Happy Ninth Sunday after Pentecost (9/24). The first lesson is the prophet Isaiah speaking to the kingdom of Judah, sounding a lot like Amos and Hosea did speaking to the Kingdom of Israel. The second lesson, from the Letter to the Hebrews, teaches us about faith. The Gospel lesson is Jesus telling us that our heart will be where we place the most value.

Time to remember to wear our Name Tags!
While we were more concerned with other issues (e.g., the pandemic), we got out of the habit of wearing our name tags (They would have been helpful when everybody's face was behind a mask!). It's time to make them a practice again. Please remember to wear your name tag each Sunday at Church!

Bakery Donations from Giant Need More Publicity So That More Folks Get Helped

Food Pantry Ministry Evolving to Meet Changing Conditions
As the needs of the hungry in our area change, and the best way to help the food pantries we assist changes along with that, we are adjusting how we ask for your support. We will continue gratefully to accept offerings of money from parishioners, but we will be adding an option to make a food donation at the Church as well. Starting now, our Outreach Coordinator, Leigh Oppelt, will make known particular items we are asking be donated for a particular month We are collecting manual can opener.

with you to use this Sunday.
