PW Meeting 1/10/20

Last Friday at our PW meeting Nancy Burks Worcester spoke about our prison book ministry.

Upcoming PW events include packaging for CC’s Carry Ons on January 29, White Breakfast on February 26, and PW general meeting on March 13.

There was one male in attendance. He ate breakfast and listened enthusiastically to our speaker, mostly because she is his grandmother.

Welcome, Brenda!

In case you missed it, our new Associate Pastor is here! Welcome, Brenda! Just a reminder, please wear your name tags to help her as she gets to know us.

Brenda’s first career as a CPA spanned 30 years. Somewhere during that time, she felt God’s call to ministry so she entered seminary, became ordained, and the rest is history. She was happy to exchange the field of finance with the field of faith, but she can still create a mean Excel spreadsheet!

“Immanuel” on piano

Yesterday, Jane Seley played a beautiful prelude, “Immanuel” by Michael Card. You can watch it here if you missed it, or if you loved it so much you want to hear it again.

Yesterday, Jane Seley played a beautiful prelude, “Immanuel” by Michael Card. You can watch it here if you missed it, or if you loved it so much you want to hear it again.

Here are the lyrics:

A sign shall be given
A virgin will conceive
A human baby bearing
Undiminished deity
The glory of the nations
A light for all to see
That hope for all who will embrace
His warm reality

Immanuel
Our God is with us
And if God is with us

Who could stand against us
Our God is with us
Immanuel

For all those who live in the shadow of death
A glorious light has dawned
For all those who stumble in the darkness
Behold your light has come

Immanuel
Our God is with us
And if God is with us
Who could stand against us
Our God is with us
Immanuel

So what will be your answer?
Will you hear the call?

Of Him who did not spare His son
But gave him for us all
On earth there is no power
There is no depth or height
That could ever separate us
From the love of God in Christ

Immanuel
Our God is with us
And if God is with us
Who could stand against us
Our God is with us
Immanuel

Immanuel
Our God is with us
And if God is with us
Who could stand against us
Our God is with us
Immanuel

Christmas Gift Bag Delivery

Thank you to all who contributed to our Christmas gift bags for the Housing Authority!

We gave 22 gift bags for families and 83 gift bags for elderly and disabled folks.

This year we added 4 bags of snacks for the employees and 17 cat toys and 21 dog toys. 

What a wonderful way for us to spread Christmas cheer in our neighborhood. 

A big thank you to the Missions and Outreach Committee: Emily Graham who helped price and shop for gift items, Marijane Harvey who hand wrote 109 cards, and Saunya Bishop and Carol Boyd who filled and tied beautiful bows on each bag. 

And thank you to Tim and Nancy and Thomas Bennett for delivering all 109 bags up to the community room at the housing authority.
