One More Week
 
 
There is one more week to bring in school supplies for the disadvantaged students of North Grade and South Grade Elementary Schools. Let's show them the love of God with pencils and some other items they need!

A More Excellent Way
Yesterday's daily scripture reading gives us something to contemplate between Sundays, as Paul in 1 Corinthians suggests "a still more excellent way." Pastor Jason considers it on his blog and Rev. Donna Schaper writes about it in yesterday's "Still Speaking" devotional. How have you experienced the path of love? What obstacles have you faced in traveling it?
 
Reaching Out

There is a sense that something special is going on at our church and we do not want to keep it to ourselves. We want to share it! Over the next few months, you will be hearing about new ways that we are going to reach out and share who we are with our community. We will be needing your help! Read more here.
 
 
We're On Facebook!
If you are on Facebook, head over to our Facebook page and "Like" us to keep up with what is going on at First Congregational United Church of Christ "between Sundays."

 







  
Next Sunday...
Next Sunday we continue engaging the letter to the Ephesians as Paul shares practical advice on how to live together as a community of faith.
