ANNOUNCEMENTS & UPCOMING EVENTS

Title Printed Church Directory

A limited number of printed directories will be made available to church members who do not have access to the church’s internet directory.

“Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion,

for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7

Adam Hamilton in His book “Enough” tells us.

“When we are generous - to God and to our families, friends, neighbors and others who are in need- our hearts are filled with joy. They are enlarged by the very act of giving. When we give generously, we become more generous. That, is how generosity works!”

STEWARDSHIP

Thank You! - PW Bare Necessities

Parenting Workshop

On Saturday, October 5 from 9:30 – 12:30 P.M. Highland will be offering the fourth in a series of parenting workshops. Dr. Pia Fenimore and Lisa Murray will be discussing the most common issues facing parents today in a presentation of “What’s Your Parenting Report Card.” This is a free workshop with childcare provided. Registration on the Highland website.

Thank you to everyone who brought in new socks and undies for the PW Bare Necessities back-to-school drive for the Lancaster County Council of Churches clothing bank. We dropped off 378 pairs of socks and undies from a combination of your donations and the proceeds from the Yard Sale Baked Goods sale in March. A very belated thanks you to all who baked, as well.

Senior Life Institute “Leonardo Da Vinci: The Renaissance Mind & Modern Creativity" The Renaissance was one of the most creative periods in history, with Leonardo exemplifying the spirit of the age. Leonardo was artist, scientist, engineer, architect, musician and observer of the natural world. Come learn, have lunch, enjoy fun and fellowship with an emphasis on creativity.

Mark your calendars for these dates: Oct. 3, 17, 31 and Nov. 14. Event times begin with Registration and Coffee at 9:30; Program 10:00 - 12:00, Lunch at 12:00. Registration begins today in the Narthex.

Missionary Support

Play golf at Overlook on Friday September 20 to support our very own missionaries, Ryan and Krista Ginn. The format is a four-player scramble with registration at 12 Noon and shotgun start at 1 PM. The cost is $90 per person but you can also sponsor a hole for $100 or be a star sponsor for $500. First Presbyterian Church is sponsoring the tournament, but it would be great if we had multiple foursomes representing Highland. Jerry Rothacker will be in the Narthex before and between services the next few weeks to sign you up or give you a brochure!
