A Thought for the Week
Give us grace, O Lord, to work while it is day, fulfilling diligently and patiently whatever duty thou appointest us, doing small things in the day of small things and great labors if thou summon us to any. - Christina Rosetti

Lydia's Circle This Thursday
This new group will hold its second meeting Thursday from 7 to 9 p.m. at the home of Carrie Branon (786 San Antonio Dr. 30306). For information contact Tara Parrish at taraparrish@bellsouth.net.
Fill the Ark for VBS
You have been quite generous with your donations of VBS supplies; however, 15 to 20 items are still needed. If you would like to contribute, you may do so by calling the church office, and we will tell you about the remaining items.
Sunday Forum: Religious Responses To Torture
In recent months there has been much discussion of the United States' methods of interrogation, especially the use of torture by American officials in the past several years. At the heart of these heated debates are the moral and spiritual implications of our policies. After worship this Sunday, Joanna Adams and Chris Henry will lead a timely and informative conversation on various religious responses to the use of torture. This event is part of our ongoing series of Sunday Forums at Morningside, which take place from 12:15 to 1:15pm in Room 201.
