A Word from Pastor DJ

I have a couple of items to highlight:

1st: For those who haven’t voted yet, there are two websites that are non-partisan and provides a sample ballot for your area. They are www.ballotpedia.org and www.lwv.org.

2nd: October is fire prevention month. This Sunday, October 25, Neil Saunderson, a firefighter, Fire Police Lieutenant, and son of Carol Saunderson, possibly will be at the 8AM service and definitely at the 10:15AM service representing Upper Salford Volunteer Fire Company (USVFC). This is the fire company who services our area. During announcements Neil will briefly speak about fire prevention and the services of USVFC. After each service, there will be a person holding a fireperson’s boot if you would like to give a donation of support. This is an opportunity to say “thanks” to our fire department for always being available to serve our community.

3rd: November 1st this year is All Saints’ Day and a Sunday! We do not need to transfer All Saints’ to Sunday this year. On Sunday, October 25th, the Book of Remembrance will be on a podium in the back to enter the names of your loved ones who have passed since November 1, 2025. This book continues to carry the names of those entered in past years. On All Saints’ Day, it will be placed on the altar and the names included as a group in the prayers of the people.

In addition, the 9AM Forum will be educational for all ages as we specifically remember a few of the Church’s saints.

Blessings, DJ+
