This Week November 15

Dear Folks,

I hope you all will take time this weekend to stop in at our Pumpkin & Holly Fair, Friday from 5:30 P.M. to 8:00 P.M., Saturday from 9:30 A.M. to 2:30 P.M.  Great food, wonderful crafts, and Santa's Attic!!  Something for everyone!

My prayer day is this Thursday, November 17.  If you have a prayer concern or joy you would like me to raise up, please let me know.

This coming Sunday, November 20, is Christ the King Sunday and Thanksgiving Sunday.  The scripture reading is Psalm 147: 1-12.  The sermon is "Thanks".  The sermon will be interactive, so please think about the things for which you are thankful.

This Sunday, we will be taking an offering for Master’s Table following worship. Master's Table Community Meals, Inc. provides a safe, clean, uplifting environment for individuals in need. They offer their guests hope for a better future. Every person who comes for assistance is welcomed regardless of race, sex, age, color, national origin, religious preference, social needs, disability, or income. Master's Table serves the poor, hungry, and the lonely by providing healthy nutritious and appetizing meals to all who come. Free meals are served at the Assumption Church in Ansonia.

The Shelton Clergy Thanksgiving Ecumenical Service will be held on Tuesday, November 22nd, 7 p.m. at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church. I will be preaching. Following the service will be a time of refreshment featuring pumpkin desserts. A donation of non-perishable goods will be collected for the Valley Food Bank. Monetary donations will benefit I.R.I.S, Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services.

Let pray.  O God, no matter what, may we continue to be your love and light to whomever we encounter.  Amen.

In Christ's love,
Rev. Lucille
