Altar Guild

 

 

 

 

You may have noticed a different look to the altar during the month of July. While Kristin+ was away, we celebrated with the Morning Prayer Service. Candles were the only items on the altar! Ashley Conlon provided the beautiful arrangements beside the altar. The Altar Guild would like to thank Dave, Annie, Blix, and Peter for leading us in Morning Prayer

Now that Kristin+ has returned, the Altar Guild with be setting up for the Sunday Eucharist again. This will be a much more familiar look to many of us. The altar frontal is still green and will stay green thru the fall.

Please continue to keep yourself safe and hopefully we will be seeing more of us at church each Sunday.

Thrift Shop

 

 

 

 

The Thrift Shop Needs Your Help!

We recently had one volunteer leave and two employees resign in one day.  This really puts the shop in a bind by not having adequate help to handle and process all the donations we receive each day.  We posted the job on Facebook for new employees, however, we can’t anticipate when the vacancies will be filled.  (As a side note, the majority of employees and volunteers at the shop are over 60 years old.)

We no longer have a paid manager at the shop.  Chris Henyon, who is also the Thrift Shop Board Chair, Deb Schaeffer and Cheryl Windsor have taken over that responsibility in a volunteer capacity.  Chris works full-time, Deb is employed part-time and Cheryl is retired.  They split the duties between them while also working behind the scene on thrift shop related matters.

We really need you to help us during this critical time.  Everyone knows that the church relies heavily on the income that the Thrift Shop and Nursery School provide to our church.  We certainly don’t want to reduce our hours of operation because that will only result in lost revenue.

Teens can volunteer at the shop to fulfill their requirement for school service hours.  An hour at a time is so helpful!

We are working diligently to resolve this matter and come up with alternate solutions.  Please contact Cheryl Windsor at dcwindsor@comcast.net to volunteer.  She will be coordinating all the volunteer hours.

Thank you,

Thrift Shop Management Team

OUTOOR HOLY EUCHARIST WITH MUSIC

Join us this Sunday for Holy Eucharist with music
in the Memorial Garden at 10:30 am

• This is a mask-optional service
• If this service moves indoors due to inclement weather, it will be still be mask-optional except during singing – anyone who chooses to sing will be required to mask up for the hymns

Inclement Weather Announcements
This summer, our 10:30 service will be celebrated outdoors if the weather cooperates.  If the weather looks threatening, the 10:30 service will be held indoors.  when we decide to celebrate the 10:30 service indoors, we’ll post an announcement to our Facebook page by 8:00 am Sunday morning.  (In the past we sent an email on Saturday afternoon.  This new streamlined approach gets us out of the weather forecasting business – a little, anyways.)
