Living Stones, Building Bridges

June 13 – A Sunday of Appreciation Throughout the pandemic, many people invested significant amounts of time, effort, and energy to keep Hempfield Church of the Brethren focused on Christ and our role in His kingdom as living stones, building bridges.  While no one did this for the recognition of doing so, the Leadership Team would like the church to take a moment to pause and express appreciation for the efforts of all those who have worked, and continue to work, so tirelessly to keep our church moving forward.   On Sunday, June 13, the Leadership Team will be leading the service, and we are asking each person to bring one or more notes of appreciation for someone who has gone that extra mile during this pandemic.  This can be a hand-written expression on lovely stationery, a few special words in a card, or a thankful note typed and printed.  The medium doesn’t matter.  It’s the thought that counts.   Please place the notes or cards in an envelope clearly marked with the recipient’s name.  A box will be provided for placing your envelopes at the beginning of the service.  The Leadership Team will deliver the envelopes to the intended recipients.  If you aren’t able to attend church that day, please place your notes in Jason Hoffman’s mailbox or mail them to the church in a larger outside envelope in advance.
