This is the time of year when we all look forward to the holidays. With just a few days break after our Thanksgiving drive, we are looking ahead to the Christmas food drive. We need your help!
Donations of both food and time are vital to this outreach mission. Food donations are needed for holiday baskets and to replenish the food cupboard.

Volunteer for Basket Distribution on November 18,19, and 22nd
The Germantown Avenue Crisis Ministry (GACM) for the past several years has conducted a very successful Thanksgiving event by providing a total Thanksgiving meal with all the trimmings to over 200 families in our community. This wonderful undertaking could not and can not take place without your continued support. We have the best members in the world and we thank God for your generosity.
In order to continue this tradition, we once again reach out to you for your food and financial support as well as your physical assistance. There are many ways you can help!
We need volunteers to collect food, assemble gift baskets and help out on distribution days. As a volunteer, you will be asked to bag food, make pick ups, stock shelves and assist as needed. Help will be needed before and during the basket distribution dates of November 18, 19 and 22. See Eileen Jones to add your name to the list of volunteers.

Join Us for Our Concert Series
We are proud to host the Presbybop Quartet on October 31st.
Presbybop Music is a musical venture of Bill Carter, jazz pianist and Presbyterian minister. After years of pretending to split the life of faith from the music of jazz, Bill has been trying to find links between the two halves of his brain. Presbybop Music is his attempt to integrate his strong Presbyterian faith with the rhythms of bebop.
In 1993 he formed the Presbybop Quartet with Al Hamme, his college music professor from Binghamton University. Beginning with original lineup of drummer Tom Whaley and bassist Tony Marino, the band has evolved into a consort of musicians who have been turning heads on the musical scene - and adding new dimensions to the faith and worship of the Christian church.
