Announcements:
  • Mission and Outreach are collecting financial donations for two efforts. One is a COVID emerging needs matching grant. John Calvin Presbytery will match donations made by October 31, 2:1.
  • The other collection is for JCPDA Blue Buckets. Rather than asking for actual supplies, we are asking for funding to support JCPDA’s purchase of supplies.
  • We will have a gathering in the chapel after fellowship to discuss our church’s future. A small group of elders met with Greg Emery recently; time to get going again in discussions about our next installed pastor.
  • Our next Zoom Christian ed gathering will be Thursday, October 28, based on a reading, “Large Space Rocks That Pass ‘Near’ Earth Help Us Think About God of the Cosmos.” If you need the Zoom link or the reading, contact Jonathan Kimball or Javier Valentin-Sivico.

Susan Murray’s sermon, Be Careful What You Ask For, will be based on Mark 10:35-45. We will also be hearing from Lyndsey Harris about Russell House. Announcements:

  • The Presbytery has changed the deadline for the Emergency Covid Grant to November 1. If you are going to make a donation for Russell House, please do it before October 31.  Remember this is the grant that matches $2 for every $1 donated.
  • The JCPDA is requesting Blue Bucket Brigade donations. Since gathering the items and getting them to Springfield continues to be difficult, Outreach Committee is asking for monetary donations again this year.  Thank you in advance for your generosity.
  • First Friday Out will be November 5 at Kensington, starting at 5:30 with food delivered at 6:00. It will be catered by Bandana’s. Please talk with Javier Valentín-Sívico to make your selections and pre-pay for your meal ($10).
