This Week September 8

Dear Folks,

Hope you are staying cool on this hot September day.

This Thursday is my Prayer Day.  If you have any joys or concerns you would like me to raise up, please let me know.

This Sunday, September 13 is Rally Sunday!  So, come on back from where ever you have been this summer!  The scripture is Deuteronomy 5:1-21.  The sermon is "The Big Ten".  And, no, I won't be talking about college sports teams.

Sunday, September 20 is our Outdoor Worship and Picnic, 11 A.M. at Pemberley (the parsonage), 160 Huntington Street.  Registration forms are in the basket in the Alcove,  The cost is $5 per person, $10 per family.  This included burgers, hot dogs and drinks.  Please bring a dish to share and a chair and/or blanket to sit on.

Sunday School officially starts on September 27.  Registrations forms are available in the Alcove. 

September 27 is also our "Generosity Season" kick-off.  Watch for more details to come!

The refugee crisis has been heavy on my heart.  Let us pray.  O God, for all those who have to flee from their homes, we ask for strength.  For those who would rather face death then stay in an untenable situation, we ask for courage.  For those who have lost people they loved, we ask for comfort. For those who struggle to make sense of it all, we ask for peace.  For the rest of the world, we ask for generosity and openness.   Amen.

In Christ's love,
Rev. Lucille
