The congregation has been so supportive of the NALC Disaster Response Team over the years. Due to tax implications, they can no longer receive gift cards as we have done in the past. But they will gladly continue to receive Bibles, quilts, health and school kits, and flood buckets. Thank you for your continued support.
Tickets for the May 16th Chicken BBQ Dinner are now on sale. The price is $14. See a member of the Food Service Committee to purchase tickets.
Family Hospice is now recruiting volunteers. Volunteers have the rewarding privilege of supporting patients with life-limiting illnesses and their caregivers through a significant and inevitable season of life. Hospice volunteers make an impact in various ways, such as patient visits, caregiver relief, phone calls, support of grieving family members, clerical assistance, and more. Volunteer involvement is determined by the individual's skills, desires, and schedule. Volunteers are good listeners who display flexibility, understanding, and empathy. Specialized training is provided for new volunteers. For more information, please contact Volunteer Coordinator Catherine Zimmerman at 814-505-5948 or zimmermancp@upmc.edu.
On May 24th, we celebrate the Day of Pentecost. PLEASE WEAR RED, if possible.
