The food pantry cupboard is full so we are holding off collecting more items for the food pantry at this time. If you have items to contribute for the food pantry, please hold

onto them for now. We’ll let you know when there is room.

The Outreach Committee is seeking donations for Ranch Hope. Throughout March, we will be collecting toiletry items. Shampoo, body wash, toothpaste, toothbrushes,

deodorant, and paper towels. No razors.

We will be taking a special collection on March 16 to support the heating & AC project at the Covenant of Grace Church in Kentucky.

Kindness Matters - Treat someone to coffee or tea! Ask how you can pray for them and say a quick prayer right then with them.

There will be a covered dish luncheon this Sabbath, February 17. Please bring a dish and/or dessert to share.

Only 6 weeks until we celebrate Jesus’ resurrection on March 30! The Music & Worship committee is putting together a few skits. Children of all ages are welcome to

participate. See Lora for more information or to volunteer.

Committees are asked to advise the Clerk when you have selected a chairperson for this year so we can post a listing of all the officers and committees. Thank you!

The Marlboro Seventh Day Baptist Church will hold a special Business Meeting on Sunday, March 3 at 7pm. Items to be discussed during this business meeting will include:

1. Resolution to update the signers on the church bank accounts to reflect the change in clerk.

2. To consider the church's response to a recent letter from the Seventh Day Baptist General Council regarding the signing of an Indemnification Agreement. The General

Council has set a deadline of March 31, 2024 for acting on this request that was first made several years ago. A copy of the letter and the proposed agreement is posted in the Vestibule and fellowship hall. Additional copies may be requested by church members from Keith Dickinson, Church Moderator.

Committee.
