3 BECOME A PART OF CARING FOR OUR CONGREGATION A Care Team is comprised of 6-10 volunteers who respond to the practical needs of a congregation member experiencing illness. The Care Team's activities for their Care Partner may include transportation to the doctor or grocery store, errands, meals, social outings, or giving a caregiver a few hours of respite. The Care Partner defines the way(s) the Care Team can assist; all are aware the team will not be able to meet all needs of the Care Partner. The Care Team's activities are coordinated; a Team member's time commitment is 2-3 hours every five to six weeks. The Care Team model provides a wonderful, caring, organized structure of support that is enjoyable for all! If you would be interested in being part of this amazing and meaningful Ministry by assisting to coordinate our Teams, being on a team, or having a Care Team to assist you, please contact Susan Mobley ( or ) 40TH ANNUAL YORK COUNTY CROP WALK When: November 5, 2 pm begins registration and the walk starts at 3 pm Where: Dinkins Hall Lawn at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, SC How: 1 Walk on behalf of the hungry. 2 Sponsor a walker through a donation. 3 Buy a t-shirt (limited quantity) in the Narthex before/after either service for $5. 4 Donate canned goods to be collected at the walk and distributed to local families in need.

4 DIRECTIONS TO DAN S CELEBRATION DINNER Did you pay and reserve your seat for Dan's Dinner on November 4th at 6:00 pm but don't know how to get to the Adventure Center at Anne Springs Close Greenway? Here are directions to the Adventure Center from the Anne Springs Close Greenway website: FROM BALLENTYNE/LANCASTER... From Hwy 521 take Hwy 160 West 5 miles toward Fort Mill. Turn right on Springfield Parkway and travel approximately 2 miles. You will see a sign for the Anne Springs Close Greenway on the left across from the Springfield development. Turn in and proceed to the red Field Trial Barn; the Adventure Center is on the right. FROM I Take I-77 exit 88 / Gold Hill Road heading East toward Fort Mill. Road changes to Springfield Parkway. Travel 3.3 miles from I-77. You will see a sign for the Anne Springs Close Greenway on the right across from the Springfield development. Turn in and proceed to red Field Trial Barn; the Adventure Center is on the right. PACK 108 TIGERS AT WORK ON CAMPUS KNOWING MORE ABOUT FAMILY PROMISE GUIDELINES FOR ADMISSION This past Saturday, 13 Tiger Scouts from three different dens planted more than 75 spring bulbs, 30 Pansy plants, and spread 12 bales of pine needles by the Fellowship Hall driveway. In doing so, these young Scouts achieved four requirements towards their Tiger Rank. Well done! As if the stress of losing your job, your home, and stability for your family wasn t enough, and let s not forget the uncertainty that inevitably comes from those losses, there is a laundry list of things these families must do in order to receive help, and in the best of circumstances they would be overwhelming. NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN Help us honor a deserving woman of Unity. Nominations are being accepted for the Presbyterian Women Honorary Life Membership Award. Forms are in the church office, narthex, or online. Deadline is December 8th. Return forms to the church office. Please contact Ruth Boetsch at grboetsch@ comporium.net for more information. LAST SUNDAY S ATTENDANCE 8:45 am :00 am Sunday School One of the very first steps they are required to prove before receiving help from Family Promise is to meet the Federal Government s definition of homelessness. This is a lengthy criterion, albeit not very complicated, so we won t list it here. It s not hard to find if anyone s interested: just Google Federal definition of homelessness. If those requirements can t be met they are directed elsewhere and are unable to continue the screening process with Family Promise. Once they pass that hurdle, families must complete a criminal background check, a satisfactory substance abuse screen, and have no history of untreated chronic mental health issues. They must also be ready to achieve stable, long-term housing. In addition, they must be working towards employment, stabilizing their income and improving their money management skills. They also become involved in training opportunities to improve job and life skills, as well as participate in counseling, either informal or professional, to address social and emotional problems. This is a huge effort and commitment on the part of these families. They don t take it lightly, as evident by the success rate for guests in the program. Currently for 2017, Family Promise and its volunteers have helped 17 families (55 individuals). The average length of stay is about 54 days, and all of these families have completed the program successfully and have left to start their lives anew. Family Promise strives to empower these families to see beyond their current circumstances and to begin embracing a future of hope. The entire goal of Family Promise is to prepare those who walk through their doors to leave as effective members of the community.
