A Service of Wholeness and Healing
We yearn, O Christ, for wholeness, and for your healing touch …
We believe God’s purpose for us all is a life of wholeness, as the life and teachings of
Jesus express. As the church, called to be a healing community in the world, we
invite you to gather with us for a service of song, meditation, prayers for healing, and
celebration of the Lord’s Supper, Wednesday, January 21, 7:00 PM, Sanctuary. For
more information, contact Jana Reister ([email protected]), 513-321-2573 x106.
The Book Group invites you!
Next Gathering: Monday, January 12, 7:00 PM at Marjorie P. Lee
3550 Shaw Ave Cincinnati, OH 45208, in Lee Library.
The book is: Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand
Questions? Please contact Becky Gibbs

Knox Worship and the Seasonal Flu
Recent data from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) predicts a severe 2014-2015
flu season. Let's do all we can to protect ourselves and each other while continuing
to worship together by getting a flu shot and practicing everyday precautions like:
covering our coughs and sneezes, using hand sanitizer in worship as needed, and
by staying home when ill until fever free for at least 24 hours without use of
medication. Please visit www.flu.gov for more detailed information and updates.
Are you missing your portrait?
Everyone who sat for a LifeTouch portrait receives a
free 8 x 10 or wallet collection. Your photos were sent
to the church, unless you specified another address.
Please check the Michigan Avenue lobby for a box
labeled “Lifetouch portraits”. Yours may be in there!
Opportunities to Grow and Serve
TODAY begins an exciting new weekly Bible study following the Fresh Spirit worship
service. At 10:20 AM in the Session Room, Knox Pastors and members will facilitate
this 30-minute class offering examination and reflection on the meaning of the
weekly sermon scripture. Join us for discussion on how this passage may influence
you and provide guidance for Knox Church. Today’s facilitator is Pastor Adam
Fronczek. Each Sunday meeting will be held at 10:20 AM in the Session Room.
Sunday, January 25 – 9:15 AM, Chapel; Dr. Earl Rivers and the Knox Choir will
preview the upcoming works of the Knox Music Series (3/8/15 at 2:00 PM). Works will
feature Mozart’s Vespers K. 339 and Haydn’s Harmoniemesse (Wind Band Mass).
Both are among the composers’ most popular works.
Beyond Pop Art: A Trip to the Art Museum
TODAY Knox Church members and friends visit the Cincinnati Art
Museum exhibition of Tom Wesselmann’s work. His subject matter is
traditional – nudes, landscapes, still lifes and interiors, moving to
abstractions late in his career.
The retrospective closes Sunday, January 18.
Meet at the Museum Café for lunch at 12:30 PM. Lunch is on your own. Please sign
up today at the Michigan Avenue desk so we can provide the Café with the number
who will be eating there. The docent-led tour will follow at 2:00 PM. We will meet for
the tour in the Great Hall. If you wish to come for the tour only, please note that on
the tour sheet. Questions? Call Peg Halberstadt at 513-247-1672.
Soup and Sweaters
Sunday, February 1, dress casually in your favorite sweater or Knox
sweatshirt! We’ll have one worship service at 10:00
AM, the Congregational Meeting at 11:00 AM,
immediately followed by the congregational
luncheon in the Commons where we’ll enjoy a delicious bowl of
soup, hearty bread, dessert and fellowship! Please bring the item
listed below according to the first letter of your last name:
A – H: Bring 1 dozen cookies, brownies, bars, or any other "finger” desserts.
J – Q: Bring 1 cup fresh or frozen, cut up veggies.
R – Z: Bring 1 loaf of bakery bread (French, Italian, etc., pre-sliced is welcomed!)
We are going "green" again this year. We encourage you to bring your own soup
bowls, cups, plates, and silverware from home. We’ll have a rinsing station. Veggies,
breads, and desserts can all be dropped off at the Knox Kitchen prior to the
10:00 AM worship service. Members of the Growth and Outreach Committee will be
on hand to assist you. Questions? Contact Rich Wilson ([email protected]).
Women’s Bible Study
All women are welcome each 2nd and 4th
Wednesday of the month, 7:00 PM – 8:15 PM, at
Beechwood Home, Private Dining Room,
2140 Pogue Avenue, Cincinnati. We gather next on
Wednesday, January 13. We’ll continue with the
study, “Living the Questions” – you may join in at
any time. Questions? Contact Jana Reister
([email protected] or 513-321-2573). We hope to see you there!
Women’s Fellowship
The next meeting will be Wednesday, January 14, at 10:30 AM in the Knox
Commons. Come discover the history of Presbyterian Women and how they make a
difference in the world. Susan Maier, Knox member, will offer some history and help
you see how you make a difference, locally and globally. A luncheon will follow - cost
$8. Please email your reservation to Phyllis Wahl ([email protected]).
