Sharing our JOYS: 

at the Eastern Association meeting on November 7, 2009 in Las Vegas, the Association granted standing to the Congregational Christian Church of American Samoa, Las Vegas.  Let's all join the celebration and welcome the congregation and their pastor, Rev. Ailao Tofaeono, to the Conference and the whole United Church of Christ!  (A note of welcome may be sent to the pastor and congregation at 1200 N. Eastern Ave. Las Vegas, NV 89101).
 
Sharing our Prayer Concerns:
Our sympathy to Rev. Kit Wilke and family at the recent death of his mother, a resident of Pilgrim Place.

Our prayerful concern goes out to Rev. Larry Grim, pastor of First Congregational UCC in Santa Ana, who was hospitalized late last week but is recovering well and has been released to a rehabilitation unit.
With You in Prayer,
