ST JOHN UNITED CHURCH

204 Seventh Street
St. John Ucc Missions collects blankets for Church
World Service and pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House in
Springfield
The Mission Ministry of St. John United Church of Christ Church, 204
Seventh Street in Lincoln has announced Blanket Sunday will be
during the worship service at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, February 24th.
This is the time of year when weather here in Logan County calls for
many to seek an extra blanket for warmth in our own lives. Because
many do not even have a blanket for warmth, Blanket Sunday, an
ongoing project of the Church World Service, has been supported by
the church from the beginning.
Church World Service is able to obtain blankets for $10 each which
in turn are distributed to refugees, disaster victims and homeless
wherever the need arises. Every year Church World Service
distributes tens of thousands of blankets to people in distress.
These blankets provide warmth, shelter and security for those who
receive them.
Collection of pop tabs continues to be a project of the Missions
Ministry as well. Recycled pop tabs help fund the Ronald McDonald
House in Springfield that provides housing for the families of
children being treated at the hospitals there.
Those in the community who have no outlet for recycling the pop tabs
are invited to drop them at St. John UCC or give them to one of the
church members to put in the “Tab Tub” for Ronald McDonald House in
Springfield.
Questions on either of these projects can be directed to Verdeen
Ingram, Mission co-chair.

KIDS WORSHIP at Lincoln Christian Church—February 2019
Are you a good giver? How do people become good givers? Do you know
a good giver? What does a good giver do? Can kids be givers; can
kids be good givers? Giving, it seems, is easier for some people
than for others. Yet, we all are often moved by the generosity of
others who we witness blessing the needs around them.
During the month of February in Kids Worship time, we will look at
some biblical givers! We’ll see how they gave their talents, time,
treasures and lives to God. We will discover how they were motivated
to give selflessly. If you would like to encourage and review this
study with your child, the weekly topics are listed below (the
weekly point is listed in italics). During this month we will focus
on a key verse from Matthew 10:8, “Give as freely as you have
received.”
• The Israelites Build the Tabernacle. Exodus 35:6,10–36:7;
We use our talents for God.
• Nehemiah Gives His Time to Rebuild the Wall. Nehemiah 2:1–6:16;
We use our time for God.
• Jesus Tells About the Widow’s Offering. Mark 12:41–44.
We give our treasures to God.
• The Rich Young Ruler. Matthew 19:16–26.
We give our lives to God.
