Community Bible Study this week at Lexington Presbyterian Church will not take place this week.
This Sunday, Jan. 8, there will be a congregational meeting at New Monmouth Presbyterian Church after church to vote on the budget, the terms of call, and to elect elders for this coming year.
During January we will be collecting items to make education kits. You may bring individual items or complete a kit. There will be a basket at church for the items. Needs are as follows:
• One pair of blunt scissors removed from the package (rounded tip, only); three 70-count bound notebooks or notebooks totaling 200-210 pages (no loose-leaf or filler paper); one 30-centimeter / 12” ruler; one hand-held pencil sharpener removed from the package; one large eraser (no pencil cap erasers); six new, unsharpened pencils with erasers (removed from packing and use a rubber band to hold the pencils together); one box of 24 crayons (only 24); one 12”x14” to 14”x17” finished size cotton or lightweight canvas bag with handles.
