Coming in the weeks ahead: 

Calling all PERSONAL MINISTRIES committee members. An emergency meeting of this committee is being called to discuss volunteer staffing positions and to introduce you to the new Personal Ministries Chairperson. We will meet Tuesday evening, February 9, at 7:00pm in the garden room. It is imperative that all members be there in as far as is possible. Thank you!

The Worthington chapter of Scioto Ridge Job Networking Group is going strong! SRJNG is a faith-based organization dedicated to help mid-career professionals find good jobs. We feel that we can serve our members by helping them expand their network of business contacts in order to discover job opportunities that are best found through networking. Most jobs are filled before they even get posted so this is a great way to be one step ahead of the competition. Anyone is welcome to attend our bi-monthly meetings. We meet on the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays of the month from 6:30-9:00ish.

 

Who's Coming to Dinner? Save the date of February 27 to participate in this delightful event. Host someone in your home for a Sabbath afternoon meal or be a guest in someone's home…here's the catch: you don't know who you'll be hosting until the knock on the door and you won't know who's house you'll be visiting until you arrive! Sound like fun? Then be sure to sign-up using the forms on the table in the narthex.

Now available, the 2010 "Faces of Hope" Calendar.  Our 2009 Sabbath school offerings are directed to the LIGHTHOUSE ACADEMY in Kenya. This Christian school is owned and operated by the family of Kennedy Dulo and their non-profit organization, Rafiki Africa Foundation.  The school is currently raising funds through calendar sales to add on a kitchen and dining room for the students who currently take their meals outside on the ground.  These calendars feature pictures of the children who attend LIGHTHOUSE ACADEMY and villagers from the local community.  You will find these calendars in the narthex of the church and are available to you for free. If you would like to make a donation, we would be happy to receive them and pass that along to Kennedy Dulo.
