space @ 619-933-2306. This would be a private tour for our group, but I can’t reserve until I know who’s interested, so please let me know ASAP; otherwise, they may sell out, as they only offer this 1 month a year. No kids (except for breastfeeding), and we may need volunteer drivers if you want to sign on for that…)
Prayer Night at Shiloh
An invitation for a Community Worship and Prayer Gathering on Friday, October 30th at Shiloh Christian Ministries starting at 5:00 pm. We will be worshipping and interceding on behalf of our Families, Town, Region, and Nation, and to align with the purposes of God. All are invited!
