Pentecost Worship Service
Sunday, May 27th at 11:00
A celebration of the Holy Spirit still at work in our world.
Reaffirmation of Baptism
Pentecost Sunday
May 31st at 11:00 am
Join us for a celebration of the coming of the Holy Spirit as we remember our baptism through song, Scripture & the water of baptism.
Wear something red and welcome again the Spirit in your heart.
ON Thursday, April 9th, we will observe Maundy Thursday with an evening Seder and Communion Dinner, beginning at 7:00 pm. This evening is wonderful for all ages as we gather around tables and remember God’s mighty acts of deliverance for Israel in the context of Jesus’ Last Supper with his disciples. Moe details to follow, but be sure to save this evening during Holy Week.
On Sunday, Dec 21st, we are all gathering to take Christmas to our church members and friends who are homebound. We’ll carpool from the Church at 4:00 pm to make our driving easier and look forward to taking all ages to go and sing and visit. This is not about music; this is about God’s love that can laugh, give hugs, show we care and then, last of all, sing. Let Kathy Morse know if there’s someone you want us to stop by and see.
Looking ahead to Advent and Christmas….

Details to come, but be praying about these services in Advent. This is the season people are most open to coming to church for the first time. Who are you meant to bring to the manger this year?
Don’t forget that Shiloh tithed to two missions for the year 2008: We are sponsoring RoseHaven Transitional Home for Women and Children at $100/mo. and the Louisville Hispanic Outreach at $200/mo… Hopefully you put a little something extra into an envelope (provided in the pew) each Sunday towards these outreaches.
Is anyone else interested in a morning prayer group that would gather once a week to pray for Shiloh Church and her concerns, and also explore prayer as a spiritual practice? We could meet as early as 8 am or later and it could be Monday, Tuesday or Thursday. If you’re interested, just let Pastor Susan know and we’ll pick a time we can get together and explore what we might want to do.
