Fr. Justin Havens shares the following invitation:
“I pray this email finds you and your folks all well in this new year. I was writing to invite you and your people in the Orem/Provo community to come visit us this coming Friday night from 6-9pm at our newly-established Holy Apostles Orthodox Christian Mission church(280 W. Center St in Orem, turn between Holiday gas station and post office). Our goal is simply to introduce ourselves to all the people of Orem/Provo, regardless of religious affiliation, to let everyone know who we are, and that we are here to assist in the community. So, I humbly ask that you join us, or at least stop by this Friday night to meet us, see our chapel, and have a snack and say hello. I look forward to meeting you. I f you would be willing to forward the attached flyer to faithful congregation so that they can join us, I would be most thankful. I pray this new year is blessed and fruitful for you, your family, and people.”

Join us January 29 for our church’s annual meeting. It will be held right after church in the sanctuary. Besides elections of officers and budget, the most important item of business will be to recommit ourselves to Vision 2021 and the programs it has resulted in.
At Provo Community United Church of Christ we will observe Health and Human Service Sunday on January 22nd 2012 and we will be having a guest speaker from Alcoholics Anonymous. His story of recovery and addiction management will blend in with the Rev. Daniel Haas’ sermon on “personal demons”.
Health and Human Service Sunday is a special opportunity to create awareness of the health concerns of our communities and world, and to learn about the many and various health and human service ministries of the United Church of Christ. It is observed annually in the United Church of Christ and is an opportunity to talk about health in a holistic way.

Youth on the brink of adulthood experience many radical changes in their lives: Puberty is when parents start acting weird. Revisiting the faith you were brought up in or exploring your spirituality for the first time are great opportunities during this important period in life. Confirmation traditionally has been a youth’s approval and reaffirmation of the Baptism they received as an infant. Nowadays it can also a preparatory journey for Baptism itself. It is both challenging and fun. Our confirmation class had a great time at their opening retreat last weekend.
