PEVA Votes to Approve Union of Second and Denbigh Presbyterian Churches

The Presbytery of Eastern Virginia (PEVA) voted on October 22 to approve the Plan of Union for DPC and SPC. The Presbytery also appointed an Administrative Commission to acton behalf of the Presbytery in matters regarding the Plan of Union, the unification of Denbigh

and Second Presbyterian Churches, and the dissolution of Second Presbyterian Church. TheAdministrative Commission is composed of the Reverend Michael Condrey (chair), the Rever-end Helen Byrd, and ruling elders John McLeod (Denbigh), Charlene Diggs (Yorkminster) andWilliam Morrison (Second Newport News).

Celebration of the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper 

Please join us in celebrating the Lord’s Supper on Sunday, November 3 which is

Commitment Sunday.  Please prayerfully prepare for the celebration of the Lord’s Supper.

CHURCH BUDGET 

Actual Year to Date September, 2013

Total Income $ 203,975.00

Total Expenses $ 224,377.62

Net Difference $ (20,402.62)

As with most churches, the summer months result in lower attendance and lower numbers of  pledges contributed. While DPC is on solid ground financially, our cash flow did not meet our expenses. As we approach the close of September (our third financial quarter), we would

ask that any consideration you can give to bringing pledges current would be greatly ap-

preciated. We have been able to maintain our mission programs and projects but could usesome “catch up time”! The expenses through August (eight months) were $201,587. Our in-come during the same time frame was $180,966, leaving us with an operating deficit of $20,621. Our reserve funds are designated for emergency repairs (think air conditioning!) and

we hope not to utilize the account for continuing the operating funds. Again, if you feel so led,we ask your assistance in keeping our pledges current. 

Building Fund for Major Improvements to the Pre-K Wing

With the help of $22,392.51 from savings we have paid for the foundation repair and gutter-ing. We have also replaced the lighting and updated outdated wiring in the Pre-K wing. Asyou are able and feel led, please make contributions to the Building Fund. Contributions tothe Building Fund will help “repay” our savings account. 

Joint Worship Services with Second Presbyterian

We will be worshiping with our brothers and sisters from Second Presbyterian over the

coming months on the following Sundays. Please make special note of the location and time of the services.

Sunday, November 10, 10:30 a.m. at DENBIGH PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

Sunday, December 1, 11 a.m. at SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

The Small Groups Team is moving forward on implementing Small Groups for thefall. With the union with Second Presbyterian Church as well as the number of newmembers and those who have been with the church for some time, we believeSmall Groups will help us get to know one another on a more spiritual and

 personal level.Small Groups: The purpose of a small group is to make disciples. Before we cangrow as disciples, we must be a healthy, loving community. The apostle Paul usedthe term koinonia (Greek for community) 13 times. Each time he spoke of a Chris-tian relationship that is ours through the Holy Spirit, imitating Christ by producingthe kind of love that acts for the good of others. It creates bonds that cannot be de-stroyed. Small Groups will be starting at Denbigh Presbyterian Church this

fall and are a great way to make friends, grow as disciples and experience

koinonia. Groups will meet on a regular basis for Bible study, fellowship and prayer. Want in-depth study? Desire a day or night group? Available on a specificday or night? Prefer a group of men, women, or couples? Need childcare? Inter-ested in a topical Bible study? Sign-up forms are on the visitor table in the

narthex.

COTTAGE STYLE GATHERINGS BETWEEN

Help Build a Stronger Denbigh

For years Denbigh Presbyterian has had a member serving on the Denbigh Community ActionTeam. That organization no longer meets but is supportive of the work and goals of the PIER Intervention Committee in Newport News. The PIER Intervention Committee is committed toorganizing and utilizing resources for supporting the transition of youth and young adults fromgang involvement to law-abiding lifestyles. PIER stands for Prevention, Intervention,

Enforcement, and Re-entry, the four committees within the Mayor's Task Force. The Inter-vention Committee is sponsoring training in the Asset-Based Community Development

approach on November 9. Asset-Based Community Development is a large and growingmovement that considers local assets as the primary building blocks of sustainable communitydevelopment. Building on the skills of local residents, the power of local associations, and thesupportive functions of local institutions, asset-based community development draws upon ex-isting community strengths to build stronger, more sustainable communities for the future.(Asset Based Community Development Institute) Please contact Gerry Ellis if you are

interested in attending the November 9, 2013 workshop.

Provide the simple gift of a shoebox filled with smallgifts and change lives. “Every shoebox gift is an opportunityto touch a child’s heart and share the love of Jesus Christ.”

Look for the Samaritan’s Purse shoebox brochures, which provide suggested gift ideas, in the narthex. You can fill your own shoebox, use one of the boxes provided in the narthex or use one of the Samaritan’s Purse Shoeboxes located on thekitchen counter. Please include $7.00 in your box to help withshipping costs. The deadline to turn in shoeboxes is Sunday,

 November 10. We will dedicate the boxes November 10during the worship service. If you have any questions please

Denbigh Presbyterian

Pre-Kindergarten October is such a fun month here at DPPK. Newport News Fire

Department Station #9 stopped by with their engine. The firefighterscame into our classrooms to demonstrate “Stop, Drop, and Roll” and “StayLow and Go.” They taught about fire safety and showed off all of theirgear.

The very next week brought a visit from Officer Livingston, who is aCommunity Resource Officer with the Newport News Police Department.Officer Livingston talked about the importance of wearing our helmetswhile bike riding, and gave a demonstration of his special vehicle called aSegway! The children also were able to view his police department

vehicle. They loved seeing the flashing lights and hearing the loud siren.Officer Livingston told them that police officers are here to help them, andhe spoke to them about how to be safe on Halloween night while trick-or-treating.

Speaking of Halloween, we will have our annual Halloween costumeparades on October 30 and 31 right after carpool. Please stop by to watchus if you have the time. If the weather cooperates we will be outside inthe parking lot, but if it is raining we will parade around the sanctuary. Ihope you can join us!

Maggie Vincelette

DPPK Director
