 Thursday Announcements May 12, 2022 Announcements from the Vestry 1) Our one service at 9:00 AM on Sundays continues to go well. We know we have had some issues with live streaming. Please know we continue to work to make this option happen every Sunday. Don’t forget to join us for coffee hour immediately following the service – What a great way to connect with members of our church!!! 2) Office Hours – Ann will be in the office between 9:00AM and 1:00PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Father Bob will be in the office on Wednesday, May 18 from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm.

There will be opportunities to help both inside and outside. We will begin at 9:00AM and plan to end around noon. There will be plenty of refreshments and plenty of good company. Please bring any tools that would help us do the job! 5) Over the summer, Vestry meetings will move from Wednesday evenings to Sunday mornings at 10:20AM. The dates for Vestry meetings during the summer are: May 22th (note change), June 26th, July 24th, and August 28th. 6) Please continue to offer prayers for our search committee as they prepare for next steps in the process of finding St. Francis’s new Rector. 7) Some levity to share (because who couldn't use a good laugh these days?): A minister told his congregation: "Next week I plan to preach about the sin of lying. To help you understand my sermon, I want you all to read Mark 17." The following Sunday, as he prepared to deliver his sermon, the minister asked for a show of hands. He wanted to know how many had read Mark 17. Nearly every hand went up. The minister smiled and said, "Mark has only sixteen chapters. I will now proceed with my sermon on the sin of lying." Ann's Announcements  HAPPY GRADUATION AND BEST WISHES FOR THE FUTURE!!! Happy Birthday!!!
