International House of Potluck (IHOP)
On Saturday, 8/29, a friendly gathering of about 45 church people and friends came together to celebrate our international community. We all enjoyed the different ethnic dishes including Swedish meatballs, Russian Borscht, German potato salad and much, much more. Then the group was challenged to compete in an International trivia game. In the end everybody won! A delicious dinner, good fellowship, and a nice evening was had by all. If you missed it this time look forward to a future IHOP in 2027!

The World Communion Offering is a PC(USA) denominational endeavor enabling Presbyterians to “love kindness” expressed in actions of mercy, faithfulness and steadfast commitment.

Peacemaking efforts, racial justice, gender justice, and nurturing interfaith relationships are all causes of the denomination which are supported by this offering.

Please check for flyers in the narthex and envelopes in the pews starting in September to donate. Thank you for your generosity!
