This year’s Wake-a-thon is at First Church from 9pm Friday to 9am Saturday. We’ll watch a movie, play some games, run around, share food, learn from the Bible, and try to stay awake!

Afterwards, you can collect your pledges and hand them in all at once. Since you’ll need time to recover, we won’t have a regular meeting on Sunday, November 13.

PRESBYTERIAN WORLD SERVICE AND DEVELOPMENT is there!

Hurricane Matthew has struck Haiti leaving devastation in its wake. PWS&D will be responding through our local partners. Assistance in the form of food, emergency non-food items, shelter, and water and sanitation services will be provided by the ACT Alliance in Haiti. Affected communities in Cuba and the Dominican Republic are also receiving assistance through the ACT Alliance.

You can help by making a donation to PWS&D. Place your offering in an envelope and mark it PWS&D. Put your envelop number on the outside of the envelope.
