DISCIPLE BIBLE STUDY
Starting November 4th at 6:30 P.M.
Grace United Methodist Church, Library
Disciple I: Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study is a foundational 34-week group Bible study program designed to develop Christian leaders by providing a comprehensive overview of the entire Old and New Testaments.
Core Purpose: The study emphasizes the wholeness of the Bible as a revelation of God, giving equal time to both the Old and New Testaments from Creation to the New Jerusalem.
Methodology: It combines individual daily scripture reading, scholarly insights, and small-group discussions.
Note: Study manual provided.
Do you like Chris Tomlin, Casting Crowns, Brooke Ligertwood, Michael W. Smith, Brandon Lake, Elevation Worship? Do you listen to The Message on SiriusXM? Do you like Contemporary Christian Music but unable to hear enough of it?
Come join us here at Grace United Methodist Church in Centre Hall on the 3rd Sunday (usually) of every month. Our service has the same components as our Traditional Service, with only the
music changing.
Our band Glorified has been providing the music for 20 years. You’ll find the service to be uplifting, and you might walk away humming a song or two.
Occasionally we do change what Sunday is contemporary, so please call the office a couple weeks in advance to confirm. “Perhaps creation longs to have the words to sing, but this joy is
mine. With a thousand hallelujahs, we magnify your name.” as written by Scott and Brooke Ligertwood and Phil Wickham for the song “A Thousand Hallelujahs.” Preview Glorified via the video below...

The Centre Hall/Potter Township Food Pantry
The Centre Hall/Potter Township Food Pantry was chartered by the churches in Centre Hall and operates out of the basement of Grace United Methodist Church. The recently expanded geographic area includes all of Penns Valley therefore the name changed to Centre Hall/Penns Valley Food Pantry.
The expanded geographic area nearly doubled the number of households served from 55 to 101 as of November. The Food Pantry provides monthly food assistance for low-income families.
The Food Pantry operates with canned and dry food donated by local churches, businesses, private individuals, and civic groups as well as state and federal government surplus. Monetary donations are used to purchase additional food and nonfood products.
Please mark your donations, Food Pantry or November monthly mission.
REMINDER—For the month of August the Food Panty Crew
will meet on the second Tuesday (8/11) instead of the regular
third Tuesday of the month.
Bring the following and drop into our Pantry Donations Box:
November—Sandwich bags
December—Dish detergent
Food bank regularly distributes the 3rd Tuesday of the month.

We have revamped our “Category of the Month” Campaign to be more specific. We are asking for these specific donations OR monetary donations so that we can purchase items in bulk at a lower cost. Please make sure your checks/envelopes specify “OCC Donation” before placing in the offering plate or mailing to the church. We will continue to accept other items but are specifically highlighting these needs.
NOTE: All donations accepted regardless of the monthly category. Donation Box is located inside the back entrance door (bottom of steps). Reminder – NO used items, liquids or soap, food/seeds, weapons or scary/war related items.
NOVEMBER REQUEST: Monetary donations for shipping
DECEMBER REQUEST: Pray for the volunteers who process
the boxes, deliver the boxes, the children receiving the boxes, the
volunteers who teach the Gospel lessons and the families who
come to know Jesus!
ALWAYS:
• Empty Shoeboxes (It costs of $157 to order 200 preprinted OCC shoeboxes!)
• Old T-shirts – to be transformed into jump ropes! (stained, faded, small holes – all okay!)
