Thank you very much for your help in completing these surveys.  This is an essential step forward toward creating the mission and ministry of Shiloh United Church of Christ and the call to the next settled minister.
Special recognition for retiring Cherub Choir Directors. Thank you to Sue and Sandy for 38 years of music!

                                STEWARDSHIP CHALLENGE 2018
Many of our previous Stewardship Challenges involved giving goods and/or money to missions and organizations as part of a community outreach, but sometimes it is necessary to help our own church. This year the challenge will be to help our church with a critical need-a new boiler and an overhaul of the air conditioning system. This project has been estimated to cost us around $65,000. The challenge for 2018 will be for the congregation to give $5000 towards this cost. The money should be put in the regular offering envelope but be marked on the other line as Stewardship Challenge. Remember the more we can raise, the quicker we can repay the endowment fund. The Stewardship Committee is praying for your support of this challenge which will begin on August 5 and end on Stewardship Sunday, October 14. Thank you very much!

Beginning Sunday August 5 and 12,  your choir members will be collecting the money for the concert "Mercy Me", gospel singers, on Tuesday September 11, at the York Fair. If you did not sign up we can still get tickets. Just sign the
sign- up sheet in  the Gallery by August 5. The tickets are $25 each cash or check accepted. Make checks out to Shiloh UCC and mark for choir concert. Thank you for your support!

The WOMAN’S  SUPPORT  AND  SOCIAL  GROUP, WSSG, will meet for lunch at the Manchester Café at 12 noon on Friday, August 17.  If you plan to attend, please call Carolyn Poff at 717-292-2893.
PRAYER SHAWLS NEEDED
The Sewing Circle keeps a supply of Prayer Shawls to give as needed, and we can use some help making them.  If you would like to knit or crochet a Prayer Shawl for this ministry, please contact Karen Bupp at 717-292-2821 for a pattern.

SHILOH UCC - WIFI
Shiloh UCC now offers Wi-Fi access to its members and guests.   Our members and guests can access the internet to read the Bible passages referenced during our Sunday Worship.  Our ministers and staff can use the wealth of resources available on the internet to educate our parishioners.  Community groups utilizing our Church can use our internet to aid its members. We can use social media to tell others about our church activities or to share parts of the service that were especially meaningful to them.  Of course, we have taken every effort to keep our internet network secure.  The guest network is separate and sheltered from the secure network in the Church office.  Guests are also asked to agree to the terms of the network prior to joining.  Next time you are in our church, log on to ‘ShilohUCC’ and access our Wi-Fi.
