PASTOR’S PONDERINGS….
Let the eating begin!! Happy Halloween!!
Halloween: a time of dressing up as favorite characters from a princess to a fire fighter & everything
in between. All Saints Day is this weekend as
well. A time of remembering those who have died
this year.
Rev. Laura Norris-Buisch

SERVICE of REMEMBRANCE
and CANDLELIGHTING
6:00PM
Sunday, Nov. 2nd
This fall has been one of funerals & celebrations
of time together at church with the youth, children,
playing euchre, coffee time & simply being with
folk at hospitals. Life has always been seasons of
joy & seasons of grief all mixed up together.
Forrest Gump said “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you will get” Unless
you stick your finger in the bottom of the chocolate
first. Life is not easy!! Many of us always struggle
to make sense of what has happened. Most times
there are no answers.
I know one thing for sure: God is always with us;
nothing can separate us from God’s love in Jesus
Christ.
Peace,
Laura
Romans 12:9
Let love be genuine; hate what is evil,
hold fast to what is good.
Come for an evening of reflection
& light a candle
for your loved one.

RIVERSIDE’S FINANCES AT A GLANCE
Lectionary Scripture Readings … November
The church’s financial state is not easy to evaluate, because
Income and Expense are so variable. Heating bills rise in the
winter, Mission donations are usually made at the end of the
year, and Properties costs can appear unexpectedly. The General Offering is probably the most dependable measure of the
Church’s financial health.

Presbyterian History
Christ the King; Sunday, Nov. 23rd
At the conclusion of the Christian year, the church
gives thanks and praise for sovereignty of Christ,
who is Lord of all creation and is coming again in
glory to reign (see Revelation 1:4-8).
This festival was established in 1925 by decree of Pope Pius XI. Originally it took place on the last Sunday in October, just prior to All Saints’
Day. Now it is celebrated on the last Sunday of the Christian year, a
week before the season of Advent begins.
The festival of Christ the King (or Reign of Christ) ends our marking of
Ordinary Time after the Day of Pentecost, and moves us to the threshold of Advent, the season of hope for Christ’s coming again at the end
of time.
The day centers on the crucified and risen Christ, whom God exalted to
rule over the whole universe. The celebration of the lordship of Christ
thus looks back to Ascension, Easter, and Transfiguration, and points
ahead to the appearing in glory of the King of kings and Lord of lords.
Christ reigns supreme. Christ’s truth judges falsehood. As the Alpha
and Omega, the beginning and the end, Christ is the center of the universe, the ruler of all history, the judge of all people. In Christ all things
began, and in Christ all things will be fulfilled. In the end, Christ will
triumph over the forces of evil.

White Elephant Table
The early Christians placed evergreens in their
windows to indicate that Christ had entered the
home. Holly and ivy, along with pine, and fir are
called evergreens because they never change color.
They are ever-green, ever-alive, even in the midst of
winter. They symbolize the unchanging nature of
our God, and they remind us of the everlasting life
that is ours through Christ Jesus.

RIVERSIDE YOUTH NEWSLETTER
NOVEMBER-DECEMBER 2014
Welcome to Our Youth Newsletter, an informational guide for parents, caregivers and children
of all ages! Contact Heather Stackpole with any information you would like to have added to
each edition! [email protected]
NURSERY NEWS
Infants to age three are welcome in the Nursery at the 11am services on Sundays. We are
always in need of adults to take a turns in the Nursery. See Reverend Laura! We need You!
SUNDAY SCHOOL NEWS
SPCA new hours of operation: Monday, Wednesday & Thursday 12pm - 8pm, Friday:
10:30am - 5pm, Saturday: 11am - 5:pm, Tuesday & Sunday: Closed. This means, children will
not be able to deliver donations on Sundays after church! We are re-thinking the Mission. More
updates to come!
Christmas Pageant is around the corner!
This year we are looking for an adult to play a part in our Christmas Pageant! This individual
plays the part of Mary “in her older years” telling children about the birth of her son, Jesus.
Mary sits in a chair during the entire play (no worries about standing)! What a wonderful
memory for one of our Moms to be part of the pageant alongside their child, or one of our ladies
from the congregation to be a part of this exciting time with our children. Our pageant will be on
Sunday, December 14th at 11am. Please express your interest to Heather Stackpole no later than
November 15th!
Offering envelopes have been given to the Sunday school children!
Our vision is to teach the children about weekly offerings and praising God for his works. The
goal is not to have the children ask for money to fill their envelopes, but rather…find a penny on
the street, think of God and pick it up to share. Or…did an extra for Mom or Dad , share a part
of allowance and give to God. We will be taking turns passing the plate and also learn the offertory song;
Praise, God from whom all blessing flow (James: 1:17)
Praise, Him all creatures, here below (Psalm 145:21)
Praise Him above, ye heav’nly host (Rev 5: 11-14)
Praise Father Son and Holly Ghost (Mathew 28:19)
