CROP Hunger Walk
CROP Hunger Walk is a fundraiser for poverty/hunger. The PALM churches will be joining together to participate on Saturday October 14 from 9 AM to noon. The walk will start at St. Peter’s in Reigelsville and continue down the towpath. Stay tuned for more information on this project!

Church Cleanup Day
Come out on Saturday, 10/7 at 9 AM and help us clean up the church and grounds! Some projects we may be tackling: weeding the flower beds, raking leaves and removing branches/twigs, organizing the storage area in the kitchen, and organizing files. There will be something to do for everyone of all physical abilities. Mark your calendar!


Sharing God’s Gifts = Sharing God’s Love

We’ve resumed in-person worship and a few of our ministries, and we’d like to do more! Sharing God’s Word and love requires everyone’s faithful support. If you prefer to worship from home, please continue to share gifts to help us to maintain our outreach ministries, facilities and staff.

Please mail offerings & special gifts to:
UTLC, PO Box 166, Upper Black Eddy, 18972.


5th Sunday Downstairs Worship
Ever get tired of climbing the stairs to our upstairs sanctuary? On the 5th Sunday of the month (when one occurs) we will have worship downstairs in the Fellowship Hall. The next month with 5 Sundays is October-BUT we will have downstairs worship on the 4th Sunday Oct. 22 because Oct. 29 is Reformation Sunday. Mark your calendars!

We will be having a potluck lunch on 10/22, our downstairs worship day in October.

Ed Peterson Memorial Award
The first annual Ed Peterson Memorial Award scholarships were awarded to Lindsay Ulrey and William Clifford, seniors at Palisades High School. Diane Marshall presented the awards at the High School awards ceremony on Monday, May 22. Congratulations to both these young people and best wishes for the future!

We were pleased to have had one of the scholarship recipients, William Clifford, join us last week to share a piano piece with us.  If you missed it, the replay is available on our Facebook page. (You can fast forward to the 22-minute mark to see his performance.)  Please join us on June 25th when Lindsay Ulrey will share their talents with us.

The Future Church
The ELCA’s Future Church model is based on the belief that the goal of Christ’s Church is to introduce more people to the way of Jesus and experience God’s grace in action.  This new design identifies three priority areas: a welcoming church that engages new, young and diverse people; a thriving church rooted in tradition and radically relevant; and a connected, sustainable church that shares in a common purpose and direction. Be the Church!

A Prayer for Our Nation     As a nation, we mourn the the violence and loss of life that occurred at our nation's Capitol on Wednesday, Jan. 6, 2021. As Christians, we are reminded of the "Great Commandment" that Jesus teaches us, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength and mind and your neighbor as yourself." Please keep our elected leaders & their staffs, security forces, first responders and all citizens of all political ideologies in your prayers. Also pray for peace and justice for all God's children, everywhere. 

 “Eternal God, amid all the turmoil and changes of the world your love is steadfast and your strength never fails. In this time of danger and trouble, be to us a sure guardian and rock of defense. Guide the leaders of our nation with your wisdom, comfort those in distress, and grant us courage and hope to face the future; through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Amen.”    (ELW additional prayers)
UTLC is still going strong during the search and selection of our next Pastor.
