Did you hear the one about the rabbi, the priest and the imam?
You’re invited to an inspiring and uplifting community Thanksgiving celebration of music and reflection, with a healthy dose of humor. This annual celebration brings together clergy, lay leaders and choirs from more than a dozen different religious beliefs to recognize what they have in common and celebrate our uniqueness. If this sounds interesting to you, please join the Spiritual Growth committee as we travel to Temple Kol Emeth in east Marietta. We’ll meet at the church at 5:45 on November 21st to carpool to the service. Want to meet us there? The address is 1415 Old Canton Road, Marietta and the service begins at 7:00.
Oh, look, it’s a cardboard turkey filled with money… A CARDBOARD TURKEY FILLED WITH MONEY?! Be sure to take your cardboard turkey home and fill it with money and bring it back to NPC next Sunday. We will be taking up the annual Thanksgiving offering to benefit Thornwell homes for children. Thanks!
Santa Claus Express is coming! Residents of Presbyterian Homes of Georgia health centers will receive the gifts we donate at Christmastime. Do take a brochure and shop for one of the suggestions that appeals to you. Items should be unwrapped and placed in the gift basket in the narthex through Sunday, December 1st. Donors can send a financial gift by using one of the “angel ornaments” in the basket. Thank you!
Come to NPC during the Sunday School hour (9:30-10:30 am) We are starting a new Bible Study of the four Gospels using the Parallel Lives of Jesus: A Guide to the Four Gospels, by Edward Adams, as well as studying the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. All are invited and encouraged to join us for what should be a very interesting study. Please prayerfully consider joining us.
