Thanks, Shoppers! We recently received an Amazon Smile donation of $21.80. Free money for doing what we all do on a regular basis – shop! If you haven’t already registered, please do so, following the directions under “Easy Giving,” below. Thanks!
Back to School While the fall term looks differently, Hayhurst Elementary still needs school supplies and weekend food for children. If you are able, please donate money only – they will be buying in bulk. You may donate on our website or mail a check, designating School Supplies. Thank you!
Kickoff Sunday On Sunday, Sep 6, we will begin a dynamic autumn! BrainStorming with Bo will return at 9:30 am (see more below) and worship will resume the 10:30 timeslot. Don’t miss it – it may be the highlight of 2020!
ImBible Study We’re finishing up our “compare and contrast” of the Koran and Old Testament stories. No experience necessary! Just join us on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 pm, using the link above.
BrainStorming with Bo Our adult Sunday School returns on September 6 at 9:30 am. Our first topic will be the book, “Finding Peace in an Anxious World” by Erin James-Brown. Note the author if you intend to order a copy; there’s more than one book with this title.
Protestant Prayer Beads We are exploring this physical method of praying during our Wednesday morning gatherings. You can join us in the Zoom room (above) or on Facebook. We’re also posting the videos on our website for those who are unable to attend – give it a try!
