Thanks so much to our sabbatical pastor Dr. Paul Veliyathil!
We were blessed with the spiritual guidance of Reverend Veliyathil while our pastor took sabbatical leave this Summer.
A big thank you from the bottom of our hearts to this caring and gifted pastor. Dr. Veliyathil enriched our lives with his unique perspective and wisdom.

“Good Coffee for a Good Cause”
What is the Coffee Project?
The UCC Coffee Project is a partnership of the UCC Justice and Witness Ministries and Equal Exchange, a worker owned Fair Trade Organization. Equal Exchange:
- Cuts out the middleman
- Buys directly from cooperatives owned and governed by the farmers themselves
- Pays a fair price for the products
- Has a guaranteed minimum price
- Encourages ecologically sustainable farming practices
In addition, Equal Exchange makes a contribution to UCC programs that support ministries in economic justice for each pound of coffee, tea, cocoa or chocolate purchased through this project. Consider buying a pound for the church's coffee hour. Click here for more information and to print the coffee order form.

Exercise For Health and Fitness
With Marion Olsen ---
Mondays at 7
If you looking for a group to connect with for fitness, fun and friendship, you’ll get all three by participating in our weekly exercise program.
Every week a group of hearty, enthusiastic exercisers’ come together to support one another in their personal health and fitness goals.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Each exercise session consists of a 10 minute cardio warm-up, approximately 45 minutes of strength training (can be adapted to suit most any fitness level) and 15 minutes of stretching and balancing.
This program is a good way to supplement an existing personal exercise program or aid in beginning a program.
Bring your own weights and bands or use what we have on hand. One is never too young, nor too old to begin exercising.
Feel free to contact me at marionol@bellsouth.net
