THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT! Neighborhood Services Inc., another one of our F.O.O.D. Sunday receivers, wrote to thank us for our support during 2006.

NSI serves about 700 persons a month through their food pantry and clothing room, 42% of those we provide food for are children and youth under the age of 16

 

SOUP MAKERS NEEDED! It is not too early to start thinking about Lent and our Lenten Worship Services, Stone Soup Dinners and Guest Speakers.

If you are willing to make soup for any of these six Wednesday evenings, please sign up in the church office.

 

“NOURISH YOUR HEART FOR THE JOURNEY.” Come and take a day away from the grey weather, the noise and scurry of daily life to re-energize your soul. Join us in retreat on February 3rd as we take time to explore who we are as spiritual beings, learn how you can re-connect with the Holy Spirit and actually allow yourself the gift of time so you can re-experience walking with Christ. Please call Deb Bowsher, 309-0417, for details and RSVP!

 

OPEN SHELTER DONATIONS GREATLY APPRECIATED! We think of helping the homeless and hungry people mainly during the holidays but this is a year-round problem. We will leave the donation box in the Narthex to continue our collection of toiletries, t-shirts, etc. We will take the donations to the Open Shelter periodically.
