We hope you’ll join us this Sunday at 10:15 a.m. as Rev. Steve shares the message, “Forbidden or Permitted on Earth.” Please be sure to thank Steve for serving as our interim pastor over the past four months. He has helped hold things together during this season of transition, and I am deeply grateful for the stability he has provided.
Rev. Robert Reeves (Pastor Robert) will be unloading his U-Haul trucks on Saturday morning, and help is needed. The church that had planned to assist us has experienced a sudden death in their congregation and will now be attending services on Saturday, so they are no longer able to help. We will share the exact time as soon as we know.
Pastor Robert will also be holding Meet & Greet times this coming week, and there are still a few openings available. Please use the link below to sign up. If none of the available times work for you, let me know what days and times do, and Pastor Robert will make sure to connect with you. These are scheduled as 15-minute time slots, so please keep them light. The purpose is simply for him to learn your name and get to know a little about you, your family, and your background. We want to be careful not to overwhelm him with complaints or counseling needs during these visits.
We’ve also been asked to encourage everyone to bring reusable coffee cups, water bottles, or similar items to use in the Gathering Place on Sunday mornings. This will help reduce waste and save money, as we go through a large number of disposable cups.
Pastor Robert’s first Sunday preaching with us will be September 13 at 10:15 a.m. Following the service, we will have a small reception in the Gathering Place with cookies and punch. Please sign up on Sunday if you are able to provide cookies or ingredients for punch.
We will honor both Pastor Robert and Pastor Steve on Sunday, October 14, with a potluck luncheon for Pastor Appreciation Sunday, so please save the date. A sign-up sheet will be available soon.
Please note that the church office will be closed Monday in observance of Labor Day. Our fall and winter office hours will begin Tuesday, from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
