Bill Grossman will be preaching on “Listening for God” using Acts 1: 21 – 26 and Luke 24: 44 – 53. As part of our Children’s Day activities, the Senior High Youth will be doing the Time for Young Disciples. Also, the younger kids will be interacting with Bill during the beginning of the sermon. They’ve planned a cute skit, so don’t be too surprised.

The Choir will be singing “Jesus, My All, To Heaven Has Gone arranged by Budahl.

The scripture readings are taken from The Message by Eugene Peterson and are available at http://www.biblegateway.com

Here is Bill’s Sermon from last Sunday, Mother’s Day, May 13th

Bill Grossman told us about this new ministry in Georgia. If you are interested in it, you can learn more about it from this video:

We are well into our Interfaith Build with the other three churches her in Marcellus. We have joined together to take two full shares in the new Habitat for Humanity Interfaith Build. Along with churches like First Presbyterian in Skaneateles and Plymouth UCC in Syracuse, we will be providing two shares of $5,000 and a total of 10 work days of volunteer labor. The Signup Sheet for days the crews will be working is AVAILABLE HERE.

Habitat needs some indication of who is coming, so check your dates and call or email our coordinator, Carolynn Longuil at 673-3811 or cjlong77@twcny.rr.com. This will reserve your spot and make sure they have enough people to work. You are welcome to bring friends along.
