BOOK DISCUSSION

We will be discussing "World Without End" by Ken Follett on May 15 at 7 pm. Although "World Without End" is a sequel to "Pillars of the Earth", it is not necessary to read both. We are giving you plenty of time to obtain, read, and enjoy this highly acclaimed book. Hope you will join us!

                            DEE'S FOOD PANTRY

This past year, Dee’s Food Pantry served 264 families consisting of 540 adults and 476 children. This compares to last year’s report which shows the pantry served 129 families, of which 485 were adults and 410 were children.  This mission is working and thanks to our volunteers who keep it going, we are filling some physical needs. You too can be part of that "volunteer group" by helping fill our food pantry. Now that cold weather is near and it is the time of year when people are in most need due to the high cost of utility bills and other seasonal costs,  we are asking the members of the church to help towards filling the pantry.  We generally run short of peanut butter, jelly, spaghetti sauce, spaghetti, cereal, boxed potatoes, pasta, and additional items such as paper products, canned fruit, vegetables and soup. Many thanks and may God bless you during this holiday season.      

 

COOKBOOK & SUN CATCHERS AVAILABLE!

Kudos to Margaret Mann on a fabulous job on the cookbook! You can buy the cookbooks at the office for the modest price of $10.00. Get "em while they last!

We also have beautiful crystal sun catchers, made by glass artist Gary Ferguson, etched with the angel of Revelation 11:15, taken from the stained glass window in our sanctuary. They are only $25.00 while they last.

 

NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP

Our 25th Anniversary mission project is off and running. We have already placed our first four beds. There is a thank you note on the bulletin board from two of the kids. Dean McGormley was right. It is a joy to go in and set up the beds and watch the faces of the kids! You really want to sign up for this one. And, oh yes, we will be needing some more money!
