Here's your chance!! Many of you have asked how you can help with the 200th Anniversary planning. Well, here it is! In the Narthex there is a sign-up poster for all of the different areas that need volunteers. Take your pick! Committees are now forming for Worship, Music, Sunday School/Youth, Timeline/History, Publicity, "Party", Building, Budget/Finance. Sign-up now!
Interchurch Pantry Needs Interchurch is in need of the following items for their pantry: cereal, tuna, egg noodles, creamed soups, deodorant, shampoo, dish detergent, blankets for winter. Donations can be brought to the church office or taken directly to Interchurch at 114 East Gambier Street, Mount Vernon. Thank you for your help.
Volunteers are needed to provide baked goods for the fellowship table for some of the remaining Sundays during the summer. There is a sign-up sheet on the refreshment table in Fellowship Hall. Thank you to those who have already volunteered to supply a treat. Your generosity is very much appreciated! We will be organizing the September to June schedule soon for host/hostesses and bakers for the 8:30 AM Service and the 11:00 AM Service. Please see Carole Conway if you would be willing to help on a rotation or occasional basis in this important fellowship ministry.
Older Adult Ministry Liaison Opportunity The Presbytery is looking for an adult ministry liaison to share information with about events, articles, books, etc., that perhaps will help the church in this vital ministry. Such a person could also assist by pointing out the church's needs and sharing educational, spiritual, and fellowship programs and activities that are being held at the church. If you are interested, please contact the church office at 393-1326.
Nametags please keep them on. Our church nametags are an important tool in helping members and especially visitors get to know us and feel welcome. Please wear your nametag during fellowship time before and after worship.
Help Needed for Compassion Ministry We are looking for volunteers to prepare meals for families in the church who have lost a family member, had surgery, given birth, etc. If you would like to help, contact Valerie Donnelly at 393-3003 or e-mail her at arthouse@core.com.
Nursery Volunteers needed! If you would like to volunteer to work in the Nursery on a Sunday morning, please contact the church office at 393-1326. |

Prayer Ministries
James 5:16b
"The prayer of a righteous person has great power in its effects."
D o you have a desire to draw closer to God? Do you feel disconnected? Have you been seeking a way to serve? There are currently three opportunities here at FPC to do all of these things.
Prayer Chain - There is room for you on our church's prayer chain. The prayer chain uses a phone tree and prays for acute needs that are brought to our attention. |
|
Pastoral Prayer Partners - Believing the words of the Apostle James from above, I believe that it is imperative that we pray together earnestly for the ministry of this church. God has great plans for this church and its ministry; however, without prayer these plans could be thwarted. If you are passionate about prayer, this is an opportunity not to be taken lightly. Please contact Deb Paxton for more information.
Please consider whether God is calling you to participate in any of these ministries. These prayer ministries are and will be an increasingly vital part of the ongoing life and health of this congregation and its ministry. |
