Sunday Service: Every Sunday night we come together for service above the ORB basement. We meet at 5:00pm. This week, the YAG group is in charge of the Welcome. Thank you to Kathleen for volunteering to do the Welcome this upcoming Sunday!

Congregational Meeting: This Sunday immediately following the service, there will be an ORB wide congregational meeting held in the Sanctuary. Please come and listen to what's been happening at ORB and participate in the voting of elders for the board.

Service Opportunities: A new opportunity that is arising for the Service Group is the ability to take the Orb Sunday Service to those in need. Come take part in sharing the message of the Sunday sermon, serving communion or just bringing the light and love of God to those who are unable to take part in it at our weekly Sunday service. If you are interested in taking part of this, please see Chris DLC or Susan for more information. In addition, every Thursday there is a trip to Lunch Break Soup Kitchen in Red Bank from 10am - 1pm. There is also an opportunity to help drive food from business (like Panera) to soup kitchens in Monmouth County. Please contact Chris or Emily for more information.

30 Hour Famine: Join Kim Horan and other ORB High School kids and Young Adults in participating in a 30 Hour Famine beginning at 12pm on Friday and lasting until 6pm on Sunday. This event is being held to raise money to help feed the poor. If you are interested in participating, please see Kim Horan; if you are not interested in participating but would like to support those who are financially, talk to Kim or other participants of the 30 Hour Famine.

Thrift Shop Tour: Another Thrift Shop Tour is going to be taking place. Right now it is tentatively scheduled for May10. We are trying to schedule it so that as many people that want to go can come. We go to PA, visit a bunch of really neat thrift shops, perhaps buy a really ugly Cosby sweater, and then gorge on food. Obviously, a time to be had! If you are interested, contact Peter Andrews or Beth Purdy.


ORB Prom: It's that time of year again. ORB Prom is going to be held on May 9th. The theme is 50's Sock-hop. There is a meeting scheduled for Sunday, April 20th immediately following the service. Please come if you are interested in being a part of the planning committee or if you have any brilliant ideas you'd like to share! Feel free to email Jared or Kathleen with your ideas as well.

Ladies Night: Has been post-poned until May. Stay tuned for more details on location and a possible theme.

YAG Fall Retreat: I know it's early yet, but mark your calendars for the weekend of October 10-12th for the YAG Fall Retreat in Tuscarora!
