October 3, 1998

Jericho Congregational Church
Jericho Center, Vermont
Pastor: Rev. Peter Anderson

   

    

Pastor Peter Anderson makes people feel at home.

    

Gordon and Debbie Hamm keep the hot food coming.

    

Mark and Ben took the messiest job--scraping plates.  It is amazing how they can find fun in any task!

    

Mrs. Rivers and Jessica prepare the dessert pies.

    

Bob and Cliff made sure there were clean plates and utensils for every sitting. The kitchen ran like a railroad all evening. Cliff knew he would have his hands in the dishpan the whole time, so he put his nametag on the back of his shirt. That way, guests would know who he was.

    

Meanwhile, out in the church basement, yet another group is being served.  As you can see, the women keep busy making sure that the guests' needs are met, while...

    

...the men stand around keeping out of trouble!

Rhonda led the choir in an Isaac Watts shapenote hymn before each sitting.   The choir members doubled as servers.  This is a first for Chicken Pie Supper, and we expect to do it again next year, as the music was well received.

Immensity

Within thy circling pow'r I stand; On ev'ry side I find thy hand;
Awake, asleep, at home, abroad, I am surrounded still with God.

O may these thoughts possess my breast, where e'er I rove, where e'er I rest;
Nor let my weaker passions dare consent to sin, for God is there.

 Make sure you get your tickets early next year, as they sell out 2 weeks before the event. Otherwise, you may be left watching the Chicken Pie Supper through the window.

Our Privilege

"...Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
Matthew 5: 16
