Book Club Minimize
The Parker UCC Book Club will be happening again in April and is open to everyone.  The next book we are reading is actually a series of letters which are described below. You can get your own copy or I will have copies of the book in March for all those who wish to read it.
 
Please join us for discussion (even if you don’t read the book, as it usually inspires us to read it), fellowship and dessert!

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
                                                                       by Mary Ann Shaffer & Annie Barrows
 
 It's January, 1946, and London is emerging from the shadow of World War II. Author Juliet Ashton is having a terrible time finding inspiration for her next book when she gets a letter from Dawsey Adams from Guernsey, a British island that had been occupied by the Nazis. He finds her address in a used Charles Lamb volume and wonders if she might be able to help him learn more about the author. As Juliet and Dawsey exchange letters, she learns about the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, a unique book club formed on the spur-of-the-moment, as an alibi to protect its members from arrest by the Germans. Captivated, Juliet sets sail for Guernsey, and what she finds there will change her life forever.

Sophia's Minimize

Sophias is Parker UCC women's fellowship group that meets once a month.  The group meets to support the church, community and most of all each other.  Our 2010 goals are:

• Support Parker Task Force
• Cook for Douglas County Women’s Crisis Center
• Support our Church's Pastoral Care Team
• Support our Youth Group
• Teach Sophias to Text ;)
• Keep a Prayer Chain
• Support Each Other in All Ways Possible

 

At the February meeting of Sophias we chose to support the Parker Food Bank by helping with their collection of food at local grocery stores. We are also planning the preparation of a meal for the Douglas County Women’s Shelter in May. 

Erica Courtright is organizing a group who would like to get together for fellowship and doing handwork, e.g. knitting, crocheting, cross-stitch, etc. The group eill be called "Close Knit Friends", catchy don't you think.  If you are interested, please get in touch with Erica. 

 

Our April meeting will be at 7:00 p.m. at Panera in Parker, April 5th

Notes from our Music Minister Minimize

The music ministry continues to evolve to reflect our unique congregation.  Several soloists have given their talents to our special music on Sunday mornings.  With Easter around the corner, it would be great to have a choir piece to celebrate Easter morning.  Anyone who is interested in joining us for this holiday singing can join us after the Sunday service on March 14th for rehearsal.  We will spend about 20 minutes working on our Easter anthem.  

I'd also like to invite any instrumentalists to help us lead music.  Commitment will be based on availability and need. 
 
A special thank you to all who give their time and talent in leading music in worship. It wouldn't happen without you.
