Don’t forget to turn your clocks back an hour tonight!
The Synod Assembly gathering earlier this week included a special decommissioning service for our building in Camp Hill, which the Synod has been located in since 1961. We are currently in the final stages of the process of downsizing and will be completely moved out (along with the Presbytery of Carlisle) in November. You can view the decommissioning service by clicking below.
With the presidential election next week, the West Virginia and Pennsylvania Councils of Churches have released statements asking for peaceful times. "As the 2020 election draws near, we wish to reissue this call to civility. We urge candidates and citizens alike to refrain from a rhetoric of anger and violence. Such speech and rhetoric are damaging to the body politic and to our relationships with one another, stealing the humanity of our sisters, brothers, and neighbors in ...the process." - WV Council of Churches "We call upon our neighbors everywhere to respect our differences, and to come together to ensure that we have a safe, secure, and accurate election. We support peaceful demonstration upholding the right of all eligible persons to vote, and we denounce attempts to intimidate or perpetrate violence on those who attempt to exercise that right." - PA Council of Churches Downloadable and printable link here: https://www.syntrinity.org/wp-cont//2020/10/Statements.pdf
