This Week January 3

Dear Folks,

Happy New Year!  May this 2017 be filled with the abundant blessings of God in our lives!

Happy Epiphany on January 6! 

This Sunday, January 8, is the Baptism of Christ.  The scripture is Matthew 3:13-17.  The sermon is "Take Me to the River".  Why, yes, that is the title of my favorite "Talking Heads" song.

Following worship, the Deacons will be undecorating the sanctuary.  Any help would be appreciated!

We are starting a New Year's tradition: the Prayer List is wiped clean.  If you would like to relist someone or add someone, please let Karen or me know.

THE 293rd ANNUAL MEETING OF THE HUNTINGTON CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH, UCC WILL BE HELD IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE MORNING WORSHIP SERVICE ON SUNDAY, JANUARY 22, 2017 FOR THE PURPOSE OF ELECTING OFFICERS, ACCEPTING THE 2017 BUDGET. Child Care will be Provided. The Snowdate is Sunday, January 29, 2017.

Let us pray.  Like those wise ones from the East, may we too, O God, search for the Christ Child, not in some far off land, but rather in our hearts and in the faces of all we meet.  May you give us the wisdom and the faith to do so.  Amen.

In Christ's love,
Rev. Lucille
