'To be a joyful, loving fellowship witnessing for Christ"

From the Desk of the Pastor ...

Want to go green? Want to save green? Here's a little bit of information about thechurch's plans to go green. We haven't taken it to the Church Council yet, but here'sa preview. We are going to have GREEN WEDNESDAYS at the church. We want to

look at issues and ways to be green not only at church, but at home too.On GREEN WEDNESDAYS we will come together to be green by recycling paper andhaving receptacles for paper, plastics, and cans. We also will see how the Bible guides

us to be green.

• Hint example: Need another reason to invite friends over during the winter? Eachperson in your home generates the same amount of warmth as a 100 watt heater.

• Hint example: About 80 to 85% of the energy used to wash clothes goes towardsheating the water.

We are going to sell eco friendly shopping bags with the church's name and missionstatement on it, as well as water bottles with our message about being green.

Interested? If you want to join the GREEN WEDNESDAY TEAM call the office orsign this CHIMES article. More times and dates later.

Glory to God,

Pastor Joycejoypastor@)yahoo.com

"Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. So do you think you can build a house for me?says the Lord. Do I need a place to rest? Remember, my hand made all these things!" Acts 7: 48-50

Yes, I want to be a part of the GREEN WEDNESDAY TEAM!

In May 2008, The Stewpot became the partneragency for meal services at The Bridge HomelessAssistance Center, just three blocks south of TheStewpot. While The Stewpot's meal service moved toThe Bridge, all other client services for the homelesscontinue to be provided at The Stewpot. The diningroom at The Bridge is called the Second ChanceCafe.The Stewpot is currently serving three meals a day,
