Have you ever been interested in knowing how the media, sound, and live-streaming software works at Asbury? Or maybe you’ve run it in the past but could use a refresher? Come be trained on how to use it on Sunday, November 7, following the 11 AM services!
Lay Leadership Nominations
The Lay Leadership/Nominations group has started to fill vacancies on the administrative committees – Trustees, Finance, Staff-Parish Relations (SPRC) & Church Council – as well as the Spiritual Focus Team and Asbury in Mission (AIM). If you have suggestions of Asbury members who might have the skills, spiritual gifts, and experience to serve on these committees, please submit the names to nominations@asburylv.org (you may also suggest your own name). All Asbury teams need to be diverse in terms of gender, age, worship service attended, etc., so not all suggested names can be nominated. Please submit names by October 22. [NOTE: If you have previously said ‘no’ to a nomination, you will not be considered again for a position until you inform the committee of your willingness to serve]
Relief Buckets for UMCOR
Only one week left to donate! Items for Relief Buckets for UMCOR are being collected at upper and lower entrances through next Sunday, October 24. Our goal is to collect enough supplies to assemble 60 buckets. Monetary donations are also being accepted. Also, we're looking for help to get the buckets assembled. Get a list of items and more information at asburylv.org/buckets.
"Grieving Over the Holidays" Support Group
Grief is hard work and the holiday season can present unique stresses. That's why Rev. Barbara Lee & Rev. Evelyn Stupp, a retired United Methodist pastor and certified grief counselor, will hold a special program designed for those who are grieving a loved one and wondering how they will get through the holidays. Gather ideas for how you can care for yourself and hold on to hope as you navigate the season during three sessions on Tuesdays (Nov. 16, Nov. 30 & Dec. 7) from 1 to 2:30 PM in the Parlor. Entry will be through the upper doors; please park on the upper level. Registration is encouraged, but not required at asburylv.org/grief. Contact the church office (610-398-2577) or info@asburylv.org with any questions.
Upcoming Small Group Meetings:
