We are a Community of Faith,
being Transformed by God's Grace,
Inspiring People to Become Disciples of Jesus.
We hope this newsletter finds you well. Take a look at all that is happening in the Linglestown Life community below:
 

'Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:7-10 NIV


This is the first of two messages on Jesus' two 'I am' statements in John 10. This Sunday, the Rockville campus will join in worship at the Linglestown campus where Jefferson Davenport will be preaching at 8:30am and Pastor Jason Mackey will be preaching at 10:00.

Spring Clean Up!


In preparation for Spring, we are going to clean the debris and untouched areas of the gardens surrounding Linglestown Life. We plan on doing this on March 10th and 11th from 10am to 2pm with a rain date/weekend of March 17th and 18th. Please bring your own equipment since the items at the church are limited. Gloves and trowels will most likely be needed. Sign up here or use the QR code in the below image.

 

Holy Land 2024


Join Pastor Jason on the trip of a lifetime to Israel, Bethlehem, the Galilee and much more.  This 10 day trip will run

Feb 5-14, 2024.  There will be an informational meeting on Wednesday, March 15 at 6 pm in

Room 105 (the old hospitality suite behind the sanctuary).

 

LAHMBs Needs


The LAHMBs (an outreach helping parenting teens and families in need) has an immediate need for 0-3 month boys and girls winter clothing. We are also low on clothing sizes 4T-6 boys and girls. All sizes are still being accepted. We are also in need of strollers (no joggers please) for several clients. Please share with your friends and neighbors. All these blessings help others right in our own community. Please contact the church office at Office@LinglestownLife.org or 717-545-5200 to coordinate a drop-off time.

 

Linglestown Life Cafe Ministry Needs You!


The Café Ministry provides a warm and welcoming place for more than 100 Linglestown Christian Nursery School (LCNS) students and their families to connect with each other and with the church on our Linglestown Campus. During the LCNS school year, Monday through Thursday and most Fridays we greet LCNS families, visitors and Church visitors. We encourage, help, and pray building relationships with all who enter and cross our threshold.


There are a few ways you can serve in The Café Ministry:


1. Bake for The Café. You can bring your baked items in whenever it’s convenient for you and we’ll use it the next day or freeze it for a day when it’s needed! Please mark them “For the Café Ministry” and place on the kitchenette counter at the Linglestown Campus. Due to food allergies, we kindly ask that baked goods be tree nut and peanut free.


2. Donate Individually Packaged Child Snacks. You can bring boxes of snacks in whenever it is convenient for you. Please mark them “For the Café Ministry” and place on the kitchenette counter at the Linglestown Campus. Due to food allergies, we kindly ask

that snacks be tree nut and peanut free.


3. Become a Host/Hostess greeting guests and serving coffee and snacks. Join our team and greet guests one day a month, every other week, weekly, or more. We welcome whatever schedule suits your interest and availability! We do ask that Cafe Host/Hostesses obtain Safe Sanctuary Clearances.



We encourage you to come check out The Café and shadow our team one morning between 8:30am-10:30am and 11:30am-12:45pm. We are always happy to welcome new team members!

Help Setting Up Chairs Needed


We are in need of volunteers to help set up the chairs for worship on Saturday afternoons or evenings. Two or more people can do this and it can be done in as little as 30 minutes. Please contact the church office at Office@LinglestownLife.org or 717-545-5200 if you are able to help with this. Thank you in advance!

 

Linglestown EUB Cook Book


In the past when our church was planning on expanding the building, some members put together a cook book to sell in order to pay for the expenses. Each week we will share a recipe or page from the cook book, which was printed in 1948 by the Willing Workers Class of the Evangelical United Brethren Church of Linglestown, PA. The bulletin board inside Janie’s Place will also have the recipes shared. The original cook book is in the office of the Director of Communications (next to the stage in fellowship hall) along with the rest of the historical books and documents the church has. If anyone would like to see them, just let Nick Sallade know!


Also, it has come to my attention that there was at least one other cookbook in the late 1950's or early 1960's, but I have found no copies of it here. If anyone knows anything about it or has a copy, I would love to see it and turn it digital!


This week we finish the cakes and add the frostings, they can be found here.
