UCC DISASTER MINISTRIES

Hurricane Sandy has completely decimated many communities all along the East Coast. Widespread damage has leveled whole cities, towns and villages in Pennsylvania and our nearby states of Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey and New York. While other neighborhoods were not hit as hard, there are still large areas without electricity or clean water.  Alan Miller, PNEC Conference Minister, has informed us that a special offering is available through the UCC that will target relief efforts for our mid-Atlantic communities. Envelopes for Disaster Relief will be in the pews through the end of November. Since this is an “above and beyond” offering, 100% of the donations will be used exclusively for relief. So please give generously, both to the Disaster Relief offering and to Emmanuel so that we can continue to minister to our communities here in Dorrance and around the world.

Hurricane Sandy

In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock at night. And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood near them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened. And so the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. — Luke 2:8-11 (NASV)
