How to Live by the Holy Spirit

Sermon by Pastor Allan Collister on Romans 8:1-11.

Life After College

College students, stick around after church this week to hear from some folks in the church about what life is like after college, and ask them whatever questions you want about it.  What’s it like looking for a job, a new church, or managing your finances, relationships, and walk with God out in the “real world”?

Join us for some pizza after the service to find out!

Bill pay

Times change, and many of us don’t use checks (or even cash) very much any more.  But the offering Sunday morning is what it has always been – a cash transaction, somewhat modified (a century or so ago) to include checks, too.
We’d like to encourage you to consider giving to the work of New Church by using the same methods you use to pay your bills which probably means on-line.  It will actually be safer: two years ago, the morning offering was stolen out of the office.  Giving on-line would reduce that risk.  But mainly, it would be easier for you, too.
If you decide to do this, make the payment to New Church – Berkeley, and have the bank send it to the church at 2606 Dwight Way, Berkeley 94704.  In the meantime, we’ll keep passing the offering bags, symbolizing the importance of giving as part of our worship.  But the heart is the thing, not the external details.  Thanks for thinking about this, and thanks for your part in making our work possible.
“Let each of you set aside a sum of money in keeping with his/her income, so that when I come, no collections will have to be taken.”  I Corinthians 16:3
