Thursday Announcements
 May 26, 2022
Announcements from the Vestry

1).  A HUGE THANK YOU to all who helped clean up our parish last Saturday…flowers will be added to the pots after Memorial Day and we believe it will not freeze any more.  Any time any of you have the chance to pull a weed around the building feel free to do so…With our parish on a major street we want to keep it looking as beautiful as ever!!!
2) Thanks to all of you who are attending church both in-person and on-line.  Our collective voices on Sunday morning were magical.  How blessed we are to have such a faithful congregation.  See you all at 9:00 am on Sunday!!!
3) Office Hours – Ann will be in the office between 9:00AM and 1:00 PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Father Bob will be in the office on Wednesday, June 1 from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm.  The office phone will be manned outside of these hours when the office is closed.
4).  Please have a blessed Memorial Day.  Our thoughts and prayers are with those and their families who have given their lives for our freedom.
5) Please continue to offer prayers for our search committee and those who have been called as a possible rector for our church.  We can never have too many prayers!!! 
6) Some levity to share (because who couldn't use a good laugh these days?):  What did Daniel tell his real estate agent? “I’d prefer a house with no den.”
