In 2013 both the Second and Denbigh Churches have carried out their respective ministries within the churches, community and world even as we have been preparing to unite as one congregation. Thanks to the hard work of our Plan of Union Team, the open hearts of SPC and DPC members and the movement of the Holy Spirit, Second and Denbigh Presbyterian Churches made the decision to unite. Our union became official in stages: sessions approved, congregations approved, the Presbytery of Eastern Virginia approved. Then, on January 5, 2014 our union became official during a worship service at which our officers were ordained and/or installed, I was installed as pastor of DUPC and the Administrative Commission of PEVA pronounced us united. While it is a time of rejoicing that God has brought us together, it is also a time of transition and change for all of us. As we journey forward as a united church, we will have many adjustments to make. Similar to the first years of marriage (or perhaps all the years of marriage!) our journey will involve learning each others ways, compromising, being creative and demonstrating grace to one another. We will need to remember our purpose to honor and serve God as we share Christs love in our words and deeds with the community and world. In Colossians 3: 12-17, Paul writes: As Gods chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; teach and admonish one another in all wisdom; and with gratitude in your hearts sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. It is my earnest prayer that these words will guide us as we journey forward as a united church. I am truly excited about what God has done and all that God will do in and through us The Denbigh United Presbyterian Church. In Christs Love and Service,
Deborah

PRESCHOOL
2013 Pre-Kindergarten Board Chair: Kristi Spivey 2014 Preschool Board Co-Chairs: Shirlie Anson and Joe Bender The Denbigh United Presbyterian Preschool provides Christian ministry to the community through preschool education for 2 , 3 and 4 year old children. Enrollment is approximately 60 students with a staff of 11; 4 teachers, 4 assistant teachers, an administrative assistant, music teacher and the director. (Please note that the Denbigh Presbyterian Pre-Kindergarten is now the Denbigh United Presbyterian Preschool per the Sessions vote in late 2013.) Preschool Director: Maggie Vincelette
2013 Members: Shirlie Anson, John McLeod (Treasurer), Shirley Rucker (Assistant Treasurer), Carolyn Vassos 2013 Highlights: The DPC Pre-Kindergarten continued to provide quality Christian nurture to the community.
27
The School provided ministry to the community through its quality education program that included bi-weekly chapel for all students and their parents or other caregivers. Stay and Play, an afternoon program offered 1 or 2 days a week for children to stay into the afternoon, continued to be successful. The School also participated in Church programs such as Samaritans Purse Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes, food collections for DUCO, and Angel Tree. The Pre-K maintains a scholarship fund to provide assistance to low-income and temporarily stressed families who wish to take advantage of the outstanding capabilities of the School. We currently have one student attending on scholarship. The current breakdown of classes is: 2 classes of 4-year-old children, 2 classes of 3-year-old children and one class of 2 year-old children. In 2013 we increased Staff Training and Professional Development. Currently participating in the state of Virginia Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS). The rater from VSQI (Virginia Star Quality Initiative) returned to the school in February 2013, and a 4 star quality rating was awarded to DPPK for the second time. This rating is valid for 2 years. Representatives from DPPK and SPPS (Second Presbyterian Pre-School) met to discuss the feasibility of uniting the two schools. While both schools were found to offer high quality educational opportunities and each had similar goals and objectives the decision was made by the Board of SPPS to close their school at the end of the 2013/2014 school year. Although the schools will not be united, the name of DPPK has changed to Denbigh United Presbyterian Preschool to reflect its affiliation with the united churches. As this report is being written work is moving forward on increasing the depth of the pea gravel in the fall zone around playground equipment. With the help of 9 strong volunteers the two largest pieces of equipment were moved to the grass to allow work to go forward and realizing a savings of $1,200!
2014 Goals: Under the leadership of the new board co-chairs, Shirlie Anson and Joe Bender and the continued exemplary leadership of the present director, Maggie Vincelette, Denbigh United Presbyterian Preschool will: Continue Church ministry to the community by providing a high quality preschool program Reach out to those families whose children are currently attending Second Presbyterian Preschool and encourage them to consider Denbigh United Presbyterian Preschool for the 2014-2015 school year and beyond Continue strengthening ties between the Preschool and the Church through more opportunities for integrated ministries and operations. Continue to participate in the state of Virginia Star Quality Initiative. Continue to support the churchs outreach by requesting food donations for DUCO and shoeboxes for Samaritans Purse Operation Christmas Child from the school families.

planning
With help from other committees, especially small group ministry and
fellowship, coordinated the Worship on the Lawn and all special worship services 2014 Goals: Continue to assist the minister in developing themes and ideas to enhance the worship service. Review the worship service elements and order of service to improve the worship experience and make it a spiritual blessing to the congregation. Explore ways to have youth more involved in the worship service to include additional youth services, singing, instrumentalists, plays, information technology support, etc. Incorporate media and creative elements into the worship service at least one service every other month and more often if possible.
32
Greeters and Ushering Team Doug Spruill, Team Leader 2013 Highlights: For the year 2013 the Ushering and Greeting ministry assured that everyone who attended services at Denbigh Presbyterian Church was appropriately treated as a welcome Child of God Greeters were posted near the front and back doors of the church to assure that all entering were made welcome Ushers provided bulletins to all who needed them and assisted those who were visiting to find a seat where they could feel comfortable. This particular ministry is one of the most well supported in the church, having by far the greatest number of volunteers on the time and talent sheets Don and Peggy Harvey maintained the Ministry of Friendship pads. 2014 Goals: Conduct annual training for ushers, ushering team captains, and greeters in order to improve these hospitality ministries and to refine procedures. Develop a simple check list for ushers to use to ensure all their duties are done before, during, and after the service. Maintain Ministry of Friendship Pads ensuring they have the necessary materials. Worship Leaders and Readers Team 2013 Highlights: After receiving the Master Schedule of Worship Leaders and Youth Readers from Master Scheduling Team training was provided for all worship leaders and youth readers.

Collaborated with the Pastor to develop seasonal readings (such as Advent and Lent) 2014 Goals: Provide annual training for worship leaders, so there is more consistency. Provide both practice and training for youth readers, so they may better articulate their readings. Music Ministry Team - Dr. Kelly Montgomery, Chair January September Jane Martin, Chair October - December 2013 Highlights: Kelly Montgomery provided leadership for the first two thirds of the year and delighted the congregation with interesting and inspiring music from the choir,
33
on the piano and organ. Pieces were chosen to support the nature of most services and give even greater meaning to Biblical verses and sermons The final third of the year we were fortunate to have Jane Martin step into the breach and ably lead the choir and music ministry through the busy fall, Advent and Christmas season. We were happy to also welcome back Al Buchanan as interim organist. Both of these talented musicians will continue in their interim roles through the Easter season.
2014 Goals: Continue to offer a variety of musical styles and experiences as fitting to the particular setting and at the discretion of the Director of Music and Pastor. Continue to encourage the congregation to participate in DUPC music programs. Maintain church instruments. Bring in professional and amateur performing groups to DUPC in the spirit of fellowship and exposure to other styles of Christian music-making to include, but not limited to: African-American, Contemporary Gospel, Blue Grass, Folk, Country, and Pop-Rock Contemporary.

Communion was served on a monthly basis in addition to special liturgical days such as Christmas Eve and Easter. A procedure was set in place to properly dispose of the left over bread and used juice. Some of the bread and juice was saved, if communion was being taken to the shut-ins. Several Session members were trained in administering communion to the shut-ins. A matching communion set and intinction set were purchased using donated funds. The sets consisted of two chalices, two plates, one pitcher, and one pitcher stand. 2014 Goals: In collaboration with the minister, review the procedure for distributing communion by intinction, ensuring that the minister, worship assistant and other special people are served. Explore different ways to serve communion by intinction such as offering bread to dip in juice, offering bread on a plate and juice in cups, etc.

Take a few moments and write your goals for 2014. How would you like to serve God as you are scattered and intentionally placed by God in various arenas of work, study and play in the coming year?
Now pause to pray for Gods wisdom, guidance and strength. Go forth to serve the Lord in 2014.
