Come and Worship! 
  Join us for worship this weekend, January 24-25, as the congregation observes The Third Sunday after Epiphany.  Pastor Jeffrey Kolbo provides the sermon.

Scriptural Focus
  The first reading, Jonah 3:1-5, 10, relates the story of Jonah, who, despite his perpetual resistance, becomes an instrument of God’s grace for the people of Nineveh.
  In 1 Corinthians 7:29-31, the Apostle Paul reminds the Corinthian church that the surpassing worth of Christ relativized all other values.
  When, in Mark 1:14-20, fishermen are called by Jesus to discipleship, they left everything behind.

Saturday Worship Theme
  A worship series entitled, “Living in the Light” continues with our 5:00 p.m. Saturday, January 24 Worship hour.  The series celebrates the bold proclamation of Epiphany: God’s Word is incarnate in Jesus, who is the light of our salvation! The sermon is provided by Pastor Jeffrey Kolbo.

Building Project . . .

  Our Building Project is moving forward.  All the paperwork has been submitted to the Town of Brookhaven for a building permit, and we are working on options for financing.  
  We are still not certain of how long before ground breaking, there is a slim chance it could be late fall, but more likely it will be early Spring.  
  The congregation continues to respond to our Restoring, Rebuilding, Renewing Capital Appeal.  An additional $90,000 in pledges have been received since commitment Sunday in May—with a current total close to $700,000.  Our goal of $750,000 is within reach!  
  Thank you for your support! Haven't yet contributed? There is still time. Extra commitment forms are available on the information table in the annex entrance and via the church office.
