THANK-YOU: I would like to thank all members of the congregation for their

support with the recent loss of Deb. Many have given to us in so many different ways. Whether it was prayers, food or sometimes just talking. Some have given in

different quiet ways that only God knows. We as a family thank you. The giving

has helped our family as we try to find a new normal. Thank you. From: Wayne, Megan and Will, Joel, and Curtis.

LITTLE FREE PANTRY: The focus of the Little Free Pantry is the slogan of

‘take what you need, share what you can’. We, the Deacons, want to be a

part of this project by donating every month to the Pantry. Any time donations are made it is used quickly. There is a great need in our little

town. There is a box located in the Foyer to collect non-perishable food and personal hygiene items and we ask that you help us to fill this. This will be

an on-going monthly collection, so please share what you can whenever you can. FROM THE DEACONS: If you have automatic debits from your bank account to pay for

insurance, cable TV, taxes, or mortgage, then you understand the “PAR” principle. It means regular contributions throughout the year. Those who use the PAR system for their church

giving, find it a convenient way to exercise their regular commitments to the church, month by month. You too can participate in this program. A PAR Form was placed in your mail slot last

Sunday with more details and instructions. Completed PAR Forms can be left in the Deacon

mail slot.

At-home Faith Formation Tip - In the book Liturgy of the Ordinary (IVP 2016), Tish Warren writes, “We learn the craft of holiness day by day in the living of a particular life . . . we are part

of God’s big vision and mission—the redemption of all things—through the earthy craft of living out our vocation, hour by hour, task by task. I want to do the big work of the kingdom, but I

have to learn to live it out in the small tasks before me.” How might this insight change your

perspective on the small tasks of your daily life? (Tip from Faith Formation Ministries; crcna.org/FaithFormation)

Peer Learning Worship Groups - these are forming now. Join an online discussion group or

start your own group. Worship Ministries provides free study materials. Check it out at network.crcna.org/worship/worship-peer-learning-groups-forming and email us at
