Dear Folks,

Hope you are well!  Let’s hope the groundhog brings good news on Thursday!

This Sunday, February 5, is the Fifth Sunday after Epiphany.  The scripture is Matthew 5:13-16. The sermon is “Flavorful”.  We will be celebrating Holy Communion, so be sure to have your elements ready.  The service will be on-site, and Facebook live-streamed.  

Sunday, February 12 will be Women’s Fellowship Sunday and February 19 will be Scout Sunday.

VALLEY REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT PROJECT will soon be settling a well vetted refugee family! Volunteers needed! Donations are welcome! Please drop your donation in the basket on Sundays or use the on-line option on our website. For more info, contact the church.

Women’s Fellowship is collecting monetary donations for Church World Service Clean up buckets. Checks may be made out to HCC with “Buckets” on the memo line. You can drop your donation in the bucket on Sundays or you can use the on-line option on our website. Thank you.

The Valley Food Bank at Spooner House Items Needed: shelf stable milk and powdered milk, pancake mix and syrup, peanut butter and jelly, canned fruit and applesauce, garbanzo and navy beans, canned tuna and chicken, oatmeal and other cereals, and pasta sauce.  There is a box in the Alcove and the “wishing well” in Fellowship Hall for donations. Also, our Blessing Box needs to be stocked, but for the winter, please only put in items that are not canned or in glass or would be harmed if frozen. Please be generous!

Please continue to support HCCUCC with your contributions.  Now more than ever, our mission of being the beacon of love and light on the Huntington Green and beyond is vital. Contributions sent in by mail are welcome. Please consider donating at our website, www.huntingtonucc.org. Electronic Fund Transfer giving is also available. Please email the church, hcc@snet.net if you would like a form to set that up. Any way you give is a blessing and is greatly appreciated.

O God, thank you for the comfort, strength, and love that you offer us every moment.  May we freely receive and freely give.  Amen.

In Christ’s love,

Rev. Lucille
