Christmas is a time when those around us are excited and looking forward with anticipation, however not all of us share that excitement. The holidays are often difficult for those in grief or in physical pain. Join us this Sunday night as we remember our loved ones who have passed and pray healing over those who are experiencing illness.

We are blessed to live in a generous community! Year after year, our local Veterans have raised thousands of dollars for the Salvation Army Red Kettle Campaign. All the donations stay local through the help of Community Action for Wyoming County! But this year, the Red Kettle drive looks a little different. Even though our local grocery store closed, our Veterans want to make sure they continue to collect donations for the those in need. This year, there are small red kettles set up throughout the Village of Perry at various business; Kettles will also be at the Perry Farmers Market
in December and at the Holiday Delights on 12/6.

Red Kettles can be found at Old Souls Bakery, Country Belle Farm Market, Country Kitchen & Pizzeria, Bush Hill Florist and Gift Shoppe, John and Sarah's Family Restaurant, Daryl's Pizzeria, Perry Napa, Family Dollar, Perry Vet's Club, Crosby's, and Tompkins Community Bank, and Burt's Lumber & Building Supply

Donations can also be sent directly to the McKelton Post 350, PO Box 183, Perry.

Let's continue our great tradition of helping during the holidays!

We are deeply grieved by the assassination of Charlie Kirk today.

As your bishops, we want to take this moment to speak into the moment by reminding us all that violence of any kind is never the answer in situations like these. Public discourse engaged with both truth and grace must return to our collective consciousness as the only way to handle such issues. We are a people rooted in the love of God and the mercy and grace that are hallmarks of a life in Christ.

We are deeply grieved for Charlie’s widow, Erika Frantzve Kirk, and the deep sadness she and their children are experiencing in this unthinkable moment. We call our church to pray for them in their time of grief and intercede for them in the days to come.

Together, let us remind our nation that Jesus spoke these words in Matthew 5:9, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” May we be a people of peace as we decry public violence in all its forms.

Lord Jesus, we mourn for our nation and for the family of Charlie Kirk. We are deeply troubled over the increase of violence in our land and ask that You would comfort Erika Kirk and their children in this time of deep sorrow. We call upon Your Holy Spirit to surround them with Your love and mercy and comfort them. Lord, You are a God of love and peace – we therefore seek peace as Your way in all situations. Help us to model Your peace always that the world may know You as our ultimate Peacemaker. Let us be a people who show our global family that it is Your Holy Way, not the ways of the world, that are our source of strength and holy power in this world.

Amen.
“Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near” (Philippians 4:5).

Keith Cowart, Kenny Martin, and Kaye Kolde
