We will start the Fall Bible Study this Wednesday, Sep 11th, at 6 PM. The book for our Fall series is “A Is for Alabaster” by Anna Carter Florence. The paperback book is available from several book websites, but the best-listed price is currently from the PC(USA) store, as it is on sale for $13. We will discuss the lesson “A is for Abigail” on Sep 11th, and “A is for Alabaster” on Sep 18th. The Fall Bible Study series will have 12 lessons and end on Wednesday, Dec 4th.
During A Season of Peace, September 8 to October 6, World Communion Day, we will be collecting the Peace and Global Witness offering. These funds are used for peace education, helping families in need, assistance for teens and young adults, and community care and engagement. 25% of the offering will stay in our community, 25% will go to mid-councils to unite congregations to support peacemaking in their regions, and 50% will support the work for peace and reconciliation being done by Presbyterians across the globe. There are special envelopes for this offering on the table near the entrance doors.
