WE ARE 50 YEARS "BOLD!"
During this anniversary year, Starview is highlighting some special moments and periods in it's history. On May 18th, during our regular Sunday morning worship service (9 AM) our Christian Education ministries will be highlighted. Then, on June 8, we will celebrate the "family" of Starview and remember that Jesus said, "No one can have greater love than to lay down his life for his friends," by recognizing our local police personnel.

COME AND CELEBRATE PENTECOST ON
MAY 11, 2008 at 9 AM
On this special holy day, when we celebrate the church's birthday or the day when the Holy Spirit gave birth to the Christian Church, 6 (six) of our youth will participate in the rite of confirmation. In the United Church of Christ, a person is incorporated into the body of Christ, the universal church, through the sacrament of baptism and in the UCC this most often happens when a person is an infant or a young child. As a person who was baptized early in their life approaches adolescence, the local church offers that person the opportunity to give public assent to the baptismal promises made on their behalf. The rite of confirmation celebrates this occasion of affirmation of baptism in the life of the individual and of the local church.
Vesper Services
It's that time of year again. Wednesday, May 21st at 6:30 PM we will have our first vesper serive of the summer. We will be meeting under the large shade tree behind the church. This year we will focus on God's creation and issues of creativity. Our time will be limited to no more than 45 minutes, with it again being interactive and engaging. Come, dressed comfortably and don't forget to bring a lawn chair or a blanket to sit on.
Prayer Ministry
If you or someone you know is in need of dedicated daily prayer please call the church office with a name and need (if you feel the "need" is necessary information). Starview UCC has a group of lay ministers who have committed themselves to confidentiality and the practice of daily dedicated prayer on behalf of the church and those folks requesting this ministry.
No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey,
YOU ARE WELCOME HERE!
