Timothy Project Table in the Narthex this Morning Are you an adult who would like to make a difference in a 7th or 8th grader’s life? If so, you could become part of our “Timothy Project” group. We need 200 adults to serve as prayer partners to these students in our church. You would simply pray, send cards/letters, and offer encouragement to your student. It’s a great way for you to make a difference just as Paul did in Timothy’s life when he was a young man. If you would like more information, contact Sandra Wiseman at jswise2@aol.com.
All Saints Weekend Saturday, November 5 and Sunday, November 6 On this weekend we will reflect on all who have gone before us, and now abide in the “great cloud of witnesses.” All those who have died in the past year from our family of faith will be named in the weekend services and a rose will be displayed in their honor. There will be a guided meditation with an opportunity to view the names added to the memorial wall, as well as pay respects to those buried in our Columbarium.
