 Need
something to do this winter?
A break? A get-away? |

Would
you consider participating in "Hurricane Recovery"
along the Mississippi and Louisiana coasts? Until churches
along the Gulf coast begin growing again and become financially
secure, Presbyterians in other parts of the country can help.
Churches can become partners by providing volunteers for rebuilding,
giving prayer support and offering financial assistance. For
more information, contact Deborah Corrao at Project Homecoming,
a rebuilding initiative of the Presbytery of South Louisiana,
3700 Gentilly Blvd., New Orleans, LA 70122; 504-942-0444;
deb@pslrecovery.org. To learn about, volunteer for, and support
rebuilding efforts along the Mississippi and Louisiana coasts,
visit the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance Web site www.pcusa.org/pda
or call PresbyTel at 1-800-872-3283.

Start
the New Year with Prayer |
May
God make your new year a happy one . . .
Not by shielding you from all sorrows and pain, but by strengthening
you
to bear it as it comes;
Not by making your path easy, but by making you sturdy to travel
any path;
Not by taking hardships from you, but by taking fear from your
heart;
Not by granting you unbroken sunshine, but by keeping your face
bright,
even in the shadows;
Not by making your life always pleasant, but by showing you
when people and their
causes need you most, and making you want to be there to help.
May God's love, peace, hope and joy be with you always, in the
year ahead. |
