MISSION NEWS
THE GREATER WOODBURY COOPERATIVE MINISTRIES -
The Food Pantry serviced 236 families in December 2007. This brings the total number of families served in 2007 to 2,634. Please note these are not all new families; Many are repeats each month and continue to need help from those of us who have much.
Also, Pam Fuller is collecting coats. Please give any new or used coats to Pam and she will see that they are distributed.
Also, the Pantry has a need for nonperishable food. We need pancake mix, syrup, canned fruit, peanut butter, jelly, cereal, mashed potatoes (boxed), rice mixes, and coffee (regular and instant). If you are considering a monetary donation to the Food Bank, please make all checks payable to GWCM - Food Pantry.
Music
CHOIR REHEARSALS - The Music Ministry of Kemble Church holds regular rehearsal schedules: Sanctuary Choir (grades 1-5) - Thursdays at 6:30 PM, Raver Hall; Chapel Choir (grades 6-9) - Sundays at 12:00 noon, Carson Room; Hand Bell Choir - Thursdays at 7:00 PM, Chapel; and Senior Choir - Thursdays at 8:00 PM, Raver Hall. We are praying that we will see new faces in each of our music ensembles this year! We are so grateful for the faithful who come out each week to prepare for leading the congregation in worship. We have a great time together, while presenting great music for God’s glory! Come be a part of the Song!
NEW ORGAN COMPONENTS - Thanks to the generosity of Gerry and Fred Winkler, we have four new sounds in our Moller-Peragallo Organ at Kemble! These will add richness to our worship, enhancing the service with the variety of these percussion sounds: Chimes, Harp, Celesta and Cymbelstern. The last sound is the only one acoustically produced, with the other three being digital. The Cymbelstern is a series of small brass bells that are struck by small tubes on a rotating star or wheel. Its sound is festive, recalling miniature bells of high holy days and feast days of old! The new sounds are dedicated to those in the Senior Choir who are no longer with us: Clara Brazier, Judy Beans and Dan Miller. To God be the glory!
SUMMER SCHEDULE - Sunday worship services will be held at 8:30am and 10:00am beginning June 1st through August 31st.
