Congregational Update
January 28, 2021
We are in the middle of our Souper Bowl of Caring campaign, the food drive sponsored by Youth around the country each year.

There are two ways to donate: at the church or online. 
 
If you shop online, you can choose grocery items listed on the site or a monetary amount. Everything online is going to the Real Life Children's Ranch and the items donated at the church are being split between them and Cross Ministries. 

The link to our church's page for the Souper Bowl of Caring is listed below. The link will show the Real Life Children's Ranch as the organization we are sponsoring, and everything you donate will go directly to them.

Click for the link to donate to the Souper Bowl here.
  

If you would like to donate at the church, items can be dropped off during the week or on Sundays.
 
The campaign ends on Super Bowl Sunday, February 7th, and the Youth Group will be sorting the food after church.
 
Thank you for your support!

A little bit about our music this week:
The last Sunday of January brings us a guest alto, R. Russell McFee, to sing in duet with our own Lynne Spotts. Their second song is one we all love, and I was surprised to fine out a little about its poet, Jill Jackson. Jackson writes, “When I attempted suicide [in 1944] and I didn’t succeed,” she said, “I knew for the first time unconditional love—which God is. You are totally loved, totally accepted, just the way you are. In that moment I was not allowed to die, and something happened to me, which is very difficult to explain. I had an eternal moment of truth, in which I knew I was loved, and I knew I was here for a purpose.” From this emerged the poem, Let There Be Peace on Earth. At least hum along and re-experience the simplicity and hope of our vocal benediction. See you Sunday.
