ANNOUNCEMENTS

Updated 9/03/10


First-Sunday Food Offering - All nonperishable food donated this Sunday and this week will go to help hungry people in Lexington through God's Pantry.


Our Summer Reading Book Discussion is Next Sunday, Sept. 12 - This summer everyone was invited to read To Kill a Mockingbird.  Join us for a B.Y.O.L. (bring your own lunch) discussion of the novel after worship on Sunday, September 12, in Fellowship Hall.  (Cookies and beverages will be provided.)


Sunday Church School this Fall

Classes for children, youth, and adults meet each Sunday during the Church School hour (9:10-10:00 a.m.).  Next Sunday, September 12, children who are 5 years old through grade 5 begin a new class, "Friends and Family in Faith."  Youth in grades 6-12 meet in room 201/203.

For adults, beginning next Sunday, September 12, Pastor Kris Bentley will begin a two-month study of the book of Revelation in the church library (room 102).  In addition, the Beacon Class will meet in room 104 and the Darnell Bible Study will meet in the chapel (room 103).

Please join us for Sunday Church School!



Join Us for World Communion Sunday, October 3! - We will worship at 10:30 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. on World Communion Day.  Rev. Wes Allen, Professor of Worship and Preaching at Lexington Theological Seminary, will be our guest preacher for the weekend.  Come and bring your friends.


Sandwiches and Cookies - Each Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday night we provide space for homeless men from the Hope Center to sleep in Fellowship Hall.  Although the weather is warmer now, the Hope Center continues to have more men needing a place to sleep than they have space.  If you would like to help support this ministry by providing 15 sandwiches or cookies on a particular night, sign up on the "Help Bring Hope" sign-up sheet near the church office.  You may bring the sandwiches or cookies to church that morning and we will put them out for you.


Prayer Ministry - A group meets at the church regularly to pray.  Anyone wishing to request prayer may do so by leaving a written request in Sunday's offering plate or in the basket in the office labeled for prayer requests.  You may also speak to the pastor or contact the church office (252-4393).  Resources to support individuals in their practice of prayer are available in the literature rack near the church office.  Copies of the church's printed prayer list are also available in that location as well as in a brightly colored folder on the bulletin board across from the church office.

REMINDERS

Updated 08/14/10


Hearing-Assistance Devices and Large-Print Hymnals - At the beginning of the worship service, feel free to pick up one of the hearing assistance devices or large-print hymnals available near the sound booth at the back of the sanctuary.


Bad-Weather Closings - On weekdays, if the Fayette County Public Schools are dismissed because of the weather, activities and meetings at the church are cancelled.  Cancellation of worship and activities on Sundays will be announced on local radio and television stations.


God's Pantry - God's Pantry is in need of non-perishable items such as canned goods (especially canned soups and canned fruit), boxed or packaged dry stock, bags of rice, or other packaged grains or pastas.  Please bring your donations to the church when you come to worship service on the first Sunday of every month.  Make sure that the dates on the food items you bring in have not expired.  There is a bright blue barrel outside of the church office which is labeled with a big sign that says "Give Hope."  Place your donations in this barrel and know that your gift gives sustenance and hope to another.


Join Us for Fellowship! - Coffee, doughnuts, and good conversation are available in the front hallway of the education building after the Church School hour and before worship.


Church School Classes for All Ages - Classes meet 9:10 to 10:00 a.m. on Sunday.  We have three adult classes that meet on the first floor of the education building.  Children's classes meet on the second floor of the education building.  Our church nursery is available during church school and worship.


Deadline - Please give any information for the Sunday bulletin to the church office by the previous Wednesday.


Lions Recycle for Sight Program - Do you have eyeglasses you are no longer using?  If so, please bring them to the church and place them in the Lions Recycle box located in the hallway near the church office.  Your unwanted glasses will help someone see better!


Education Coupons - Remember to save your "Education" coupons found on General Mills products like cereal boxes and many other items.  Place them in the box on the bulletin board outside the rear entrance to the Sanctuary.  The money raised from the coupons goes to help children in need and it is greatly appreciated.


Changes - Please notify the church office of any change in your address, phone number, etc., so that our congregation records can be kept up to date.


Kroger Cards - Please remember that you can purchase Kroger cards from any choir member.  Use your card to pay for your groceries or gasoline at any Kroger and Kroger returns 4% of the cost of your purchases to the church.  There is no cost to you except that you must make your purchases at Kroger and use the "gift" card.  When the balance on your card gets low, you may increase its balance at Kroger's service counter.


Woodlawn Home for Children in Danville - Jean Cox makes occasional visits to the home.  If you would like to donate any items (school supplies, clothing for boys and girls -- teenage and younger, toiletries, etc.) for the children, please give them to Jean and she will see that they are delivered to the home.  Your donations are greatly appreciated!
