August at Riverside

0

Riverside Church Washington, DC

While things slow down around the church in August, the truth is, plans are in process and work continues.  The pastor is working on a slate of bible study and reflection opportunities to present in the Fall after Labor Day.  Weddings are taking place (congrats Blair and Norbert!), trustees are overseeing property, deacons are overseeing member care, an ordination is being planned for September (congrats Robin!), and In Session is working to fill backpacks with school supplies to children in our community and church who need them.  By the way, please help In Session to do this. Start bringing in your donated supplies on Sundays and get them to the church office by August 22nd.  In Session invites you to disseminate these to the children on Saturday, August 28th.   For more information you can speak with the Chairperson of Deacons.

If you are traveling then we pray for traveling mercies to you and yours. Come back to us safely.  Don’t forget while you are away that the web site provides you access to sermons, announcements and the opportunity to donate online.  We pray August is a time of refreshment for you. And when you are here, be sure to worship with us on Sunday!  When we are together in the sanctuary we are transformed. Be part of that.  We look forward to seeing you in church.
