1 Pastor s Notes GRACE NOTES September 2017 It has been hard to see the pictures coming from Houston and surrounding areas in the wake of Hurricane Harvey without being overcome by grief or sadness or despair. Highways turned to rivers, homes virtually overtopped by floodwaters, desperate rescues, all suggest a once-in-a-lifetime horror. Except, of course, that most of us are plenty old enough to remember what Hurricane Katrina did to New Orleans. Houston and surrounding areas are, once the immediate disaster finally subsides, facing a very long-term period of recovery and rebuilding. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA), the disaster -recovery agency of the Presbyterian Church (USA), will be a part of that effort. As described on its webpage (pda.pcusa.org), PDA, whose primary ongoing funding comes through the denomination s One Great Hour of Sharing offering, enables congregations and mission partners of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A) to witness to the healing love of Christ through caring for communities adversely affected by crisis and catastrophic event. PDA s work is long-term; their work rebuilding in and around New Orleans continued for a decade, as long as there were homes needing repair. I have no doubt PDA s commitment in Houston will be equally enduring, as long as it takes to get the job done. The insert in your Sunday bulletin offers ways to help with financial support immediately. This need, however, is going to continue for years to come. There may be opportunities for different means of support in the near future, and those will be passed along as they become available. In the meantime, pray. Pray for those who have suffered such traumatic loss; pray for those who continue to put themselves at grave risk to rescue others; pray for leaders to have the vision and will to do the right thing in the wake of this disaster; and pray for those who will commit to the ongoing work of recovery.
2 Anna Circle begins their fall study "Ten Women of the Bible" by Max Lucado on Tuesday, September 12th at 10 AM in Fellowship Hall. All women are invited to join us in a time of study, fellowship and refreshments. Libby Richardson will present the first lesson on Sarah. Page 2 PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN HONORARY LIFE MEMBERSHIP Congratulations to Dorothy Nevill, Presbyterian Women Honorary Life Membership recipient. The members of Anna Circle of Presbyterian Women at Grace church presented the award to Dr. Dorothy Nevill on August 6 during the worship service. Dorothy received an honorary life pin and personalized certificate. Her 2 sons, Robert and David, and her grandchildren participated in the worship service. Dorothy and Gale joined Grace on November 13, Throughout the past fifty plus years, Dorothy has served in many roles...mother of two sons, an educator at University of Florida, and in service and ministry here at Grace. Following her retirement from UF, she attended Columbia Seminary tackling the difficult Greek language. Dorothy has been an elder on numerous terms of Session, participated in the Stephen Ministry, been a delegate for General Assembly, served on various Presbytery committees, taught Sunday school and confirmation classes and led circle lessons. She has chaired 2 pulpit nominating committees; most recently when Reverend Charles Freeman was called to serve at Grace. Her energy and spirit are boundless as she serves our Lord in so many ways...thank you Dorothy for being you...we love you. ABOUT THE PIN The caring, supportive hands represent women who seek to build an inclusive community of Presbyterian Women. The leaf represents growth of our personal and corporate response to Jesus Christ as we nurture our faith. The dove, shown in the globe, indicates our work for peace in our own lives and throughout the world. At the center of the design is the cross, by which our sins are forgiven and we are freed to live in Christ who is at the center of our lives. The overall design is of a butterfly, a symbol of newness in Christ.
