Calendar of Events - October 2007
Worship Schedule
The October schedule has a number of special worship opportunities, and we hope you will be here to share in all of them.
Sunday, October 7: The first Sunday of the month is Worldwide Communion Sunday. We will share the Lord's Supper together in union with our Christian brothers and sisters around the globe. Our guest preacher will be a long-time friend of Olivet, Rev. Alan Thomson. There will be a coffee hour after worship celebrating October birthdays and anniversaries.
Sunday, October 14: On the second Sunday, we will welcome Rev. Mieke Vandersall to the pulpip. Mieke is presently serving as the chairperson of the Committee on Preparation for Ministry for New York City Presbytery. Mieke has been Melodee's mentor throughout much of Melodee's seminary experience.
Sunday, October 21: On the third Sunday of the month, we will welcome back Rosemarie Napoli. Rosemarie is an elder at The Chuch of Gethsemane in Brooklyn. She is a student at NYTS and has just completed four units of CPE (Clinical Pastoral Education) which qualifies her to seek ordination as a chaplain in a hospital, prison or other setting. We are grateful for Rosemarie's commitment to preach at Olivet throughout the year.
Sunday, October 28: The last Sunday of the month is Memorial Sunday. Melodee will be the preacher. We will remember all those from our congregation and friends who have died in the previous year, and for whom gifts have been made to the church. We invite family and friends from many places to join us this week.
