ECW NEWS
The ECW/Women of Manakin are pleased to announce the election of
Donna Crane as their new president. She has been active in the ECW especially before her work with Chesterfield County Public Schools. Donna will be more formally recognized on Sunday, September 12th.
There are several upcoming events at Manakin that the women of the church will host, and we need your help. We are hosting the fall meetings and luncheons of the Executive Board of the diocese on Saturday, September 18th, and of the Huguenot Society on Saturday, October 16th. Both events are opportunities for us to showcase Manakin as our church home and to show off our considerable culinary skills to these two groups. In so doing, we can also raise funds for our own group. To achieve these goals, we need your help with preparing and serving food, setting up and cleaning up. Please consider donating your time and/or a dish to either or both of these luncheons. We look forward to hearing from you and to working with you on these two important events.
Our Prayer
Almighty God, we pray that you will bless our work in mission and ministry in the world. Help us to pray fervently, labor diligently and give liberally to make known the power of your love given through your son Jesus Christ. Let us not forget the lessons from the past nor fear the challenges of the future. Anoint us with your grace and shine in our hearts as we reflect your light throughout the world. Amen.
