SUMMARY:Bearing Witness: Nell & Poll Documents at Heinz History Center 
DESCRIPTION:In June\, our congregation learned about the lives of Nell\, Poll\, Sam\, Savara\, Jack\, Sukey\, Isaac\, Frank\, Het\, and Maria—the family enslaved and sold by two of our founders. \nThe Reparations Ministry Team and Facing Systemic Racism Committee invite you to the Heinz History Center Detre Library and Archives on Saturday & Monday\, September 6 & 8\, 10 am–12 pm\, to view the primary sources we relied on for our research: the bills of sale for Nell and Poll\, the registry of births of babies to enslaved mothers\, and other documents that gave us insight into the lives of the family. We will provide a brief recap of the information from our program in June\, and an archivist will be on hand to answer questions about the materials\, which will be available for you to view in person. Viewing the documents can be a powerful experience and is a chance to bear witness as we begin to reckon with our church’s tie to enslavement. \nAfterward\, attendees are encouraged to visit the “From Slavery to Freedom” exhibit\, which provides information relevant to enslavement\, abolition\, and the civil rights movement in Pittsburgh. \nAttendance is free\, but space is limited. Call or text Hollen Barmer at 412.512.0786 with any questions. \nSign up online

SUMMARY:Visitor Sunday
DESCRIPTION:What brings you to church on Sunday? It may be for divine inspiration after a challenging week\, to find peace in our sacred space\, or to connect with friends\, new and old\, within our congregation. We hope that all these reasons—and more—pull you in for worship and reflection. \nOn Sunday\, September 14\, we will celebrate Visitor Sunday. We encourage you to invite someone—a newcomer to Pittsburgh seeking community\, a family member\, a friend\, or a neighbor\, someone who may appreciate experiencing a moment of God’s grace in our Cathedral of Hope. If you attend online\, welcome a friend or relative to participate alongside you. \nAs part of Visitor Sunday\, we will have joyful music\, and our Membership and Outreach Committee will sponsor a Social Hour after the 11 am service. Visitors are encouraged to stop by our visitor table for a gift bag after either the Journey service or the Sanctuary service. A church tour will be available after the 11 am service as well.

SUMMARY:ELPC Connections Potluck Lunch
DESCRIPTION:“What if we heard the voice of God saying ‘How can you be lost when I am right here?’” \nWith those words from Pastor Michael’s sermon on September 14 ringing in our hurting hearts\, we invite you to celebrate our Connections Ministry’s 2025–2026 season kick-off with an ELPC Connections Potluck Lunch following Sanctuary worship on Sunday\, October 19\, in the Good Samaritan Room! \nConnections events build bonds\, forge friendships\, and create community that heals the disconnected\, the fearful and the lost—including us—through monthly\, small-group activities. \nJesus as shepherd rejoices when the lost—an unseen\, unknown\, or uncertain person—is found. Connections—a home meal\, a concert\, a hike\, etc.—celebrates when we beloved folks find each other. \nJesus welcomed those accepted and rejected by society and so do we. That’s why we added an intentional LGBTQIA+ affinity group to affirm Pastor Michael’s words that “divine love always seeks us out.” \nEven if you’ve yet to register for a Connections group\, we’d love to get to know you at the ELPC Connections Potluck Lunch. For planning purposes\, please sign up online. \n  \nSign Up \n  \nChrist always had room at his table; so do we at ELPC!

SUMMARY:Contemplative Retreat: Giving Our Deaths Away
DESCRIPTION:From Friday–Sunday\, October 31–November 2\, join us for a Spiritual Life retreat on Halloween\, All Saints Day\, and the Day of the Dead at the Villa Maria Education and Spirituality Center in Pulaski\, Pennsylvania. Amid our normal retreat rhythms of solitude and community\, silence and conversation\, stillness and activity\, we will explore our mortality\, our hopes and fears surrounding death\, and what our tradition(s) have to say about death and eternal communion we have with saints and ancestors. \nAccording to the Spanish mystic John of the Cross\, we have three essential struggles in life: 1) To get our lives together\, 2) To give our lives away\, and 3) To give our deaths away. \nWhat is asked of us in the first two struggles is more obvious and captured in the first half of life. But what does it mean to give our deaths away in the later parts of our life? How we approach death and dying leaves a legacy\, a particular spirit\, which either nurtures or haunts those left behind. If we die at peace with ourselves\, loved ones\, the world\, and with God\, then like Jesus\, we will leave behind a spirit that nourishes\, warms\, consoles\, and gives our loved one’s sacred permission to be at peace. How do we do that? What are our stories\, fears\, concerns\, and anxieties that inhibit us from giving our death away. \nJoin us as we sit with these questions\, listen to God and ourselves\, and explore this on retreat in community with one another. \nRSVP to Norma Meyer at 412.441.3800 x211 by Sunday\, October 19. Cost options are listed below. Contact Pastor BJ to discuss scholarships. \nOne Night \n\nFriday–Saturday or Saturday–Sunday | Private Room and Common Bath | $100\n\nTwo Nights \n\nFriday–Sunday | Private Room/Common Bath | $150\n\nOne Day \n\nSaturday | $50

SUMMARY:Environmental Team January Book Study
DESCRIPTION:For its next book\, the Environment Team of the Justice Committee has selected Shade: the Promise of a Forgotten Natural Resource by Sam Bloch. The discussion session will be held on Thursday\, January 22\, 7 pm\, via Zoom. \nIn his new book\, environmental journalist Sam Bloch encourages us to look to the past for solutions to our ever-warming urban areas as climate change creates heat waves that are more frequent\, hotter and longer lasting. Bloch’s call for more shade in urban areas\, with more trees in parks and residential areas and new ways to design public areas and buildings\, comes as policy makers grapple with a growing crisis in heat-related illness and death. \nFor further information and the Zoom link\, contact Nancy Heastings.
