Volunteers needed Dec 6-7
An unusual volunteer opportunity is awaiting you this holiday season early enough so that it won’t take away time from your celebrations, your own gift wrapping.
The opportunity is to help assemble holiday packages for the approximately 3,900 inmates at Graterford Prison. In a huge warehouse on the prison grounds, you will gather with other men and women from area churches and retirement communities to prepare the gifts.
Bags in hand, you will circle tables on which such items as socks, date books, TastyKakes, instant coffee and hot chocolate are stacked high for you to pick up and put in the bags.

A simple and convenient way to show your Generosity
This fall we are asking all FPCG members and friends to consider signing up for electronic giving.
The First Presbyterian Church in Germantown relies on the financial support of the congregation and electronic giving offers an easy way to give on a recurring basis. Many in our congregation give in this way and find it very helpful.
Please contact Kathy Charlesworth at the church office for details 215-843-8811.

This Sunday, October 23 after Worship!
The annual Deacons‘ Day Brunch is a wonderful opportunity for you to spend time with the deacon assigned to your family, as well as other members and friends of the congregation.
With the help of the Congregational Development and Fellowship Committee, a delicious brunch will be served ($5.00 suggested donation).
FPCG members recently received an invitation from their deacons. Please call the church or your deacon and let us know that you will be coming - your presence will help us learn how to serve one another better as brothers and sisters in Christ.

Sharone Gaither Performs Sunday at 7pm
Few performers embody the spirit of the Bread and Cup Coffeehouse as much as Sharone Gaither, the October 2 headliner for our 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. celebration of the arts and agape feast.
Ms. Gaither is a long-time resident of Germantown who discovered her gifts as a poet when she was struggling to come to terms with personal tragedy. Thankfully, she recognized that the poetry which was so healing for her was also a source of inspiration to people of all ages from all walks of life.
She credits Bread and Cup as one of the first venues to welcome her artistic talents, and in return, she has been an enthusiastic supporter of our coffeehouse and a board member of Creative Germantown Initiative (CGI) on Bread and Cup‘s behalf.

We were blessed on Sunday to be led in worship by FPCG’s newest choir!
This diverse ensemble not only reflects our cultural and age diversity, but is helping our congregation experience diverse ways of worshiping the Lord. Keeping Christ at the center, this new group is committed to exploring new and fresh ways of leading us into God’s presence.
Gospel music is written to express a personal, spiritual, or communal belief regarding Christian life. The themes of Gospel music center around praise, worship, and giving thanks to God, Christ, and the Holly Spirit.
Interested? If you love to worship and are able to rehearse on Sunday’s after church, we would love to have you join us! Please contact Donna Payne (215-450-7963) or Joanne Elliott (215-725-0420) for more information.
