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.
5th Sunday Fellowship Meal this month. Please sign up at the Welcome Center so we have an idea of how many to set up for.
Love Feast on October 6th will have childcare available.
