Announcements for March 8, 2026

ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR MARCH 8, 2026

The remaining Ecumenical Lenten schedule is shown below:

• Maundy (Holy) Thursday (April 2nd) at 7:00 pm with Pastor Dean providing the message at Hopewell Church of God. This service includes a Hand-Washing Service for those who wish to participate.
• Good Friday (April 3rd) with a Tenebrae service at St. John’s UCC at 2:00pm. This service concludes with an open table sharing of the elements of Holy Communion.

Please join us in the fellowship hall after worship today for a church potluck.

Marcia Abbott will remain as our Administrative Board Chairperson for 2026. Thank you, Marcia!

We will be having another Capital Funds Campaign to replace the depleted funds from our 2018 “Raise the Roof” campaign. After the church and parsonage roofs were installed, the fund had a remaining balance of $13,167.00. $12,685.30 of those funds have been used to pay for repairs, replacements, and ongoing preventive maintenance at the church building and parsonage. Donations raised will be kept separate from our general funds and used exclusively for future church and parsonage upkeep. Please see Pastor Dean or any board member to express your desire to join the team.

Addresses are on the bulletin board for those we are showering with cards to let them know that we are thinking of them.

Please see the flyer posted on the narthex bulletin board for the JB Tours trip to see “Jesus Christ Superstar” in Springboro (between Dayton and Cincinnati) on April 23rd.
