YOUR HELP IS NEEDED! - The family of Jake Novak, a young man recently diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and for whom we’ve been praying, has a driveway in such deplorable condition that an ambulance would be unable to gain access to the house; because of Jake’s condition, it is paramount that it be repaired.  Lori Fritz is asking for donations to help this family; call her at 412-225-6158 for information on how to donate. Thank you.

GREETING CARD MINISTRY - This new ministry makes its debut on Thursday, December 2, at 10:00 a.m., in the home of Bonnie Craig (415 Cedar Dr., Elizabeth). Come join in the fun and fellowship as we create greeting cards from scratch as well as from cards that we’d like to recycle; bring them with you to the craft room in Bonnie’s house, where the necessary supplies are located. The best part of this ministry is that we will be praying for those who will be receiving them.

Call Bonnie with any questions (412-400-9284).

KIDS'  CORNER - Kids of all ages are always welcome in our worship services, but the Kids' Corner  is an area downstairs in the Fellowship Hall that is set up for kids who may find the worship service a bit too long, or otherwise need a break. There are books, toys, and puzzles available, and the service is simulcast on the big screen TV nearby, so parents won't miss out. Feel free to take advantage of this area at any time!

RECHARGE WITH US! - RECHARGE is a ministry of Round Hill Church, open to the whole community. On Wednesday evenings, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm, we gather to share in a brief time of praise and worship, a light meal, and fellowship around the table. Following the meal there is time for fellowship to continue and for meeting with various groups, including choir practice, Bible studies, and more. The activities after the meal will change from time to time to meet the interests and needs of those attending.

SAVE YOUR CALENDARS - Please bring any extra 2022 calendars you may have to Marilyn Christenson to give to the Food Pantry.

FOOD PANTRY DONATIONS - The Food Pantry is requesting donations of baking supplies for the month of December. Please place these items either in the basket in the vestibule or bring them over to the C.E. Building and place them in front of the Food Pantry door. Thank you for helping those in need!

OFFERING ENVELOPES- When you have about one month's worth of envelopes left at home, please fill out the BRIGHT PINK form found on the table in the narthex to order more. These forms are also for those of you who would like to start using offering envelopes but have never received any. All forms can be then placed in the collection basket. Thank you!

"PER MEMBER ASKING "Our denomination and presbytery are each currently funded by "per member asking," an amount per active member that each church is asked to contribute. This year, Round Hill is contributing $23 per member to the EPC and $14.50 per member to the Presbytery of the Alleghenies. This information is provided for those members who would like to contribute the per member asking amount in addition to their regular giving by marking "PMA" or "per capita" on a gift placed in the offering.

ONLINE GIVING NOW AVAILABLE- If you would like to donate online, go to  the "Donations" page and follow the instructions; you can use credit/debit cards or Paypal. For donations less than $25, please use cash or check since there is a very small transaction fee the church has to pay and your gift will be more beneficial.
