It was a wonderful weekend, and we're grateful to each of you

we can preserve this momentous occasion! Pictures can be
dropped off at the front desk or mailed to the UCC to Vanessa
Mena's attention. Thanks!**
Bring Us Your Left Over Candy!
Mobile Loaves & Fishes, Inc. (MLF) is a social outreach
ministry for the homeless and indigent working poor. One of
their missions is to serve food from catering trucks. They want to
provide sweet treats for the people they serve so each truck run
carries a bin of candy.
Every year MLF collects candy after Halloween-"Candy from
Heaven". Please help us collect "Candy from Heaven" for MLF
by bringing any extra candy you did not pass out, or any candy
you received to church on today and Nov. 9th. There will be bins
in the foyer to collect candy for MLF. These donations save
MLF lots of money that can be used for food.
Wednesday Carbos for Christ
Lambda Omega Alpha Fraternity invites all for food and fellow-
ship at 12:30 pm on Wed-nesdays in the Atrium. $3.00 suggested
donation.

Remembering Our Deceased Loved Ones
Traditionally, the month of November has been a special time
for the Church to remember its deceased loved ones. So that we
may keep your dear ones in prayer, we invite you to write the
names of your beloved dead in our Book of Remembrance.
We also invite you to bring pictures and mementos of your loved
ones for a special display near the Book of Remembrance. The
Paschal Candle, symbol of Christ's resurrection over death, will
be lit near the book each time we celebrate the Eucharist during
the entire month of November.
