Monday Night Bible Study on Zoom and in the coffee house
​
Pastor Emily looks forward to meeting with you on Zoom and in the Coffee House with an adult catechism study of the Lord’s Prayer, Ten Commandments, and the Apostles’ Creed. You don't need any study materials, unless, of course, you would like to bring your Bible! The login codes are the same every week, but just contact Pastor Emily if you need help. Invite your friends, family and neighbors!
Mt. Hermon's Little Free Pantry
​
We have a FREE Pantry in our parking lot. If you or someone you know is in need of food, please do not hesitate to stop by and have a look. Take what you need, give what you can. Donations can be left at the pantry itself or the church office during staffed hours.

Feeding the Five Thousand ... Matthew 14:13-21 (NRSV): 13 Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place by himself. But when the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the towns. 14 When he went ashore, he saw a great crowd; and he had compassion for them and cured their sick. 15 When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a deserted place, and the hour is now late; send the crowds away so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.” 16 Jesus said to them, “They need not go away; you give them something to eat.” 17 They replied, “We have nothing here but five loaves and two fish.” 18 And he said, “Bring them here to me.” 19 Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. 20 And all ate and were filled; and they took up what was left over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. 21 And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children."
