This Week November 21, 2017

Dear Folks,

May you all have a blessed Thanksgiving!  Don't forget to say grace!!

Thank to you everyone who made the Pumpkin and Holly Fair a great success!  It takes a village!

Tonight is the Shelton Interfaith Thanksgiving Service, 7 P.M. at the Church of the Good Shepherd, Episcopal, 182 Coram Avenue.  The offering will go to Spooner House.  The imperishable food gathering will go to the Valley Food Bank. Pumpkin dessert are requested for the fellowship time following the service.

This coming Sunday, November 26, the Rev. Carol Rawls will be preaching.  The scripture is Matthew 25:31-46.  The sermon is "Where Love Is, There Is Christ".

Following the service on Sunday, the Diaconate will be decorating the sanctuary for Christmas.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

There will be a meeting for all members of the Huntington Congregational Church UCC
immediately following the worship service on Sunday, December 3, 2017 for the purpose of presenting a draft budget for 2018.

The Shelton Clergy Association will be sponsoring a Christmas Carol Sing on Sunday, December 3, at 4 P.M. at St. Paul's Episcopal "old" church.

After the singing, come back to our Fellowship Hall for Troop 101's Pancake Dinner, 3 to 6 P.M, $8 per adult, $5 per children under 5.  Visit Troop 101's Facebook page to reserve your seat!

Stop by in between singing and eating for the Christmas Tree lighting on the Green at 5 P.M.  December 3 is a busy day!!!

Let us pray.  The words of our mouths are never enough, O God, to offer you our gratitude for all that we have and all that we are.  But, may you accept them, as well as the good we do in your name.  In that good is our true thanksgiving.  Thanks and praise be to you, O God.  Amen.

In Christ's love,
Rev. Lucille
