Happenings - January 6, 2026

Food Support Programs


There's another great sale at Price Chopper this week. The Monday and Thursday food support programs at our church would love donations of pasta, pasta sauce, tuna and peanut butter. The sale goes through Saturday.


Food can be dropped off on Thursday from 10:15am to noon or on Sunday morning, or email the office and a time to meet you will be set up.


During these challenging times, let us come together to serve our neighbors. Thank you!

In Memory of Christine Chapin


We fondly remember our friend Chris Chapin and hold her beloved family in our prayers as we join them in grief and in gratitude for her life of love.


A Memorial Service will be held at Old Parish on Saturday, January 24th at 11:00am.


The obituary can be found here.

Steeple Lighting


The Steeple is lighted for the month of January by Diana, Chris and Thomas Williams. Sending warmth and light to our Sheffield family and friends.



Future Steeple Lighting Sponsorships are available beginning in March.


It is a lovely way to honor a friend, an occasion, a memory or loved one.


Friends, be assured that 2026 Stewardship Pledge cards are still being received! If you have not yet pledged, please know there is still time. Thank you for all your generous support.


Financial donations are welcome during Sunday worship, via the donate button here, or by mail:
