Blessing of the Animals Today
4 pm - Courtyard
Choir (Children and
Youth) Practice Today: Our choir needs more musicians (singers and
instrumentalists) than just elementary age singers. All ages are invited to
join us after Sunday Worship in Room 209 as we work on learning new canons
(rounds) and rehearse our song, “If I Were a Butterfly,” and the ringing of the
melody line for “All Things Bright and Beautiful” which we will sing today at
the Blessing of the Animals.
Dear Readers: Book
Group is meeting on Tuesday, October 8, at 7:30 pm, discussing the last two

for options. Happy reading! – Kay

“Sandwich:
Volunteers are needed to place sandwich meat between two slices of bread and
place in a baggie! That’s how you can help feed our city’s hungry children.
Come to Fellowship Hall at 6 pm Wednesday and truly make a difference in a
child’s life.
