Give to "Supper" Bowl Sunday
Are you ready for the Super Bowl? While you're preparing chip and dip for the big game, remember our brothers and sisters in need of food everyday. The Christian Discipleship Council in partnership with the Street Ministry invite you to participate in Metropolitans own "Supper" Bowl. Starting Sunday, January 24th, up to Super Bowl Sunday, bring your canned goods and non-parishable food items to church. A collection area will be set up in the front vestibule during both services. Proceeds will benefit the Captial Area Food Bank. Monteary donations are also accepted.

BE THE MATCH
God has given to Metropolitan a unique assignment. As our pastor defined from the pulpit last Sunday, one who is close to the Metropolitan family, Jennifer Jones Austin, is in need of a bone marrow transplant. Jennifer has Leukemia and has little chance for survival unless she can receive a bone marrow transplant. We have been asked to search our ranks to find whether one person is a suitable match to donate bone marrow to help save Jennifer’s life. On Sunday, January 31st, the Garment’s Hem ministry is sponsoring a campaign to solicit bone marrow donors. Accept the call to service for Sister Jennifer.
