Prayer Shawl Ministry Assists Tidewell Hospice @ SharePoint

Prayer shawls made by members from Emmanuel were recently donated to Tidewell Hospice located at

ShorePoint Venice Health.

Pictured are: Diana Miracle of HVV President, Ingrid Tetreault, ShorePoint Volunteers and Jadynne Berg, Volunteer and Emmanuel presenter.

Anyone interested in this ministry may contact Jadynne -

we always need new busy hands!

Stewardship is about time, talent and tithing. We are blessed to have many members that share their time and talents with us at Emmanuel. Have you ever wondered who sets up the church for every service? It’s members of the Altar Guild and they could use YOU.

Members of the Altar Guild prepare the altar and communion vessels for worship services, as well as arrange the altar area for holidays, baptisms, memorial services, and other special occasions.
Several members are on duty each month to prepare, replenish and clean up for the four worship services held each weekend
Monthly meetings are held the second Saturday of each month at 9:30 a.m. from October-April
On-the-job training provided

If interested, contact Maggie Merlino:

Our quilters are in need of colored sheets - plain or printed, any size.

They may be dropped off in the Narthex in the quilters container.

Thank you for your continued support!

Barb's Medical Minute

Did you know……

If you are feeling shaky or light-headed because of a dip in blood sugar, chug 6-8 oz. of milk. Lactose is a fast-acting carb that goes from your stomach to your intestines to be converted to blood sugar quickly.

To get more relief for your stinging, scratchy, irritated eyes, put your over-the-counter eye drops in the fridge. Cold changes their viscosity, making them better able to penetrate the surface of the eye than drops kept at room temp.

Going barefoot wears away at the fat pads on your heels and balls of your feet. This causes pain, redness, and calluses. So wear supportive slippers, sandals, or shoes around the house.

Now you do know!
