Children of all ages are invited to Zoom Sunday School, each Sunday morning from 9:45–10:15. Please join us for songs, Bible stories, prayers, crafts, and more!

As word spreads about Zoom Sunday School, we’ve been blessed to have participants from as far away as Washington State and Costa Rica. We will be joined at least occasionally in the new year by Sid (aka Luke Van Marter), who no doubt will continue to make us smile as he completely misunderstands the day’s Bible lesson.

Teachers are Eva Stimson, Jerry Van Marter and Bev Machin. Please contact Eva or Jerry if you are interested in being part of the teaching team in 2022 or if you want to be added to the list to receive the weekly Zoom invitations.

If you have any questions or comments, please call or email Eva Stimson or Jerry Van Marter.

SOUPER POOPER BOWL Sunday is coming up, Feb. 13. Yes you caught a change to the title of this event. We have always collected non-perishable goods for UCHM. This year we are adding the collection of diapers and wipes for the months of January and February. This will be a drive thru event but we want you to feel free to park and visit if you feel comfortable. We are hoping for a good turnout in support of UCHM. Flyers will be delivered to homes and businesses in the neighborhood.

You may also place donations in the Narthex with a UCHM tag. If you are not able to get them to church call Claudia Foulkes, 502-939-4129, and she will arrange for a pick up at your home. 

Spirit of Sophia presents:  TENDING A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOURSELF:

Learning to balance your own self-care and growth with the needs of a thirsty world.

A Virtual Mini Retreat for Women on Saturday, January 29th from 10:00 am to 12:15 pm EST

Cost: $55 (partial scholarships are available)

Join us to explore taking greater responsibility for being fully alive. What do I need to see about myself? What keeps my pain stuck and my voice at times silent? Am I able to say “yes” to life’s necessary pruning? Rumi teaches, “Stop looking the other way. Look inside yourself. You already have the precious mix that will make you well.”

We encourage you to take this Saturday and set it aside for you. If at all possible, plan to spend time in solitude after our time with Paula – perhaps using a spiritual practice that takes you deep within to reflect on the wisdom shared and what has risen up in you.
