“..be doers of the word, not hearers only…” - James 1:22
This month on the fifth Sunday, January 31, we will take a detour.
Instead of worship and fellowship as usual, we will, after a
brief Commissioning Service at church at 10:30 a.m., turn toward
the community and focus our attention on people in need
to serve them a tangible expression of our faith. We will actually
BE the hands and feet of Christ in San Jose!
Starting Sunday, Jan. 10, church members and friends can sign
up for one of 5 projects, some at church and some around
town. Be sure to sign up!
We are entering into this 5th Sunday ministry with West Valley
Presbyterian Church in Cupertino. Jan. 31st will be their third
“5th Sunday” ministry day and they are inviting us to celebrate
at their church at 5 p.m. on the 31st with worship and a simple
(snacks) potluck dinner. Mark your calendars!
West Valley
Presbyterian Church is located at 6191 Bollinger Road
Cupertino, CA 95014. Details to follow in flyers given out at
church.
