Truex to Speak at Coshocton Lenten Luncheon

Emily Truex, a member of The Fellowship of Christian Athletes, will be the speaker for the second Lenten Luncheon Wednesday, Feb. 25. The luncheons are held in the fellowship hall of The Presbyterian Church, 142 N. Fourth St., across from Court Square, and begin at 11:45 a.m. The luncheons end promptly at 12:45 p.m.

Truex is a junior at Coshocton High School and is a member of the Coshocton Church of the Nazarene. She is a member of five other clubs not including FCA. Some hobbies of hers include spending time with friends and family, cooking, and painting. Her scripture will be from John 14:15-20 with the theme of earthly promises.

Church Women United, under the leadership of Christa Citola, coordinate the churches providing soups, pies and kitchen workers. Members of The Fellowship of Christian Athletes provide additional support with workers from local high schools.

Churches providing soups and pies for this luncheon are Roscoe United Methodist Church and Coshocton Church of the Nazarene. Each week a choice of two soups, a selection of pies, and cheese cubes donated by Pearl Valley Cheese and carrot and celery sticks are on the tables. A suggested donation of $5 is appreciated to help defray expenses.

Any additional money at the end of the six Lenten Luncheons is used to purchase clothing and shoes for children suggested by Salvation Army. This is the primary mission project of Church Women United.

Parking for the event is available in the parking lot adjacent to the church at the chapel entrance door. Additional parking is available in the city parking lot near to the church.

In the event of inclement weather, cancellation information will be available on WTNS Radio and will be available as early as possible.
