CFA “Souper Bowl” 2018

Make the Center for Food Action your winning “Souper Bowl” Team in a project to help feed and keep our neighbors warm. This Sunday, the Outreach Team will distribute plastic soup containers for you to collect loose change for 2 weeks. Then, on Sunday, Feb. 4, coinciding with the NFL’s Super Bowl, bring your container back to church. Everyone’s contributions will be combined during hospitality time, and all monies will be donated to CFA. Thank you for helping CFA prevent hunger and homelessness.

Reading Group @ HMPC

The Book Club meets on the 4th Friday of the month and anyone is invited to come and discuss the books. Our gathering time is changing from 1 – 3PM to 1:30-3:30PM so please make a note.

If you have never been a part of a book club or used to be and would like to join a club again, please consider joining the HPMC Book Group. There’s nothing to do: why not try coming for one meeting and see how enjoyable it is!

1/26 The Whistler by Kohn Grisham

Faithworks

Our lesson is based on Chapter 1 of the book of Jonah and then we will also go to Jonah 3:1-5,10 to capture the whole story of Jonah. We will read the scripture and discuss the ways in which we have sometimes run away from doing God’s will. We will color the summary ditto and do the clothes pin project to illustrate the experience.
