Reverend Bob Hoffman - Interim Pastor
The Community Reformed Church of Colonie welcomes you. We are a community bound together and energized by faith, love, and commitment to Jesus Christ. And even though you may not yet share that faith, love, and commitment, you are most welcome to be with us, to belong here, to experience what we're about. Then, if you are attracted and persuaded by what you see and hear, we hope you'll want to set down roots here long-term. And even if you don't, you'll always be a friend.
Thanksgiving Worship
November 24, 10AM
At this special worship service, worshippers gather around tables and share in a simple yet meaningful meal of bread, cheese, cider, grapes, and cookies. During a time of meditation, notes of thanks are written on gold and white strips of paper that will be made into a thank you chain. That paper chain will encircle our Chrismon Tree during the Advent season.
Those worshipping in person are asked to sign up so enough food and place settings are available. Those worshipping on Zoom are encouraged to have snacks and a candle on hand to fully participate in this communal service.

Building and Grounds Tasks
Current continuous needs are setting up the sanctuary on Saturday for the worship service on Sunday and light cleaning in the Sanctuary. Have you observed some other opportunity or need that we have missed? Feel free to dive right in! We have a large very active campus, and many hands make light work.
Please contact the church office or Kevin Ingalls, Deacon of Building and Grounds, at [email protected] if interested in serving the church with these duties. The more that we can do to help our church, the less we will have to pay to have done.
Interested? Questions? Contact Kevin Ingalls or Lori Cote in the church office, [email protected].

Al-Anon
Meeting every Friday from 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm, Meetings are currently being held virtually.
Al-Anon is for anyone who has been affected by alcoholism. If you are concerned about someone else's drinking, the Al-Anon program can offer help.
Al-Anon began over 50 years ago as "family groups," attended by the families of alcoholics who found sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous. Today, Al-Anon/Alateen members are finding serenity and help in our program, whether the alcoholic is still drinking or not. Recovery in Al-Anon is based on the Twelve Steps (adapted from Alcoholics Anonymous).
Missions
Throughout the year, we work with numerous agencies and organizations throughout the Capital District and beyond. The Schulyer Inn Shelter, Colonie Outreach Center, Albany Overflow Shelter, Things of My Very Own, and Reformed Church World Service are just a few organizations that we support.
When our worship is over, our service begins.
