A TRADITION CONTINUES – Last Spring a group of Overbrookers enjoyed a Seder meal together for the first time in ten years. If you’d like to share this tradition again or for the first time by attending and/or preparing for the meal, contact Marge 268-5725 or Deb Bowsher at 309-0417or dbowsher@overbrookchurch.org.  Anyone wanting to help plan and organize should stay after church today for a short meeting in the Library.

WOMEN OF OVERBROOK BIBLE STUDY will continue for WOMEN OF OVERBROOK on Tuesday, February 19 at 9:30 a.m. in the Parlor. We will use the 5th lesson entitled “God’s Extravagant Grace” from the Horizon magazine with Chapter 4 of Jonah as scripture. Reading these words we find Jonah is angry not only with Nineveh, but with God. What role does repentance play in this chapter? All women are most welcome to join in this study.

 

SESSION CALLS ANNUAL MEETING of the congregation for Sunday, Feb. 24, at 11:30 a.m. in Fellowship Hall.
