 Peckville: Tomorrow we will be making Welsh cookies.
If you can help in the process we start at 3:30.

 NEXT SUNDAY, Nov 20th. As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving this month, on Sunday Nov 20th we will have two special offerings remembering those who this holiday and every other day will not have enough food for themselves or their families by 1) Bringing canned goods for the Bread Basket, our local food pantry, and placing them at the altar blessing it and those whom they feed. 2) When we receive communion you may place a special offering for the day which will go to the world hunger fund of our Annual Conference which supports food pantries and hunger projects both within our local area and beyond.

 Next Sunday is also our food and fellowship. Please join us downstairs after the service. You can bring a dish to share if you would like.

 Advent Small Group: Pastor Amy will be leading a small group based around our upcoming Advent focus called "Christmas is not Your Birthday". The group will meet on Sundays at 5pm beginning November 27. Place TBA. Register today by placing your name and contact info in the offering plate, or by contacting Pastor Amy.

 There will be a community Thanksgiving Eve Service on Weds. Nov 23 at 7 pm at Holy Cross at St Patrick's in Olyphant. Everyone is invited to attend.
