-Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ

MPC is honored to be one stop on a busy U.S. recital tour for internationally-renowned concert organist Stefan Donner, tonight at 7 p.m. Stefan serves as the organist to St. Peter’s Church of Vienna, which will host our Chancel Choir during its 2019 Europe Choir Tour. The concert is free and open to the public! Many thanks to a generous donor who has covered the expenses of the concert!

 

This Sunday, August 26th, we will take up a special offering for Thornwell, a Presbyterian ministry providing resources to “hurting children and families.” With locations in South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, Thornwell offers foster care, residential care, parenting classes, and early childhood education for families in crisis. To learn more, see the info sheets on the Mission Bulletin Board or go to Thornwell.

 

Support our Preschool by picking up take-out or eating-in at El Taco (1186 N. Highland Ave, N.E.) next Tuesday, August 28th. Be sure to tell them you are with MPP, so that 20% of the proceeds from our meals are donated to our children’s programming. Reservations are accepted on Dine-Out evenings.

 

Mark your calendars! Sunday morning worship returns to the 11 o’clock hour, beginning Sunday, September 2nd. There will be no Sunday School Classes* or Chancel Choir that day, as the worship service will be in a “Hymn Sing” format.

*The Adult Faith Development Class will meet in the Session Room at 9:45 a.m.
