SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE SUNDAY: a day where churches around the country celebrate God's gift of life, commemorate the many lives lost to abortion, and commit themselves to protecting human life at every stage. Our church will be partnering with Freeport Pregnancy Center in protecting life and offering hope to those facing an unplanned pregnancy through the Change for Life fundraiser. The Freeport Pregnancy Center works in our community to help teens, youth, women and families who are facing an unplanned pregnancy. They have been reaching out to people in need for over 27 years! Our church wants to support them in this ‘front-line’ ministry again this year by joining with them for their annual Change For Life. Please pick up an empty baby bottle from the foyer, take it home, and over the next few weeks fill it with coins, bills or checks and then return it to the church on Valentine’s Day weekend – February 16th. Your donations mean that the men and women who are facing an unplanned pregnancy in our community will have a place to turn to and will be informed, educated, and empowered to choose life. Our partnership with the Freeport Pregnancy Center will help erase abortion from our community one women, one child at a time.” FAITH COMMUNITY NURSING: The 1st & 3rd Sunday of each month Lori Allen, a registered nurse will be available after the service in the library to help with any health questions you might have.
