A Message from
Pastor Jan
September 2024
Dear Church Family and Friends,
I wish you greetings in the name of Jesus Christ. I give thanks to God for bringing me successfully through a medical crisis to continuing recovery. God is good.
Here it is mid-September, and our formal season of summer, sadly, is ending. But almost nothing is better than the autumn leaves in Pennsylvania! So, we are looking ahead to Fall and all it brings! As we look at the building of new homes so close to our church, let us make plans to reach out to our new neighbors as well as those in Pinebrook and Orwigsburg. Let us come together to make welcome bags for each new neighbor.
We had a rapid response to providing food at the Auction, Friday, September 6, raising funds for our church and cemetery. The best thing was the camaraderie we felt, working together.
On September 15, we are welcoming two new members, Marie and Anthony. Come and meet them. On Saturday, October 5 we will have the Blessing & perhaps also Forgiveness of our pets. By Monday, October 20, I hope to have enough new members for our Women’s Support Group. Invite your friends. We will talk about topics the members choose. And I as your pastor and also a psychologist will also facilitate it. Then as we reach out to families in our communities, Trunk or Treat from 2-4 pm on Saturday, October 26.
Our Confirmation class has started and is at 9:15 Sunday mornings and it promises to be educational, spiritual, and fun with the Holy Spirit leading the way.
And in October the Beam Repair is starting, so we will be in the fellowship hall for worship for a while. Advent season is around the corner, and I will be conducting a Bible Study on Wednesdays, 2-3 pm at the Orwigsburg Public Library.
Let us, during what appears to be another tumultuous election season with our state’s votes apparently making the difference, make sure that we love our neighbors, all of them.
Come and worship at Red Church this fall, praising God, building deeper friendships, and learning how to build God’s kingdom of peace.
May God’s Blessing be upon us one and All!
Yours in Christ,
Pastor Jan
