October 25th
The Twenty-First Sunday after Pentecost
(Proper 25)
Almighty and everlasting God, increase in us the
gifts of faith, hope, and charity; and, that we may obtain what you
promise, make us love what you command; through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever
and ever. Amen.
Job 42:1-6, 10-17
Psalm 34:1-8, (19-22)
Hebrews 7:23-28
Mark 10:46-52
8am: Holy Eucharist
Our early service is unaccompanied by music and usually lasts about 50 minutes. Coffee and fellowship are offered before the service begins in the parish hall, while the sanctuary is available for quiet prayer. Another coffee hour follows the service.
9am: Sunday School
In addition to Nursery care for children under three, there are two classrooms of Godly Play offered from pre-school through 2nd grade. 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders are invited to their own classroom where they'll study the Episcopal Prayerbook and Catechism in a pre-confirmation type class. One the first Sunday of most months, a special Children's Chapel event is offered for all kids. This year is brand new for us, so come early (or stay late of you're an eight O'clocker) and join us!
10am: Holy Eucharist
Our late morning service is accompanied by organ music, congregational singing, and the offerings of our adult mixed choir. On the first, and occasionally second, Sunday of each month, Soul Purpose, our contemporary music band, accompanies the liturgy. Nursery care is available for our youngest members and guests. A festive coffee hour for children and adults follows the Eucharist.

General Announcements
Knitting
Ministry needs small (stuffed) animals. Last Sunday there were 43 prayer shawls, fleece, and knitted blankets
for foster care blessed. We need small stuffed animals, 5 ½-7" to attach to the
foster care blankets. Larger ones are difficult to attach. Please no Christmas
or Easter animals. We have ordered teddy bears that are $ 10.20 per dozen. If anyone is
interested in donating animals or money to buy more, this would be very much
appreciated.
New
coffee mugs with church logo are here! Some will
be in the church kitchen to use for coffee hours, and the rest are for sale to use
at home. If you would like to purchase one (or more) they are $ 6 apiece. There
will be an envelope for money collection in the box of mugs, on the stage, in
the Parish Hall. Please help yourself.
October is 'canned soup month' for the Food Bank. Thank you for your generosity!
