1st Explorers Crochet Program to Begin in January
First Explorers would like to teach our students how to crochet. Counselor Bonnie crochets and we are looking for additional crochet artists this winter to help her teach some of our older students the art form. We are also in need of crochet hooks if you have any at home the students could use, please consider donating.
Thanksgiving Worship
Our church has been asked to provide savory hors d'oeuvres for the
evening of worship at First Presbyterian Church. Thank you so much!
1st Explorers After-School Ministry Update
Giving the Jesus Way
United Christian Ministries requests that we temporarily suspend providing supplies and instead provide monetary donations. Given the current situation with Hurricane Helene’s suppliers, the needs of clients are changing daily. A monetary donation will allow them to purchase specifically what is needed at any point in time. To donate, please drop off a check at 191 Skyland Drive or mail it to PO Box 188, Sylva, NC 28779. Thank you!

A $100 deposit is due November 30 for each child or youth attending Passport.
Please take your check or cash by the church office as soon as possible.
Please let Kaitlyn Cabaniss know if you are planning to attend Passport this year.
Spaces are limited, so please hurry and register with her.
A Way You Can Help
The relief needs are changing daily. The immediate needs at this time are: heaters, basement dehumidifiers, Visa cards, cash, and prayers. We do not need any more clothing or cleaning supplies donated for the time being.
That said, there are so many great ways to help our WNC neighbors in need. May I offer what I heard folks saying they needed to better serve hard hit areas like Mitchell and Yancey Counties? HEAT!!!
Please consider this as a possible way to honor a family member or loved one for early birthday or Christmas present.
You can ask that it be shipped to: Helene Recovery Coalition, 2002 Riverside Drive, Asheville, NC 28804 (or you may also leave donations in the Loving Kindness Room at the church). This is the staging warehouse serving WNC counties. Thank you!
