e-news from MCCLV

Soup-er Sunday Details

On Sunday, February 12, come to MCCLV's worship service with cans of soup. Your contributions will help local Lehigh Valley families in need: all proceeds will be donated to the Allentown School District’s Mobile Food Pantry. Please purchase hearty soups that have an easy to open “pop top.” Let's make February 12 a Soup-er Sunday! 
Wonderful Worship

Gather for wonderful worship at MCCLV on Sunday, February 5 at 11:30am. Hear sacred instruction from Matthew 7:6 "do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under foot" and be inspired by God's wisdom. 
Join in Helping Neighbors

Serve dinner with MCCLV'ers (see photo above) at the Bethlehem Emergency Shelter on Friday, February 17 anytime between 4:00pm and 9:00pm at 75 E. Market Street in Bethlehem. Bethlehem Emergency Sheltering is a faith-based partnership that provides a network of care and hospitality for the homeless in the Lehigh Valley community. Overnight sheltering is provided during the coldest months of the year (November to April). To help out, contact MCCLV's Minister for Outreach & Justice, Bam Noriega, at BamNoriega@mcclv.info
Join the Discussion

MCCLV's weekly Adult Spiritual Formation Sermon Discussion meets this coming Thursday, February 2 @ 6pm ET via Zoom Meeting ID 851 1250 3116. Enjoy an inspiring conversation about turning "Why Me, God?" into "Why Not Me?" Facilitated by MCCLV Member Karl Steiner, all are always warmly welcome.
Sacred Study

MCCLV's topical Bible Study returns on Tuesday, Feburary 7. Gather each Tuesday as a different issue is explored. Facilitated by Rev. Goudy, the classes are free and open to the public. Join at 6pm (online via Zoom ID 876 0624 8826) or at 7pm in-person in the church's library. 
Space Wanted

Did you know that MCCLV is in need of space for its next church home? The church needs your help to secure a new location (rental, purchase or rent-to-own). 3,000 square feet would be nice and low-cost space would be even nicer. Do you have a co-worker whose church might be interested in sharing space? Do you have a friend or family member who owns/rents an office building and they have space available on Sundays? Do you have a neighbor who keeps up with the local commercial real estate market? If you have any information that would help MCCLV with its property search, contact the MCCLV Pastor at RevBethGoudy@mcclv.info or 484-202-0149. Thank you for your assistance, it is much appreciated.
