We are a people who put the Table at the center of our worship.  A people who believe that this table is open to everyone.  Why not tell people that when we are inviting them to our church.  We are the church where the table is open to all every week, not just members.  Everyone is welcome.  That is one thing we can tell our friends as we invite them.  We are a Mission First congregation that has an open and welcoming Table. Come to Christ table where all are welcome. Will you invite someone to experience that welcome at church next week?

Please bring canned food for Ashland Christian Emergency Services to our service.

You can also bring your favorite blanket and help decorate our sanctuary as we receive a special offering for Church World Service Blanket+ Fund. Each blanket costs $10. Watch this video on our Facebook page from worship yesterday to learn more.


 

The Fellowship Class will meet at 9 am in the Loving Building. Everyone is invited. There will be no other Sunday School classes, no Children's Choir practice and no Fellowship Cafe this week. Children Worship & Wonder will take place during worship. 


 


craig springs gazeboCamp News
Hello!  I am Amy Jones, one of the Adult Advisers for Nature Camp at Craig Springs Camp & Retreat Center.  Many of you may be familiar with Nature Camp already, but if not, Nature Camp provides an opportunity for at-risk (underprivileged) children (ages 9-11) to experience a week of a fun, safe, Christian camp, and also provides an opportunity for high-school age counselors to develop skills for ministry and service. We need your help!
 

Counselors pay registration fees to be a part of this camp, which cover the cost of room and board.  The campers do not pay at all to come to this camp, and this has created a financial hardship for the camp as a whole. 

We have started a fundraising campaign at gofundme.

Please click on the link above to learn how to read more about how you can help underprivileged and at-risk children in Virginia to experience a safe, God-filled and FUN summer camp experience! 

 


Disciples Women News
Disciples Women will be collecting a special offering for the Church World Blanket+ Fund on April 19 and 26.  Ten dollars will purchase a blanket to help someone in need.

 

Please make checks payable to Disciples Women and write blanket fund on the memo line.  Checks may be given to Barbara Jean Goodman or placed in the offering on Sunday. 

 

May we all reach out and provide "coverage" to others through this united program with Church World Services.
