Gluten Free Wafers are available for communion.  Please let the pastor know that is your preference.

The Outreach Committee is once again accepting donations of plastic grocery bags to be made into “plarn” (plastic yarn) which will then be turned into mats for homeless individuals.  Please look for the box labeled “plarn” in the multi use room or speak with Lila Will for more information.

There is one Gazebo Lenten Artistic Display panel that still has opportunities to get creatively involves.  Please speak with Bruce.

2018 Giving Statements are in your mailboxes.  If you did not receive one, please contact Mary G. or Denise.

Thanks to Rev. Bruce Weber for leading worship today!

A reminder that if Alcona Schools are closed due to weather/road conditions, all events here at church are canceled as well.

Have you ever watched the ushers on Sunday morning and thought to yourself ‘That doesn’t look too hard’ or considered volunteering to usher but knew you didn’t want to help at communion?  Have you ever looked at the coffee hour treats and considered providing some, but you only like to eat Oreos?  Or don’t want to deal with the coffee pots?  There is a place for you!!!  Please see Sandy K., Shelley C., Lila W., Bruce W., Diane J., or Karen C., for more information.

Pr. Chrisy will be starting her Continuing Education trip with a few vacation days on either end on Thursday afternoon, January 17. She will return to work January 31.  If you are in need of pastoral care during that time, please contact Rev. Laraine Sundin or Denise
