Connecting Link            January 2021

When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you. I
praise God for what he has promised. I trust in God,
so why should I be afraid?                Psalm 56: 3-4
2020 was a year of fear: the pandemic, turmoil in many of our cities, turmoil
in our government, and ‘learning a new way’ to do so many things. From
meetings, to dr. appointments, to worship, and we did it!

Fear is a human response, and has to be counteracted with trust. Where
did you go for trust? Most of us went to our Lord. He will never fail us.
Amen and Amen.

But 2021 is a new year; hopefully we can use what we learned during our
quiet time in 2020 to continue to be the feet and the hands of our Blessed
Lord. So let’s get our vaccinations so that we can gather, and continue to
strengthen each other.

CT will be meeting February 13, 2021, the whole CT, at Martins Ferry First,
to complete things for the Spring Gathering, work on the budget, and
prepare a slate of Leader to vote on at the Spring Gathering, April 17, 2021
at Wintersville Two Ridges, (bring your mask, social distancing will be
maintained).

Remember that Connecting Link you received last October in the large
envelope? If you have not done so already, please get it out, see if you
sent your pledge form to Judy Miller, if you have not met in person, please
call you leaders and fill out this form and mail to Judy. Also in there was
your History form in triplicate, this needs filled out now for the year 2020,
one copy mailed to Mary McElroy, one to ARCHIVIST: JOHN BULOW CAMPBELL
LIBRARY, COLUMBIA THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, PO BOX 520, DECATUR, GA 3OO31, and the third
one you keep for your records.

The other job that needs completed at this time is your list of Leaders
needed for the 2021-2022 UOVPW Directory, this sheet is included with
this mailing, (many are keeping the same people for another year) but we
were not able to print last year, so we really need to get this up to date. Fill
out and mail to Mary McElroy, this contact information is essential to
keeping Presbyterian Women alive.

And finally PW Synod of the Trinity has provided a prayer warrior
calendar for us to use, see it included, and use to unite us all.
