First Sunday of the Month

This coming Sunday is the first Sunday of the month. That's the Sunday on which we bring food for our community food bank.

Sympathy: Nancy Renninger

Our deepest sympathy is extended to the family and friends of Nancy Renninger, a long-time member of this congregation. Nancy died on January 7, following a valiant battle with lung cancer. We held a memorial service for her the following Thursday.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Nancy's daughters and grandchildren. This dear Christian woman will be greatly missed.

In Memoriam: Michael Jamattona

At the request of the Jamattona family, the board has gratefully designated a portion of the memorial funds given in loving memory of Michael Jamattona. These funds are being used to pay for electrical work here at Marple Christian Church.

Some of the Jamattona memorial money has been used to pay for the installation of new lighting outside our building. The new fixtures make it safer to enter the building at night. The new lighting also illuminates our congregation's name on the front of our building. The memorial funds will also cover other electrical work.

This is a fitting memorial for Michael Jamattona, whose calling was as an electrician and contractor. It pays tribute to a man who was a charter member of this congregation, who helped build the building with his own hands, and who labored in love for tbe church through many decades. He will be missed, and he will be remembered.

CWF Project

The project of the Christian Women's Fellowship for the month of February is to sew and stuff heart pillows for post-surgery heart patients at Lankenau Hospital. The February meeting of the CWF is scheduled at the church building on February 8.
