Hallowtide Donations

November 1 - All Saints Sunday!

All Saints Sunday: We will have one service at 9 am on Sunday, November 1, 2026 to celebrate the Feast of All Saints. It will be quite a celebration! We will collect the Rooted in Abundance pledges, welcome our new Minister of Music, observe the Holy Eucharist using Rite I, hear the children sing, have the choir back, and learn from an intergenerational sermon.

Bagels & Books

The next book to be read for Bagels and Books is My Beloved World by Sonia Sotomayor. Library copies are available to borrow in the church office. David Livingston is the discussion leader.

Open Cupboard Current Needs

Did you know? SNAP benefits generally cannot be used to purchase personal hygiene products like deodorant.

That means many of our neighbors have to go without—or make the impossible choice between putting food on the table and taking care of basic personal needs.

That’s where our community can make a difference. 💙

The picture shows the special needs this week.
