See the sign-up sheets on the table in the
Worship Center and Gathering Area this
Sunday morning for more information and
an opportunity to participate in this much
needed ministry of our church. Please note
we will be working in teams of three so no
one will be expected to do a meal alone.
Cheryl Lauzau and Pat Smith have been
coordinating this ministry for over a year but
the team concept is one that we have not
implemented until now. Thanks for your
help!!

Great news… Everall Peele, one of our recent
worship visitors who loves music, has accepted
our invitation to direct a new Hand Bell Choir at
First Presbyterian Church! Now we need
ringers. Even if you have never played hand
bells before, and especially if you have, please
speak to Lisa Smith or Everall Peele about
joining our new Hand Bell Choir. It is a big
commitment, but the joy and satisfaction that
come with making beautiful music for the Lord
are immeasurable.
The Timothy Ministry is a ministry of
caring and sharing. This ministry serves our
Brothers and Sisters within this congregation.
When someone returns home from the
hospital, or has a serious illness at home,
someone will prepare a meal, provide
transportation, do light housekeeping or do
whatever is needed to help the
person/family through the crisis. We have a
new paradigm for this ministry and need
your help to implement this new idea.

What a great day the Lord gave us for this event. Prayer works!! We had a
great crowd attend our event and everyone we talked with had positive things to say about their
experience here at FPC. Everyone wants to know who won the prizes so here are the winners. The
Quilt was won by Rick Taylor. The beach trip was won by Larry Strader, the $500 Wal-Mart gift card
went to Johnny White and the $300 cash prize was won by Debbie Ammons. The other question is
“How much did we make”??? We do not have a final figure at this point in time because we are
still collecting money and we have expenses that we have not yet paid. However, a ball park
figure would be about $11,500. Don’t hold us to that number exactly, remember it is an
approximate number at this point. We will have a detailed report in a week or so and you may
get a copy if you are interested.
So many did so much. Even if you just came Saturday and bought something, you were a part of
making this a success. It takes the whole congregation getting involved to make an event
profitable. Thanks to all that worked so very hard, to those who were not able to do anything but
gave money to enable us to do a lot more, to those who came and spent their money, to those
who worked long hours into the night, and everyone who supported this event in any way. There
were some who went way above and beyond and God knows your names!! You will be blessed!
