Disaster Chaplaincy Services, a multi-faith organization devoted to helping victims of crises deal with the emotional and spiritual shocks during emergencies, recently lost their home. Julie Taylor, the Executive Director of DCS and member at Fourth U, put out a call for help and the Church answered. The organization’s nerve center has temporarily been relocated to our choir loft. Our Senior Minister, Rev. Rosemary Bray McNatt, and two of our Affiliate Ministers, Rev. Ed Bolella and Rev. Jill Bowden, are volunteers with DCS, and it’s a big boost to our ministry to aid in this important spiritual and healing endeavor. You can learn more about the organization at www.disasterchaplaincy.org .

Join us after the service on March 9 for “Fanning the Flames: A Congregational Workshop on Personal Ministry,” a workshop to explore what fuels your fire of commitment. Simple tools and discussion will identify your personal ministry. If you don’t think you have one, this is a conversation for you. If you think you have one, but are tired and drained, this is a conversation for you. Beth Putnam and Jennifer Jackson will lead this short workshop.
