 The Book of Amos: The God Who Roars Against Sin
SUN JAN 21, 28, FEB 4, & FEB 11 | 9:45 AM | Granary Room
Come explore key themes of the book of Amos in this interactive, informal, four-week Christian Formation series led by Pastor Julian L. We will consider “The God who roars against sin” (ch. 1-2), “The God who demands to be heard” (ch. 3-6), “The God who rises against Israel” (ch. 7-9:10), and “The God who restores David’s fallen tent” (ch. 9:11-15). 

Shepherding a Small Group
SUN JAN 21, 28, & FEB 4 | 9:45 AM & 5:30 PM | Common Room
This class will provide an opportunity to learn about launching and/or leading a new small group. We will walk through Jesus’ small group approach on the Road to Emmaus (Luke 24) to learn about the core ingredients of a flourishing group. We will also talk through some practical tips for shepherding a group all while embodying the small group experience in the class. This class will be led by Pastor Damian Long. 

SUN, JAN 28 | 9:45 AM (Fellowship Hall), 12:30 PM (Missions Conference Room), and 5:30 PM (Granary Room)

We are in need of temporary housing and vehicles to borrow for three missionary families that will be with us later this year – a family of four and a family of five in June/July, and a family of three from August through October. Please contact the Missions Office at [email protected] if you or someone you know might be able to help.

Church Clerk, Debbie Gallagher, sent an email a couple weeks ago publishing the slate of PSC members who have been nominated to be candidates for the positions of officers, elders and members of the Nominating Committee for 2024. We encourage you to review it in advance of the Annual Meeting (SUN, FEB 25). Please visit the Church Center app or parkstreet.org/candidates to view the slate online.

SUN, FEB 25 | Time TBA | Park Street Church

Please mark your calendars for this year’s Annual Meeting on SUN, FEB 25. This is an important time in the life of the church when we vote for a slate of candidates to fulfill roles on the Board of Elders, the Nominating Committee and as church officers. Annual budgets for the church will also be approved. Park Street Church active members will be allowed to vote, but whether or not you’re a member we encourage you to attend! More information about the meeting and childcare details will be available soon.

The Woman’s Benevolent Society (WBS) would be happy to “upcycle” your canceled stamps and Christmas cards. The stamps go to the stamp ministry at Shell Point’s Village Church in Florida, where residents trim and sort stamps for resale to stamp dealers. The money raised is used to provide Spanish Sunday School curriculum and evangelical literature for children in South America. The cards are transformed into tree ornaments, some for Child Evangelism Fellowship in New York City, some for us to share with homebound Park Streeters, and some shared at worship gatherings at rehab facilities and nursing homes.

You can drop off your cards and stamps in the box in the Ockenga Lobby. Please leave a generous border around each stamp.

“How much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!” Matthew 7:11

Let us pray together…

• That we, and believers around the world, would be encouraged by the witness of those who have gone before us and those who surround us to run with endurance.
• For Elementary, middle, high school, and college students and teachers of Massachusetts at the start of the new semester: that the truth of God would be seen and taught.
• For our church: that we would hear the Lord and walk in his ways. That we would see our idols diminish to nothing in the awesome light of Jesus Christ.
• That we would listen to and act on Jesus’ call to love the poor.
