Family day planned
at lone United Church
The annual business meet
ing of the lone United Church
of Christ on Sunday, Jan. 27,
will be the occasion for a
family day with activities
planned for all age groups. It
will start at 11 a.m.
The event is being planned
by Dody Krebs, moderator of
the church; Judy Rea, clerk,
and the Rev. Cathy Barker,
pastor.
Speaking of the annual
meeting, the pastor said, "It is
usually a very dry, even
boring event. This year we're
having a family day. The
theme of the day will be
'Wishful Thinking,' taken
from a quote by Frederick
Buechner, 'Christianity is
mainly wishful thinking.'
"We'll spend some time
looking back at the year we've
just been through, and we'll do
some dreaming how the
church can best serve God in
the year ahead. The worship
service that morning will
center around 'the Gift of
Dreaming.'"
Aptluck meal planned by
the United Church Women will
follow the meeting. The after
noon's activities include mu
sic, games, the business
meeting, installation of new
officers, and a skit by the
Senior High Youth Fellowship.
Persons of all ages are invited
to attend. Child care will be
provided during the business
session only.
The church banner, made
by several of the members,
will be "unveiled" in the
morning worship service, said
the Rev. Ms. Barker.
"There's no reason that the
work of the church should be
drudgery," the pastor said.
"We need to laugh together as
the people of God, too!"
