Thank you for your continuing support of our Whitesburg P-8 AfterSchool Snack Ministry. The school nurse has requested that we
discontinue sending snacks containing peanuts and peanut butter due to
potential allergies. Acceptable snacks include Rice Krispy Treats, CheezIts, Goldfish, Fruit Snacks, Pretzels, Cheese Crackers, and Cookies. We
are now serving only 15 students per day with a box drink and snack
which translates to 75 box drinks + 75 snacks each week.
The Vine is offering a depression and emotional wellness support group
called “Avoiding the Depression Trap”, on Thursdays, from 6:00-7:00 pm
at First Baptist Church in Madison. The support group is FREE to any
adult/spouse/loved one coping with depression.
There is more
understanding and more that can be done to address depression than ever
before. Join Mark Beaird as he leads this support group.
The Huntsville Association for Pastoral Care and Brookdale Place Jones
Farm invite all pastors and spiritual care givers to be our guests at an
educational lunch at Brookdale Place Jones Farm, 2815 Carl T. Jones Dr.,
Thurs., Feb. 26 from 11:30 to 12:30. Dr. Jack Ragland, Pastoral Counselor
and Marriage and Family Therapist with The Vine Pastoral Counseling
Center will be speaking on "Helping Troubled Families." A couple comes
to us with a marital problem or about a troubled child. What do we say?
How can we be spiritually supportive and practically helpful? When do we
refer to a therapist? If they go into therapy, how can we continue to be
pastorally and spiritually supportive so they do not feel abandoned by us or
by the church? These are some of the questions Dr. Ragland will be
addressing. You may make a reservation by phoning Jana Seikel at
Brookdale Place, 256 881-6111, or by contacting the Rev. Carl Malm, 256
883-6539, malmcarl@hotmail.com. We hope to see you Feb. 26!

Baptist Church, 600 Governor's Dr. (Entrance 7 on St. Clair across from
public library.) "Wellness: Spirit, Soul and Body" will be presented by
Eugenia Graves, RN and Director of Health Ministries for First Baptist.
The focus will be how spiritual care providers can care for the whole
person and also care for themselves! Breakfast and registration will be at
8:30. Cost: $35.00 except for those from sponsoring churches. CEU's
available for nurses at no charge! To register or for more information:

WELCOME NEW MEMBER: This morning, we are delighted to
welcome back Ed Runnion into the membership of Faith Presbyterian
Church. For the past several years, Ed has been worshiping with and
singing in the Men’s Chorus of Church Street Cumberland Presbyterian
Church in America. While Ed will continue singing with the chorus, he
has requested that his membership be transferred back to Faith and was
officially received by the Session this morning.
