NEWS BRIEF!
Keeping Close
A news brief from FPC and your Session Thursday, July 30, 2020 Black Mountain Home Really Needs Our Help During its 116-year history, the Home has faced many challenges, but maybe none as sudden or unsettling as the COVID-19 virus. This pandemic has affected the mission of the Home in many ways, including financially. Several fundraisers that normally support the work of the Home have been cancelled or delayed, leaving the board and administrators facing a budget shortfall of perhaps $250,000. First Presbyterian’s own August Community Concert has been cancelled. For years, Macon County residents and FPC congregates have enjoyed Sunday afternoon musical performances followed by a reception, offered to promote interest in and donations to the Black Mountain Home. We strongly urge you to donate to support Black Mountain as generously as you have in past years. You can drop off a check in the Church Office between 9 AM and 12 noon on Monday. Please write your check to First Presbyterian Church, noting FOR BMHCYF on the memo line. Donors, you have an added incentive; for every gift of $10 or more, your names will be considered to receive an unusual piece of mountain laurel yard art. Mission and Service Team members are planning to be on Main Street in front of Franklin County Courthouse on August 1st to encourage the public to donate in support of the Home. The names of the one recipient of the yard art and five runner-up winners of a special second prize will be announced Sunday, August 2nd. Starting This Week Call the church office to make a reservation for one of our Tuesdays in August gatherings. Only 25 can attend each event (first come first serve). Here are the dates and locations for our time of fellowship, information and brief worship: August 4 10 a.m. Tartan Hall August 11 7 p.m. Big Bear Shelter August 18 11 a.m. Tartan Hall (note change) August 25 7 p.m. Tassee Shelter Continued...
Please Note: Calendar updated 3/13/2020.
