Pastor TomWednesday after worship - Post 23
Just a few things by way of keeping you all informed.
One, today's blog will not include an episode of 4TH TV. I have, however, included a "Somewhere Over There" video. Check it out!
Two, please remember that we will be sending you the Annual Report this week and it is the responsibility of all members of Fourth Presbyterian Church to read the report and then vote on the report. You'll be voting 'yes' or 'no' to approve the 2020 Annual Report of Fourth Presbyterian Church and the Terms of Call of the pastor. Please send your vote to Clerk of Session Robin Woodruff at robinwoodruff69@gmail.com.
Three, please remember that Eleanor and Michaelle will need you to RSVP by February 10 if you are interested in receiving a boxed Valentine's lunch on February 14 (Valentine's Day). If you are interested, contact Eleanor at 939-6257 or Michaelle at 592-9031 and plan to be at the church February 14th anytime between 12:00 and 12:30 (on the O'Reilly side).
Four, today is inauguration day. Please pray for peace in our nation and safety for our public officials, National Guard and police.
Tom
