News for the Week of August 1
LOOSE COIN OFFERING
On the first Sunday of every month, we dedicate all loose coins in the offering
plates to feed the hungry. The money will go to the Presbytery of Chicago
Hunger Fund. You may also give currency and checks to the Hunger Fund
when clearly designated.
CARERS CORNER
In August, CARERS will be collecting baby food, formula and diapers. Please
place your donations in baskets on the piano in the fellowship hall.
HUMAN SCENE
The Human Scene continues to meet over the summer, in the upstairs parlor, at
9:00 a.m. Sundays but with a more informal format.
NEW MEMBERS DINNER
A new members' salad supper will be hosted by the membership committee at
the home of Mike and Bev Aieta, 191 Michaux Rd. from 7-9 p.m. on Friday,
August 13. Any member who's joined RPC in the last three years is invited.
Babysitters will be on hand to entertain and help look after children, so feel free
to bring the whole family. If you're planning on attending, please RSVP to
Roberta Gates at gates366@yahoo.com
CHEERFUL GIVERS
This summer, be sure to take a look at the Cheerful Givers Board located in the
hallway, next to the library. For the next three months, the needs of the Prayer
Garden will be displayed on the board. Feel free to choose an item from the
board, pull the card out of the corresponding pocket, and make a donation in
honor of a loved one’s birthday, anniversary, or other cheerful celebration.
Remember, the dollar amount you choose to donate does not need to cover the
entire cost of the item; it can be a contribution toward that item. Your Cheerful
Gifts will be ready just in time for autumn planting in the Prayer Garden!
