More About the Clarion Church of God...

When visiting our church, please fill out a Friendship & Communication card that is located in back of each pew; place it in the offering plate or hand it to an Usher.
Also, for those worshiping with us for the first time... we have a gift for you. Please stop @ the Welcome Center in the Narthex by the Main Entrance to pick it up.

Youth News from Pastor Jonathan - December 2011

would really like to thank everyone for the gift cards, gifts of money, and other gifts we received for pastor appreciation month!  It is nice to know that we are appreciated and loved by all of you.  Over the past year we have had the opportunity to meet with several of you and spend some time together.  It is such a great opportunity for us to serve you and take part in molding your youth!  We hope and pray that God will continue to guide us and bless us as we strive to move His Kingdom forward.
I am happy and relieved to say we made it safely home from the state youth convention, “Thirst” in Erie.  We had a great weekend of fun, food, fellowship, and growing closer to God.  We were blessed to have nice weather; we all know what the weather in Erie can be like in November.  Over the course of the weekend we were challenged to make an impact in our communities, to be the hands and feet of Christ.  Please continue to encourage you’re youth to volunteer or sacrifice their time to help make this community one that will be known by its fruits.  As a last thought, and side note, I don’t recover from being up all night as well as I use to!
For those who haven’t heard, we raised almost $900.00 at the bake sale during our annual Thanksgiving dinner.  That is Awesome!  Thank you all for participating in the auction and supporting the youth who will be going to the International Youth Convention in Denver, CO this coming summer.  A special thanks to Matt Bates for being our auctioneer! Thanks Matt!
