A message from Southern Alamance Family Empowerment of Graham: SAFE needs your help! We are in need weekly of 400 cans of Chef Boy R Dee or a substitute brand for our Kids’ Bags program on Thursdays. In August, our numbers increased and we are having a hard time finding this amount in bulk. This is a staple for the kids’ lunches. Just a few cans from many individuals will soon add
up to make many! We are in the office Mon-Thurs, 8:15-12:30 and also have a drop box by the front door. Please share and thank you for your continued support!

WORSHIP - Due to COVID-19 we will continue to post worship videos of our Sunday services on YouTube and Facebook for those unable to attend in-person services. Please note we are observing Holy Communion the 1st and 3rd Sundays. We are using pre-packaged juice and wafer provided in the Narthex before worship, The 2nd and 5th Sundays will be a Service of Word & Prayer and the 4th Sunday will be Affirmation of Baptism.

BIBLE STUDY - We started a Bible study on 2 Corinthians. The introduction can be found on YouTube and the link is here:

It will also be linked on our Facebook page. If anyone is interested in a ZOOM study I am open to that. The videos are certainly not interactive but I would hope folks could follow along, read the Scripture, and reflect on their meaning for faith and life today. 2 Corinthians, I believe, speaks well to our current situation.

TIME AND TALENTS - Due to COVID-19 Time & Talent sheets will not be distributed as they have in the past to sign up for committees, Sunday service personnel and other ministry duties for 2021. Please take time to commit yourself to a needed task! There is something for EACH OF YOU to do within the work of the church. Please use the form on page 13 of your December newsletter to sign up!

NEW HVAC FUND - We are establishing a fund to replace the current, badly aging HVAC unit in the Low's sanctuary. Likely some of you have attended worship when there was either no heat or air conditioning in the sanctuary and we had to move worship to the fellowship hall. While the unit is working properly now, it will eventually need to be replaced. In connection with this, if your family has memorial funds at Low's that you would like to go toward this fund, please let us know.

Upcoming Events 2020

Celebration Postponed Celebration Postponed - In 2021 Low's will celebrate 250 years of ministry. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, special worship services and other events to mark the occasion will have to be pushed back until later in the year. More
information will follow as the situation related to COVID becomes clearer.

BULLETIN DEADLINE is Wednesday by 5:00 p.m. Please call Kathy Fries at 336-706-3965 with any announcements. Thank you.

FOOD PANTRY - We are encouraging those who attend worship in February to bring items to donate to local ministries. Among the items needed by Allied Churches are canned meats, sweet peas, Alfredo sauce, Worcestershire sauce, whole kernel corn, canned chili, plastic forks, napkins, Tide pods, and paper towels. Other ministries can use donations of non-perishable food, including food for children.

HELP - If you know of anyone with needs due to reduced income or lack of income, or hear of any needs for groups helping others, please let the Pastor know. So far Social Ministry has provided some extra help during this time for the Salvation Army, Piedmont Rescue Mission, Living Free Ministries, Alamance Meals on Wheels, and Southern Alamance Family Empowerment (SAFE) of Graham.

PASTORAL VISITS - Pastor John Mark is not actively visiting due to the COVID-19 pandemic and doesn't want to risk spreading the virus. If you desire a pastoral visit, or need prayer over the telephone, please contact the Pastor by email or leaving a voice mail at the church or Pastor's cell phone.

WAS YOUR BIRTHDAY OR ANNIVERSARY MISSING FROM THE CALENDAR? Do we have your correct address? Email address? We try to keep birthday, anniversary and address lists up to date, but we need your help! If you have moved or if there has been a birth or wedding in your family, please use the form on page 13 of your December newsletter to report your information.
