2 ORDER OF WORSHIP January :00 am Welcome to First Worship! We extend a welcome as broad as the outstretched arms of God, who calls us to be here together to rejoice in God s glorious presence. Welcome to children of all ages to all the children of God, each one of us. If you are an old friend or here for the first time, we welcome you. Our worship is an intergenerational experience and we want children to feel fully included. We remember that worship offers us all a special place to be with God. In this space we talk a little more softly and walk a little more quietly. We are listening for God. PRELUDE RINGING IN THE HOUR Come Whoever You Are CALL TO WORSHIP Jocelyn Gardner Spencer

8 TODAY S NOTES Pastoral Care If you have any pastoral needs or know of any in the Village Church family, please call Kathy Musser at , ext 14. The Chancel flowers are given today to celebrate the 100th birthday of Barry Miller s grandmother. An Invitation from the Community Ministry After 10 am Worship, Upper Room Community Ministry is exploring ways to expand our ministry of keeping in touch with our church members who would be grateful for a friendly visit every now and then. Our experience is that these visits are welcomed so easily and appreciated so very much. If this is something you would like to hear more about, and think you d be interested in, come join us after 10 am worship in the Upper Room (upstairs) where Ron Smith and Kathy Musser will talk more about our ideas, and the sort of training we ll be offering to equip you more fully for this ministry. Fellowship Hour 11:15 am, Village Common Please join us for coffee and fellowship. Information for visitors is available at the Welcome Table. Providing hospitality today is the Wednesday Morning Bible Study Group. Please take a moment to thank them. Village Church Birthday Celebration 11:15 am, Burtt Chapel We want to celebrate your birthdays with you! We invite all those with January birthdays to join us for a few minutes in the Chapel. Blood Pressure Clinic 11:15 am, Kathy Musser s office Trained nurses from our congregation will take your blood pressure and provide you with helpful handouts from the American Heart Association. Junior Choir Rehearsal 11:15 am, Youth Choir Room B6 Abernethy Award Forum 11:30 am, Parlor Please join us in the parlor following 10am worship to hear from The Rev. Jack Lewis, leader and founder of WAGLY (West Suburban Alliance of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Youth), this year's Abernethy Award recipient. Call to Congregational Meeting 11:30 am, Sanctuary This morning, there will be a Congregational Meeting. At this meeting, the Pastoral Residency Program Sustainability Task Force will present a motion to the Congregation to approve the establishment of the Pastoral Residency Endowment Fund. The purpose is to provide a separate account vehicle to take and hold contributions given in support of the Pastoral Residency Program. Notice of Congregational Hearing 11:30 am, Sanctuary The Board of Finance will review the preliminary 2013 Church Budget in the Sanctuary following the Congregational Meeting. All members are encouraged to attend.

9 Second Sunday Bible Study 11:30, Library We invite you to join us for a monthly Bible Study focused on the preaching text of the day. No commitment necessary -- come whenever you're able. We meet the second Sunday of each month. All are welcome! Parking The Holman family has always been very generous in letting church members park on Sundays in their main parking lot off Church St., behind their Church Square stores (E. A. Davis, Blue Ginger, etc.). However, they request that we do NOT park in their back lot, off Abbott St. It contains assigned spaces for store tenants, who often come to work before noontime on Sundays and must park in their respective spaces. Some of our members have been parking in that lot, occupying tenants' spaces; but from now on it would be appreciated if we all would confine our parking to the main lot immediately behind Davis's and Blue Ginger. We are welcome there. Thank you. 7th & 8th Grade Youth Group 5 pm, Youth Room High School Youth Group 7 pm, Youth Room For information about youth programs, contact Pam Emslie at x15 or pam@wellesleyvillagechurch.org.

January is our Season of Covenant Join us as we celebrate and seek to strengthen the ties we share as members of Village Church. Last year we did so with our first-ever congregation-wide calling initiative- 60 Deacons making phone calls to every member to thank you for being a part of this church. It was such a success that we are eager to do so again. We will not be asking survey questions or asking for money, but simply to inquire how things are going with you? We see these calls as an important way for us to live out our covenant vows with one another. Deacons will be making these calls the week of January You can do your prayer by well, by answering your phone that week! The conversations need not be long, but our Deacons would love to talk with you in person. The Village Church Moms' Group We will have our January Dinner on Tuesday, January 15 at 7 pm, at the home of Darcey Bartel. This casual, 'come when you can' group, welcomes moms of all ages for monthly get-togethers away from the family, usually for a dinner in someone's home or a restaurant, or perhaps for a service opportunity. It's a great way to meet new friends and other Moms at our church. If you are interested in being on our distribution list, please Amy Hille at amyhille@yahoo.com, or if you are interested in attending the dinner on the 15th. We hope you can join us!
