Good Afternoon!

What a beautiful day! I hope you had a marvelous Labor Day Weekend! Those who have gone back to school, I hope your first days back have been filled with joy and anticipation! 

This Saturday is our  Annual Yard Sale! Check it out or volunteer! 
8am-2pm. Clean up people are always appreciated! Money is provided to the church through project faith. 

This Sunday, we celebrate Rally Day! It is true--church never stops! However, once a year we start up new classes for our children and begin another year in the narrative lectionary. 

When you come to church this Sunday, expect a couple of things. First, an all church breakfast at 8 am. Second, a wonderful uplifting church service, celebrating God's creation and the joy of creating with God. I would also like to draw your attention to the banner. You will see the words, "Through our hearts with our hands!" above a cross. This Sunday, we will encourage our children to place their hand prints along with any adults who would like to participate. This will happen after worship. In addition, We are inviting our families to play with us after church. Children will do games with Me, while parents socialize and have an opportunity to ask questions for the programs at church. It will be a wonderful day at church! 

 Lastly, please notice our new missions initiative. We are participating in a nationwide effort to provide clean up kits for the Harvey survivors. We are also contributing to the UCC Harvey Relief fund. I am excited to see how our community rises to action. 


Have a blessed day! 

Blessings, 

Rev. Charity Omartian 


Opportunity to join the Church!! Oct 15th 
Please Talk to Rev. Charity or John Plourde about joining. It does not matter how long you have been coming to the church. Nor does it matter what time of the year you come. If you would like to join, please let us know. Also, if you are one of our summer people who come every year, then I would encourage you to reach out too, because we can set up a date in the summer for folks who cannot make the October and April dates. 

Membership is a wonderful way to have voice in what happens in the church in meetings and annual meetings. Everyone is welcome to bring their gifts and talents, but membership makes a commitment to using those gifts. Have another church you participate in, well you can be an associate member here! Everyone is Welcome!!!! You can reply to this email to say yes I would like to join!!! 
Mark Thallander is coming for a third visit!
September 24, 2017 

Mark will share in his ministry of music with us during worship. We will take a collection for the Mark Thallander Foundation. This foundation provides ministry through music all around the United States. It is a wonderful foundation for us to support.
