3. Monthly Evening Worship and Potluck Dinner

Sunday, October 3, in the Chapel
5:00 p.m. Worship, 6:00 p.m. Potluck Dinner

Worship - In the Beatitudes, Jesus offers us a vision of how to embrace the kingdom of God and invites us into practices for living a life of faith in the world. Over the next few months we invite you to join us on this journey of worship as we look at how these teachings of Jesus form us as followers of Christ through the words, postures, and practices of Jesus himself. Note that this worship service will be completely different content from the Sunday morning series on Romans.

Food - Following worship will be a potluck dinner in Massey Tucker Hall. In October we will continue our World Communion Day celebration, please bring a global dish of your choice-enough to feed your family plus four more. Just drop your goodies in MTH before worship then we’ll enjoy them after worship!

Childcare will be available, please contact Julie Clark (jclark@gpch.org) with the names and ages of your children.

Congregational Meeting

Following the worship service on Sunday, October 3 there will be a Congregational Meeting for all church members to elect elders and deacons as well as two at-large representatives to the Church Officer Nominating Committee.
