We
Cry Justice: Reading the Bible with the Poor People’s Campaign
Edited by Liz Theoharis
Easter is a season of rebirth and renewal. A reminder that Jesus
restored and redeemed humanity’s relationship with God. Jesus
commanded us to love God and to love our neighbors. Yet so many
around us are in need. Join us as we reflect on the command to love
your neighbor by discussing select scripture passages in Matthew
guided by We Cry Justice. We Cry Justice is a collection of
devotions designed to provide hope, strength, and inspiration for
those in the margins through a reimagining and reexamination of
Biblical texts.

News from PLUM
Closed captioning is now available on our ZOOM meetings and worship
services. We are considering investigating the addition of a sign
language interpreter to ZOOM worship services. We MAY also
investigate adding sound amplifiers to our churches (if viable).
A
lack of readers is still the biggest issue on our ZOOM worship
services. Please include the following blurb in your bulletin and/or
newsletter to see if we can get more volunteers for this important
aspect of the ZOOM worship.
ZOOM worship has continued to be a vital part of our weekly worship
opportunities. Each week, a person is needed to join the worship
service and read the congregational parts and lessons printed in the
ZOOM bulletin. Please prayerfully consider volunteering to take on
this role on one of our weekly ZOOM worship services. It only
requires an hour of your time on Sunday Afternoon (3-4pm), but the
outreach we are providing from these worship services are priceless.
If you can assist in this ministry, please let your office staff or
a Pastor know, so that you can be included. Thank you for your
consideration.

On Sunday, January 1, 2020, we joined the Pittsburgh Lutheran United Ministries (PLUM) as a one-year trial member. Then, on Sunday, November 22, 2020, we voted to join PLUM as a full member of PLUM.
PLUM will provide our pastoral leadership, but we still need to perform the church 'office' functions, as well as maintain our church building and grounds. Contact the church office, if you need any pastoral care (wedding, funeral, hospital visits, etc.)
