Volunteer Opportunity - As a consequence of some budget cuts, the Jr Warden Division is taking on the weekly task of cleaning the church offices, bathrooms, Clardy Hall and sanctuary (approximately $4,000/year). This was effective 1 March 2021.
So as not to over burden any one person or persons, volunteers are needed to lighten the load. Instructions, materials and consumables will be provided.
•Volunteering your time is one of the Three T’s - Time, Talent and Treasure for the church. Cleaning teams will be 2 to 3 people at a time.
•Experience has shown that the cleaning goes very quickly once started (less than 2hrs). Wiping down the church for the Sunday service will be a part of the cleaning effort. Please volunteer, your church needs you.
Contact the Jr. Warden, Frank E. McKee to volunteer

Why these bitter words of the dying, O brethren, which they utter as they go hence? I am parted from my brethren. All my friends do I abandon, and go hence. But whither I go, that I understand not, neither what shall become of me yonder; only God, who hath summoned me knoweth. But make commemoration of me with the song: Alleluia.
If thou hadst shown mercy unto man, O man, that same mercy shall be shown unto thee there; and if on an orphan thou hast shown compassion, the same shall there deliver thee from want. If in this life the naked thou hast clothed, the same shall give thee shelter there, and sing the psalm: Alleluia.
With ecstasy we are inflamed if we but hear that there is light eternal yonder; that there is Paradise, wherein every soul of Righteous Ones rejoiceth. Let us all, also, enter into Christ, that all we may cry aloud thus unto God: Alleluia.

Collect
O God, from whom all good proceeds: Grant that by your inspiration we may think those things that are right, and by your merciful guiding may do them; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

The Daughters of the King support your prayer needs and wishes. Each Sunday a prayer team will be available to pray with you after the Worship Service in the choir area after the 10:30 service. If you would like additional information, please see a DOK member.
They also have a intercessory prayer box on the table in the Narthex to deposit prayer requests. Prayer request cards may be found in the pews and beside the box in the Narthex. Daughters pray daily. All prayers are confidential. Each person is prayed for one month. If you wish for continued prayers, please complete another request card or contact a Daughter.

The obvious objection is: Doesn’t the Bible tell us that God loves righteousness and is angered by sin? If I do something evil, doesn’t that change God?
