World Communion Sunday, October 4. On October 4 we will celebrate our oneness in Christ with all our brothers and sisters around the world. The worship committee wants to be sure to include everyone who worships with us and originates from a country other than the USA. The list will be displayed in the fellowship hall for review so that persons whose names are not on the list can add theirs. If possible, please bring a flag representing your country on that day. Please contact Mary Ann Moriles or Florette Njonu, or the church office and let us know what country you hail from and what languages you speak. Please bring a dish to share at the church luncheon following the service. If you have clothing that represents your heritage, please wear it. ·

PW Project for 2026 - Water Wells. MPC Women’s Mission for 2026 is to help to provide a deep rock well. A deep rock well taps into pure water sources hundreds of feet below ground, providing access to clean water even during drought and other extreme weather conditions. These sustainable wells serve communities in the most water-scarce regions of the world and are placed in areas where they can make the greatest impact and be maintained by trained community members. There is a red bucket placed in the hallway for your donations.
Pictorial Directory. The MPC pictorial directory is available. You may pick up a copy in the narthex.
Presbyterian Women Collecting Pop Tabs. The PW will be collecting pop tabs again to support the Ronald McDonald House. The Ronald McDonald House is a place where parents can stay, free of charge, when their infant or child is in the Children’s Hospital. Dianne Hooten will be the contact for this project.
Food Pantry Volunteers Needed. We are in need of more volunteers to help out with our ministry here. We could use some folks to help out with our food delivery on Wednesdays and also on Thursday afternoon. We have other tasks like bagging food that can be done at any time, and we are very flexible. Even one day a month would be helpful. Please see David Turner if you are interested in helping out.
