February 21, 2013

This Sunday - Our fifth annual Community Retreat was stupendous last weekend. Thanks for everyone's contributions in a variety of ways. We've already made the deposit for next year, so put the dates on your calendar now (Feb. 14-17, 2014). And don't forget our special sabbatical-culminating retreat on Labor Day Weekend. But back to the present...

 They say a storm is a-comin' again this Sunday. As usual, I will be at the chapel for worship, but take good care in choosing to drive or not. Our challenge continues to be parking. We'll send out an update by Sunday morning if it is an issue. Either way, I will be preaching on these lectionary passages. We still have a couple of Ashes to Fire books available. Let me know if you'd like one. In addition to worship on Sunday, see below... - Pastor Jeremy


Ktizo Gallery Showing: Pieceful Stitching by Charlie - Join us for our public showing of Charlie DiSante's quilting and stitching work! We'll share some coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and light snacks.
There are already several pieces of Charlie's work hanging in the gallery area, but she will have others the day of the showing this Sunday, February 24th at 4:00 pm. In the case that we do have to cancel, we have a snow date set for next Sunday (March 3).

Alabaster Offering - February is Alabaster Offering month in the Church of the Nazarene, but because of the blizzard and our retreat we will extend our Alabaster Offering by a week! Bring your Alabaster offering on the 24th or March 3, including your alabaster boxes, spare change, or any other monetary donations. The entire proceeds of the Alabaster Offering go to the building of churches and facilities to support the work of the church throughout the world.

Spanish Word of the Week - edredon, which means quilt

Missionary Books/CDs - If you have any of the missionary books and/or CDs, bring them back into the church again so that others can read them!
