THANKSFEEDING IS FAST APPROACHING
sign up today!

Mark your calendars for this special event at GEECC!
We celebrate Thanksgiving by gathering with family and friends around a feast. We feast but many children around the world lack the food basics to sustain and develop their bodies. We are inviting you to include a few hours in your Thanksgiving celebration to provide meals to children in need.
We are partnering with Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) to pack food
over four two-hour sessions

on November 20 and 21.
We are calling this event ThanksFEEDing. 

Sign-ups are open for our GE Cov church family!

You can access sign-ups online by going on our GEECC website here: https://www.gecovenant.org/thanksfeeding-fmsc
and use the password: geecc
Reserve your preferred date and time early, and feel free to sign up on your own,
with friends, or as a family. However you come, you'll be glad you did!

GEECC JUSTICE BOOK CLUB
THURSDAYS
7:30 to 8:30 on Zoom

Join us! We welcome new members! This fall we are reading Pope Leo’s Encyclical on understanding humanity and artificial intelligence from a Biblical perspective of avoiding a “Tower of Babel” mentality and instead following the model of Nehemiah and his community building the wall of Jerusalem together.  One special quote: “Technology in and of itself is not a solution to humanity’s problems, just as it is not inherently evil. In practice, however, technology is never neutral, because it takes on the characteristics of those who devise, finance, regulate and use it.”

Contact Mary Crickmore or the church office if you’d like to participate.
