Crossroads II class for Sunday, January 29, 2023. A Piece of Local Civil War History That We Were Not Taught: The Marshall Plantation Raid. Part II. The class will be held in the Session Room.

1/26/2023

Bruce Seaman returns to us this Sunday with the second part of his presentation about the Marshall Plantation raid during the Civil War. He has recently published a book, To Succeed Where Others Failed: The Untold Story of the Marshall Plantation Raid.

This Sunday Bruce will speak about the raid itself. Like so many parts of our history involving Black Americans, this event has either been ignored or misrepresented. We look forward to continuing our discussion about this history and its relevance for us today.

Please join us for coffee (and on Zoom) at 8:45 and class will begin at 9:00.

A note about "Senior Cats and Seniors"- from Mr. Joe Long.

Prior to our Zoom service this morning, one of our faithful Zoom members, Joe Long, told me that he had lost the best furry friend he ever had. Joe lost his 11 year old cat due to kidney failure last week. It is a terrible loss to Joe, as he really loved that kitty.

However, on a brighter note, Joe learned about a shelter right here in Ocala named Sheltering Hands. They have a unique, totally free cat adoption program called "Seniors for Seniors".

Joe Long - saddened by the death of his cat...

Seniors can adopt a nice senior cat and there are no fees.

And, there is much more to the program to benefit seniors on a tight budget. Joe asked that I let folks know about this. Below, is a partial screenshot from their website and link to "Sheltering Hands".

Last Sunday, we lost sound from the choir and piano. Sometimes it feels like the photo below... but, we are trouble-shooting and hope to have it repaired for Sunday.

We now have a high speed internet connection for Zoom worship in the sanctuary - at NO additional monthly cost. Session room and Hope House are next!

Looking ahead - SCOUT SUNDAY: February 12, 2023, we welcome our wonderful Scout Troop and their families to our worship. They will be doing some of the leadership that day.

Thank you Daniel Banks for this photo!
