Summer Schedule

Thanks to those providing worship and musical leadership over the summer.

Saturday, August 7th - St. Paul’s Car Rally and Barbecue
The first car will leave the church at 4 p.m. You may sign up as an individual or put together your own team of four. Everyone on the Rally will end up at a surprise location for a barbecue. If you don’t want to do the rally but would just enjoy having dinner with us you may come at 5:30 p.m. Contact Margaret Kelley at 442-6469 to sign up or if you would like more details.

Joint Needs Assessment Committee Report
Following the service this week there will be one more opportunity to hear a verbal report from the Joint Needs Assessment Committee. This will happen immediately following worship. This will be a repeat of the report presented on June 22nd.
Church Council will be meeting to consider the recommendations of the report in July. If you wish to pass on your thoughts about the report please contact Dave Boyd prior to July 14th. Phone 519-442-0315.
A congregational meeting will be scheduled for the fall.

Summer Flowers
If you could supply garden flowers or hanging baskets for one of the summer worship services in the auditorium please contact Verna Young at 519-442-3404.

Sunday school in the summer
Sunday School will continue each Sunday through June. In July an informal program of videos, snacks and discussion will be available for children and youth. In August there is no Sunday School. Children are welcome to join their parents or friends for the service. There will be a quiet activity table nearby for those who are restless. The new Sunday School year will begin September 12.

Canning? Preserving? Jamming?
Why not set an extra jar or two aside for the UCW Candy Cane Bazaar? Home cooking and baking always sell fast!
