The Stewards are coming..... The Stewards are coming! |
We are in the second year of the Consecrating Stewards program. We will hear three members speak about their own approach to giving, and what the church means to them. These "witnessing stewards" will speak on October 26, November 2, and November 9. We are happy to announce that Richard F. Jones, pastor at the First Parish Church of Bolton, will be joining us as guest steward on Consecration Sunday, November 16. On Consecration Sunday, pledges for 2009 will be brought forward, and blessed in a special service, as we all celebrate the abundance we share. The service will be followed by a luncheon. All are welcome!
Last year, on Consecration Sunday, we enjoyed native American music provided by Blackfeather, a Native American drummer, of Brookfield. His fellow musicians also performed "smudging" before the service.
