October Announcements

40th Anniversary of Our Church! 

A star with the words celebration time written in it.

Outdoor In-person worship services begin THIS SUNDAY

At a called Session meeting last Tuesday evening, your Session voted unanimously to begin holding our worship services in the Heritage Lodge parking lot.  Currently, the weather is getting milder, so meeting outside for worship is a good alternative for now.

We ask that EVERYONE wear a mask and follow the social distancing protocols that we all understand.  This is the safest way for us to gather, and it is also part of an agreement we have with the Lodge’s Board of Directors in order to meet on their property.

Please note that this is a temporary solution!  Obviously, the weather will be a factor every time we attempt to gather outdoors.  So, if the weather should not be acceptable, outdoor worship services will be cancelled for that Sunday ONLY.  We will assess the weather each weekend and will let you know the plan for each Sunday morning.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this trying time – and please keep our church in your prayers!

OCTOBER MISSION OFFERING: PCUSA Peace & Global Witness Offering

Every year, during the month of October, Heritage PC participates in the Peace & Global Witness special offering.  As the denomination’s flyer explains, “By giving to the Peace & Global Witness Offering, we work to share Christ’s peace with one another, beyond our doors, beyond our community and across boundaries.â€

We all know how difficult peace can be when people have to deal with natural disasters.  So this special offering is given in these ways:  

  • 1/4 of our offering will be given directly by our congregation to some organization helping those recently affected by a natural disaster.
  • 1/4 of this offering goes to the Synod, joining with other congregations to support peacemaking work in our region.
  • 1/2 supports the work done by Presbyterians across the globe.

Please consider giving to the this very special offering during the month of October.  Mail your check to the church office, or use the on-line giving option on the church web page and send an email to the church office ([email protected]).  Thank you so much!
