September Already…Wait…What?


This Sunday marks the first day of September.  We will be celebrating the Lord’s Supper during our 10am worship.  As this concludes the month of August, we have concluded our trial run of the 11am worship service.  Now we are going to take some time to consider the results, to get feedback, and to consider, in the light of the repair work that we pray will soon will begin on the church, when and how we will move forward.

Presbyterian Women will have their first meeting of the Season after 10am worship on Sunday, September 8, 2019.  Please come join us the kickoff to a new year of fellowship and mission. 

Work on the church does not yet have a start date.  As of this moment, there is still work to be done with the insurance company.  There will be a conversation today, August 29, that we hope will be one of the final steps to moving forward.  Our adjuster, Frank Boyle, has been working hard to move this forward.

Until we have some kind of time frame in mind, and a sense of what the work will entail, we are not scheduling a Kick Off Sunday for the Fall.  When we have a better sense of the time of the repair work, we will.  It will be a celebration to get back into the Sanctuary and open that beautiful space back up to the worship of the Lord.  Please pray for us and for our movement toward that date.  It is frustrating to have everything on hold until we can get matters finally settled.

We are the First Presbyterian Church of Perth Amboy.  We offer our hearts eagerly and sincerely to the Lord.  We are here to be with you, through all.  This is who we are as a neighborhood in the Kingdom of God.

Peace,
Pastor Peter
