Online Church Directory Update: Our church uses an online church directory app which is a great tool. We are asking everyone to help us update it over the next few weeks. There will be a hard copy draft in the foyer and we ask that each family has someone check their information, make any changes, and initial by it. You can also see which photo we have for you. Please send any updated photos to robin.deane21@gmail.com. If you are a regular attender and want to be added, please put your information on the blank pages. If you have not been using the app and need help getting started, please see Robin.
A Congregational Meeting will be held on Sunday, December 10, at approximately 12:30 p.m. The purpose of the meeting is to present the budget for 2018.
The 2017 Christmas FLOCK (Fun-Loving Older Covenant Kids):
Saturday, December 16 at 6 pm at the church building. This is a much-anticipated, fun-filled pot luck and white elephant gift exchange. It is for our 18 and older members only, but a nursery will be provided. There is a sign-up sheet on the bulletin board in the foyer to sign up to bring food items. To participate in the “white elephant” gift exchange each person should bring a wrapped gift. The gift can be something found around the home, a “re-gift” item, or something you have purchased. Please do NOT spend more than $15 for a purchased gift.
A new nursery schedule is being made. Please consider volunteering for this important ministry.
Please let Elizabeth Albright know ASAP if you would you like to volunteer for nursery during SS or Worship. Please indicate if you can volunteer for Christmas Eve. Also, if you already volunteer, please let her know if you need to alter how often you’re scheduled and if there are dates you know you are not available.
Reminder: We will have our monthly fellowship meal tomorrow, Dec. 3rd., after worship. Please bring a main dish and either a side, salad, or dessert. A good rule of thumb for the amount to bring is to bring enough for your own family and a guest.
Food Assistance Request: On the first Sunday of each month, the SRPC Diaconate is collecting canned and dry goods for the local food pantry. Please bring an item or two to donate to the local food pantry and place it in the bin in the foyer.
The Ladies Bible Study that meets Tuesday mornings at 10am will not be meeting this week on November 21. It will resume on November 28th for a few more weeks until we break for the Christmas season.
Pie and Praise on Sunday, November 26 beginning at 7:00 PM. It will be about 45 minutes of singing, testimonies of God’s faithfulness, and prayer followed by pie and fellowship.
