TABLE TALK - Volume 641

CHRIST IS RISEN!  HE IS RISEN, INDEED!  ALLELUIA!  Happy Easter to those of orthodox backgrounds.

Thanks to all who worked at the Health Fair and Community service day at St. Luke’s.  Duane and Phyllis Keeler attended the Adult Christian Education event at Clifton Park and Glenville on Jesus Rocks! and contemporary Christian worship.

Thanks to Phyllis Keeler for leading worship while Pastor Jim served at Castleton and East Schodack last Sunday.

The 10^th anniversary CROP Walk was a great success!  112 walkers raised over $13,000 to fight hunger throughout the world and in our own communities.  Check out Christa Slater’s videoblog at  http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=2NbM3Llqw3w&eid=112
