ASL interpreted Service
As a way of widening Old South’s welcome and accessibility to those with hearing impairments, Old South is experimenting with having our services interpreted. For the next few months, we plan to have a ASL (American Sign Language) interpreter at services on the first and third Sundays of each month. Tracy Villinski, a regular Old South attendee, will offer her services for some of those Sundays and will coordinate interpreters for the others.

HEALING PRAYER GROUP 
Watch the weekly bulletin for location details. (Healing Prayer takes place on the second Sunday of each month unless otherwise noted.) All are welcome to this time of prayer and reflection upon God’s healing power as we “practice the presence of God” and seek the healing and hope needed for ourselves, each other, our community, and for the world in which we live.  For more information, contact Ken Orth at 781/643-1112 or <ken.orth@comcast.net>.

SUNDAY FLOWERS:

The Sunday Flower Calendar for 2008 is up in the elevator lobby. Donating Sunday flowers is a special way to remember loved ones and special events. The cost is $50. Put your name by the date you want and send the message you wish to appear in the bulletin to Helen McCrady at <helen@oldsouth.org>. Donors are needed for April through November 2008.






Congregational Prayer Requests
Click above to send an e-mail to our Associate Minister Quinn Caldwell
who will include your prayer request into the Pastoral Prayer at the upcoming worship service. Upholding one another in prayer is one of the best ways the church can care for one another. We would love to care for you or ones you love in this way by praying with you in the Pastoral Prayer on Sunday mornings. The best way to communicate your prayer requests is to e-mail Quinn (above), or Nancy at <nst@oldsouth.org>, or Quinn at <quinn@oldsouth.org>, or to be in touch with one of us by phone at 617/536-1970. We publicly pray using only first names to protect privacy but, of course, welcome your account of the fuller names and stories as you communicate your requests. Please do not use the prayer box in the back of the sanctuary if your prayer is urgent.  Note that this is a change.  We’ve decided that the prayer box is best used to collect the prayers of those who visit our sanctuary over the course of a week; while we try to collect and pray those requests every Sunday, we are not always able to include every prayer that is put into the box.
