This Week February 27, 2024

Hi Folks,

 

Enjoy the sunshine today, but batten down the hatches for the rain and wind tomorrow!

 

Lenten Quiet Hour series continues tomorrow morning, 10 A.M. in the library.  

 

This Sunday, March 3, is the Third Sunday in Lent.  We will be celebrating Holy Communion, so please have your elements handy. The scripture is John 2: 13-22.  The sermon is “So Much for Meek and Mild”.  

 

Be sure to put these dates on your calendar:  April 14 is our official 300th Anniversary Celebration Service.  April 20 is our Women’s Fellowship Shredding Event.

 

The Valley Food Bank at Spooner House – There is a list of needed items in the Alcove.  Please pick up a copy. Please use the box in the Alcove for donations. The Blessing Box also needs to be stocked, but during the winter, please do not put canned or jarred items, only things that won’t freeze. Please note that our Spooner House Meal is now the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Questions—see Holly or Gerry Fassbender.

 

FUNDS FOR CLEAN-UP BUCKETS NEEDED – 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. The need now is urgent.

 

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.

 

Let us pray.  O God of all goodness, thank you for the blessings you give us at every moment.  May we never take for granted the beauty of this life.  Amen.

 

Blessed Lent!

 

In Christ’s love,

Rev. Lucille
