Mark your calendars and join us Saturday, November 23, for the Manakin Church Bazaar. This event will take place in Denny Hall from 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. We are currently looking for talented and crafty vendors, artisans, DIYers, and small business to participate. There is no charge for table or space, but we are asking that 10% of proceeds go to Manakin’s Outreach activities and project. If you are interested in learning more, contact the church office.
On August 11, Manakin will hold a Family Forum, during which we will welcome Halina Zimm, a Holocaust survivor. Born in Poland, Halina’s family made a risky decision to flee their home in 1939. She will share how Christians aided in her survival and how there is no place for hate in our hurting world. This is a unique forum that everyone should plan to attend. The forum will begin at 9:00 a.m. in Denny Hall.
Manakin and St. Luke’s will be moving through the season of Lent together with weekly programs that will explore the Bishop’s Five Initiatives and how they are applicable to our daily lives. Through our time together, we will gain a deeper understanding of these guiding principles to enrich our growth in community, worship, prayer and study.
Each Wednesday, we’ll hold a potluck dinner at 5:30 p.m. followed by a program that begins at 6:15 p.m. The schedule and locations are as follows:
