Good morning parish,
The northern lights last night were spectacular! I hope you were able to enjoy them. This Sunday, we will celebrate the missional work of the United Women of Faith and the healing gifts of generosity they bring into the human family. Our message will be centered on John Wesley’s Three Simple Rules: Do no harm – Do good – Stay in love with God.
There will be an offering opportunity for the UWF World Thank Offering. I often remind folks to give as you can, not as you can’t. We may not be able to support every request that comes along, but each gives as the heart guides. Please continue in prayer for sisters and brothers recovering from the twin hurricanes in the southeast of our nation, including many from our own parish.
Dates to remember:
Church Public Supper & Silent Auction (10/19, 5 pm);
Annual Church Conferences (10/20, 2:30 pm, Lisbon UMC);
Bishop’s Day on the District (10/25, 5 pm dinner/6 pm program);
