First Church's Updates
Weekly Update for First Church of the September 6, 2024
Zephaniah 3: 17 The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you. he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.
Did you get that? The LORD “takes great delight in you.” He rejoices over you with singing! He doesn’t just endure us. He doesn’t just put up with us. He rounds us up and wants us to be in relationship with Him!
Rally Day is Sunday. You are encouraged to wear western attire and stay following worship for fun activities to kick off the Sunday School year.
The Search Committee for the new Middle Pennsylvania District Executive brings you warm greetings in the name of Jesus Christ.
This is an important time for our denomination and our churches. It is a time that calls for God to raise up spiritually gifted individuals to help guide our pastors and our churches in His work. As part of prayerfully discerning the way forward, we are seeking input in determining what background, faith tenets and spiritual gifts the new Executive should possess.
We are inviting members of each congregation in Middle Pennsylvania to complete a survey, either in digital or paper form. A digital copy of this survey can be filled out immediately at this link: Middle PA DEM survey. (If the link does not work, please copy and paste into your browser), A paper copy is available at the Welcome Center and upon completion may be given to Pastor Dave.
The totes for the Blessing Box restocking are completely empty. Please place your donations of cleaning supplies and personal hygiene products in the Alpha Classroom. Regular or smaller containers fit better in the Blessing Box that large ones do.
M.U.M.s (Mothers Uplifting Mothers) Group will be having a garden party at Country Corner Blooms in East Freedom on Saturday, September 7th from 3-5pm.
