This is our 7th year of gathering funds for this purpose. Over these past seven years this offering has assisted association members to participate in mission trips all over the world. Special envelopes will be provided or just indicate donation for “Have a Heart” on check. GUM DROP, NFP News They have been back to packing bags for 6 months now, averaging 1,400 bags a week. They have added Unity Point School and the Boy’s and Girls Club both out of Carbondale this year. They still have 3 more school districts wanting to come aboard and be a part of the Gum Drop family. Last school year they provided 36,934 meals. How can we help? Needed items: pudding packs, oatmeal, granola bars, fruit cups, Vienna sausages, ramen noodles and small microwavable meals (or monetary donation). Please consider purchasing needed supplies and bringing to UBC. We have a box outside the sanctuary for collection. “Our purpose at University Baptist Church is to show Christ’s love to the local and global community through worship, fellowship & ministry.” Weekly Calendar: NEWSLETTER OF THE UNIVERSITY BAPTIST CHURCH - FEBRUARY 1, 2015 VOL. 51 NO. 3 As you read this article we will be heading into the month of February. February is known for many things. We will have the big football finale of the Super Bowl and as many feast sitting around the TV watching the game we will be reminded of those who have no food to feast on. So, even if you did not get to church to give to the SOUPER bowl you can do so at any time. This money will go to Good Samaritan Ministries Food Bank housed here at UBC. It is a time for us to reflect upon our relationship with the poor. February is also Black History month. It is a good time for us to celebrate the great strides we have made in relationships among our races but take note of the reality that the race is not run. As always we can contemplate how our own activities will move us forward as we reflect upon our relationship with other races. February is also Valentine’s Day. A day card makers and chocolate and flower vendors live for. It is a great time for us to reflect upon our relationships with those close to us. This year February also has Ash Wednesday in it. This is the beginning of Lent as we make a spiritual journey toward Easter Sunday. As part of this spiritual journey we will be doing our Bible Study using the book, “Who Is This Man?” The subtitles is: “The unpredictable Impact of the Inescapable Jesus.” The author, John Ortberg, reminds us that Jesus was not just a historical person who lived more than 2000 years ago but he IS the person who continues to impact the world in ways that no other person has or does. In light of that we are invited to examine our relationship with God who comes to us in Jesus Christ. February is the shortest month of the year and yet this year it provides us the opportunity to examine many vital relationships in our lives. Pastor John Rev.
