Welcome to a New Year!!

pastorkate — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 02:23:31 +0000

A new year and a chance to begin again. Jump into our year with the Bible this new year or join the Wednesday Bible study on the book of Acts. Perhaps connecting with young children is your calling. If so, please volunteer to teach a Bible lesson or a craft with our kids in church school, Sunday mornings.

Interested in being a mentor to a teen? We have a place for you! Our youth group is led by our seminarian Ryan Appleby and meets on Sunday evenings at 6:30pm. The kids need an adult to assist Ryan each meeting, so please talk to Pastor Kate and help our youth grow in faith (and have lots of fun!)

Perhaps Mission is the place for you. Our newly constituted Mission committee under the direction of Elder Anna lee Bachtell is looking for members who want to make a difference in the world by helping with food, aiding the homeless and building water filtration systems in Cuba. Sounds like your calling? Then give the church a call and join in!

Would you like to help us stay connected with those who are aren’t in church? The Deacons are looking for secret saints who will send cards, make calls, and pray for those who are having a hard time getting to church. Maybe your call will bring them the strength they need to return to health!

Maybe painting, weeding or cleaning up the church building is your thing. We could use some help this year as we work on painting our windows, cutting down the climbing ivy and cleaning up the kitchens. If you can devote a day or two to the property give us a call!

Or maybe you have noticed something that would be a great ministry or mission for our church or community. Talk to some others and make a plan. We can help you make it happen!

Make it a faithful New Year!!!

Reading through the Bible

pastorkate — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 21:48:17 +0000

We have started the journey though the Bible this fall and I hope that you will keep up with our progress though my blog this fall. I hope to post information about the readings weekly. I also hope that you will join in the conversation by commenting on the blog as well.
We also meet for face to face conversation about our readings on Sunday morning at 9am in the lounge.
Meanwhile, if you are interested in having material sent to your email address each Monday then send me a note and I can send helpful info to you.
Check out Biblegateway.org if you want to read the passages on line.

Commemoration of Ten Year Anniversary of 9/11

pastorkate — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 14:40:27 +0000

On Sunday September 11, 2011

we gathered with other churches and

town leaders to commemorate the 10 year anniversary

of the horrific events and loss of life on that fated day

in the life of our country. Many still grieve over

the loss of friends and family and all

pray that this never happens again.
