JOIN US FOR WORSHIP SERVICE SUNDAYS AT 9:30 A.M.
TODAY, WE WELCOME – Rev. Dr. Frances Lin, of the Presbytery of Riverside, to the pulpit. She will bring greetings from the Presbytery and share God’s Word for us. Thank you Pastor Frances for helping and leading this Sunday!
COMMUNION SUNDAY CHANGE – This month’s Communion service will take place on Sunday, November 8th, rather than the first Sunday of the month (next month we will return to our normal Communion schedule).We are pleased to have Dr. Rev. Frances Lin lead us in this special time of worship and reflection. We invite everyone to join us as we gather at the Lord’s Table.
NEW CHRISTRIAN EDUCATION CLASS – Join us TODAY for the 2nd of 3 Adult C.E. classes, led by Dr. Rev. Dave Jewett, after worship in the Conference Room. Together, we’ll explore important questions of Christian faith. This week we tackle the question, “Is the Trinity in the Bible?” All are welcome! We hope you’ll join us for these engaging and insightful discussions as we deepen our understanding of Scripture and our faith.
A SALUTE TO OUR VETERANS – We thank all of you who have served in the armed forces as we remember all who have sacrificed for our nation. Please note that the office will be closed on Wednesday, November 11th in honor of Veterans Day.
HANGING OF THE GREENS – It’s that wonderful time of year again! Stay after worship on Sunday, November 22nd for our festive “hanging of the greens.” We’ll deck the halls, hang the wreaths, and fill the church with Christmas cheer! Come lend a hand (and maybe hum a carol or two) as we turn our sanctuary into a winter wonderland for the Advent season.
CVRM ANGEL TREE – We invite you to select and sign up to sponsor a child from the Coachella Valley Rescue Mission with Christmas gifts. The Angel Tree with gift cards will be available next Sunday, November 15, in the Fellowship Hall. Please select a tag and sign up on the clipboard once they are available. All gifts should be unwrapped in gift bags (green bag for boys and red bags for girls) with the designated gift tag firmly attached. CVRM asks that candy not be included. Gifts are due back to the church no later than December 6th. Thank you for providing some joy this season to these needy children.
CHRISTMAS DINNER – The Mission & Outreach Committee is sponsoring the annual Christmas Dinner that will take place on December 6th at 5 p.m. in the fellowship hall. Reservations can be made in the Fellowship Hall, starting next week, after worship and are $10 per person. We have a limit of 70 reservation spots for this fun catered holiday dinner with entertainment.
STEWARDSHIP 2027 – The stewardship theme for 2027 is "We are Blessed to be a Blessing." We encourage everyone in the congregation, member and non-member, to give of their time, talents, and treasurers to further the work of God here at St. Andrew Community Presbyterian Church. If you are on our mailing list, you will receive stewardship letters and a pledge card in the mail. There are additional pledge cards available in the Narthex and the church office. Please place pledge cards in the offering box or mail them to the church. Pledges help our elders make decisions about next year's budget. We hope to receive all pledge cards by December 13th. Please help us be a blessing to others. We have already received $124,280 in commitment pledges for 2027. Thank you!
DEACON'S FUND – Many people are struggling with the basics of food and shelter. Here at St. Andrew, we try to help both our members and our neighbors through our Deacon’s Fund. We buy gas, and grocery cards to give to people knocking on our office door asking for help, and to assist our members with a small financial gift if they have an unexpected need. The Deacon’s Fund comes solely from contributions from our church family. If you’re able, please help in serving our church and community in this special way. Contributions should include “Deacon’s Fund” in the memo. Thank you!
ONGOING COLLECTION FOR ST. JOHN'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH: We will continue monthly to collect protein items for St. John's Episcopal Church's community food distribution program. The collection box will remain in the Narthex for your donations of canned meats, beans and peanut butter, and the committee will bring the donations we receive to St. John. If you would like the help with packing food for the St. John’s Episcopal Church Ministry, this happens on the fourth Thursday of every month from 1-3 pm, at 45319 Deglet Noor St, Indio. Thank you for helping our neighbors.
DONATIONS TO OUR CHURCH: The Bank of America has a new policy stating that all checks must be made out to our correct business name. When making a donation to our church in the form of a check, you must now write: St. Andrew Community Presbyterian Church. No abbreviations or other forms of our name will be allowed. To avoid this, we recommend that you make donations through Zelle using our finance email: standrewfinance1@gmail.com. You could also set up Bill Pay through your bank but be sure to use the full name of the church as seen above. Vanco is another option, but keep in mind that Vanco removes 2% of every donation before we receive it. Thank you for your understanding.
