FATHER MARK’S ANNOUNCEMENTS

​1.  Watch your mail this weekend for a letter from your Parish Search Committee, inviting you to attend one of the three remaining “Holy Conversations.”

2.  Today we are printing new Parish Directories, and they will be available in the Narthex this weekend.

3.  Sunday we will celebrate two fun things:
  • First, we will debut and dedicate our new green altar frontal, hangings, and vestments which were memorial gifts from three families. I know you will be as impressed as I am with the beauty of these new worship items.
  • Second, Godly Play (ages 6-10) and Nursery (up to 5) begin again during our 10:00 A.M. service. Welcome back kids and families, and thank you so much to our teacher and helper volunteers! It feels more like church every week!
4. A word on masks and COVID – the data I can find (mayoclinic.org) shows a daily positive rate of 13, or 38/100k, which means we are still a hot spot and at higher than acceptable       risk. St. Francis is requiring masks during worship and in Godly Play during the month of September. Adults gathering in small groups for meetings and programs may do so     unmasked.

5.  Rae’s 9:00 A.M. Lectionary Study will not meet this Sunday September 5th, as she is isolating in place due to several positive cases at The Residency. 
 
6.  Don’t forget that next Thursday September 9th at 10:30 A.M. at the Carpenter Center Linda Rock will present a program on “Loss in Aging.” A lunch is offered at the Carpenter Center every weekday, and you may opt to stay for the lunch that is served at 11:30 following the presentation each week. Please RSVP to Kristin Wiebe, at 672-3923 or ekwiebe@gmail.com, to attend the 3 session series. Workshops are free, lunch cost is $6 – September’s menu available at the end of August.
