ANNOUNCEMENTS
 
Sunday we will be celebrating the sacrament of Holy Communion. In the Presbyterian Church we understand that Jesus invites all who love him to the Table which he has prepared for us. If you are a guest with us today, please join in this sacred, joyful sacrament.
 
Scout Sunday The Boy Scouts of America designates the Sunday that falls before February 8 (Scouting Anniversary Day) as Scout Sunday, which is the primary date to recognize the contributions of young people and adults to Scouting. We will be celebrating Scout Sunday. Your Scouts from Troop 282 will be participating in the service and will be providing the refreshments for Coffee Hour following worship. We thank them! The parental and leadership support for this remarkable Boy Scout Troop 282 is a source of pride for all who are involved. These young men are in great hands. 
 
Souper Bowl Sunday  We will be having a collection at the end of the service with assistance of our youth and the Scouts.  The money will go the Mel Trotter Mission to provide meals for the hungry and homeless. Be a part of the movement that is sharing God’s love with those in need. There will be youth holding soup pots in the Narthex after the service to receive your contributions.
 
Flower Chart for 2016 is now in place.  If you have someone or something you would like to have the flowers dedicated to, select and complete a date, pull the related envelop, complete the slip with your dedication, and place $20 to cover the cost of the flowers. 
 
Men of the Church!  Save the Date:  The Membership Committee needs you to help prepare a Sweetheart Brunch for our ladies of the church on Sunday, February 21.  We will need help setting up (Saturday February 20), serving, cleaning up and donating your favorite dish.  The menu will be breakfast casseroles, fruits, muffins, coffee and punch.  
 
Our Ash Wednesday Service will be held on Wednesday, February 10 at 7:30 p.m.  Please attend this somber service of Holy Communion and the Imposition of Ashes. 
 
The Annual Meeting of the congregation will be held on Sunday, February 14, 2016 following worship. 
 
JOY Bible will take a short break starting on February 23 and start up again on March 22nd.
 
Attention!  Attention!  The NKPC J.O.Y. Bicycle Group will be having a planning meeting at 9:00 a.m., Saturday, February 20, 2016 at the church in the Teeuwissen Room.  All members and friends are invited to share their favorite dish at a potluck breakfast and give their ideas and input as we plan the schedule for our bicycle outings throughout the summer.  Please join us for a fun time of fellowship.
