Here’s a bit more about our recycling program:

RECYCLE YOUR PAPER—AND YOUR MAGAZINES!

WHAT GOES IN THE BIN?
It may surprise you what does and does not go in the recycling bin.
Here’s a quick list.

YES – put me in the bin!

The Hope for Haiti concert is an evening of music and community to raise funds to support our Haitian neighbors who are recovering from the tragic and devastating January 2010 earthquakes.

Popular recording artists Brian Sirchio and Karen Hylton will perform.

We will be selling tickets after worship at Ivy Chapel on July 4.

This benefit concert is through Global Ministries of the Christian Church (DOC) & The United Church of Christ.

Please contact us if you have questions about the concert or about Hope for Haiti.

Each year, a portion of the offering and other money donated to Ivy Chapel goes to support “Our Church’s Wider Mission.” This outreach by the United Church of Christ helps those in need across the globe. The following video, which was shown during worship at Ivy Chapel on Feb. 21, further explains the concept of OCWM. The video was shown in support of a special offering held on Feb. 28 to support OCWM.

If you’d like more information about OCWM, or if you would like to donate to the fundraising drive, please join us in worship on Feb. 28, e-mail us, or call 1-314-434-4991

On Feb. 21, Ivy Chapel hosted its second Spaghetti Dinner fundraiser. We served a large crowd, which included both members of the congregation and residents of the wider community. The great turnout made it one of Ivy’s most successful fundraisers ever, bringing in $2798.80. The money will be used to further Ivy’s mission, supporting our outreach efforts.  Many volunteers from the church worked to make the fundraiser of a success, including donating pasta, baking desserts and volunteering elbow grease. Thank you to all who pitched in – and thank you to members of the community for your generosity.
