DONOR SABBATH

National Donor Sabbath was observed at First Presbyterian Church of Wheaton on November 16, 2003. Speakers at all three services provided personal information about this gift of life. A table was set up in Stewart Hall with photos and memories of a few of the people who have donated tissues and organs or received these incredible gifts.

CONTEMPORARY WORSHIP SERVICE

Our Two or More Praise Band led in worship, and our Genesis Choir sang "Lord Let My Heart Be Good Soil" during both the 8:40 and 11:00 a,m. services, which were contemporary in style.

BLOOD PRESSURE SCREENINGS

On the third Sunday of every month, which included November 16, 2003, volunteers from our Health Ministry Team do blood pressure screenings before and after worship services. Mary Ross Southworth, Pharm D, is the coordinator of this service.

PECAN SALES

Presbyterian Women began their holiday sales of one-pound bags of pecans on Sunday, November 16, before and after the 8:40 and 11:00 a.m. worship services. The proceeds from the sales of these $7,00 bags of pecans go toward PW missions.
