THE ANGEL TREE is set up outside the sanctuary as a fundraiser to provide Emergency Life Packs through Presbyterian Disaster Assistance to support churches in border regions caring for refugees and asylum seekers. Please place an angel on the tree to signify a donation made. We are hoping to fund 5 packs for this missions initiative.
POINSETTIAS & LUMINARIES – Fill out the form and place it in the offering plate along with $15 each. Donations and forms may also be submitted online at www.2ndpc.org/give. Each luminary kit includes 10 flame-resistant bags and tea lights. White poinsettias can be dedicated in honor or memory of someone.

WORSHIP SAFETY GUIDELINES– Due to the high rate of COVID-19 community transmission, the CDC continues to recommend indoor masking in public settings for everyone. While a large portion of our congregation is vaccinated, there is a significant number of children who have not yet had the opportunity to be vaccinated, which affects the health and safety of the vulnerable and immunocompromised among us. Please wear a face mask in church, even if you are fully vaccinated.
