Greetings from Church of Peace!

Music will be featured in this Sunday’s service with a guest soloist and several styles of hymns.  Join us for this inspiring service which will begin at 8:45 a.m.

No one is in the hospital that we know of.  Carol Dehnel remains in hospice care at Grandcare. Please hold Carol and her family in your prayers.

Two of our members have died during the past week. Please hold the families of Dorothy Eggers and Jane Furlong in Christian sympathy.

Has your family signed up yet for the Family Fun Night at Larry and Deb Conger’s home?  The event features a horse-drawn hayride, games, and pizza.  Each child may bring one friend.  It will be held on Saturday, September 12^th beginning at 5:00 p.m. Sign up in the narthex or call the church office to say you’ll be attending (921-8215).

September’s The Messenger will be on-line later today (www.uccchurchofpeace.org) and in the narthex on Sunday. It’s chock-full of news and information.

That’s the news from Church of Peace.

We’ll see you in church!  Pastors Jenny and Jim

A prayer for today: What a joy to know that I go through life leaning on your everlasting arms, O God.  I pray that I will feel your nearness and radiate your love.  Please bless Carol Dehnel and her family and the families of Dorothy Eggers and Jane Furlong with your hope and your peace.  Amen.

Greetings from Church of Peace!

There will be NO WORSHIP

IN THE SANCTUARY

THIS SUNDAY!

Why?

It’s time for our picnic and potluck!  We’ll meet at Taylor Park (corner of South Hickory and Ruggles Streets) at 10:00 for worship.  Bring a lawn chair if you don’t want to sit on a hard bench.  The worship will include lots of fun spiritual songs, a great children’s sermon, and reflections on the Scriptures.  We gave Roger the Sunday off because all the music will be accompanied by the guitar. Join us for this very meaningful service.  And then stay for the picnic.  If you want to bring a dish to pass, that would be great. You can join us without bringing a thing – there will be plenty for all.

Carol Dehnel is in the hospital.  Dorothy Eggers and Margaret Kellet are in hospice care.  Please remember these women and their families when you pray.

That’s the news from Church of Peace!

We’ll see you at the park.  Pastors Jenny and Jim

A prayer for today: Fill my heart with your spirit, O God.  Inspire me to follow your leading into new areas of Christian service. Show me how to reach out a loving hand or lend a listening ear. Enrich my life with your joy and peace.  I pray that you will shine your strengthening light upon Carol Dehnel, Dorothy Eggers, and Margaret Kellett. I pray in Jesus’ name.  Amen.
