FATHER MARK’S ANNOUNCEMENTS
 
1.     YOUTH GROUP BEGINS THIS SUNDAY! We will meet at the Presbyterian Church (look for us outside the west entrance). Middle School begins at 4:30 P.M. then both groups                 gather for dinner at 5:30 and High School starts at 6:00 P.M. So – parents please bring your Middle School youth at 4:30 and plan to pick them up at 6:00. High Schoolers                come at 5:30 and are done at 7:00. It will make sense once we do it a time or two. But please do come and check this out. I’ll be there along with our leaders Trudy and Amy, and  Jeff and April and their lay leaders. 

2.       Blessing of the Animals Sunday October 3rd at 2:00 P.M. at Centennial Park (weather alt. in the Parish Hall). Don’t miss this chance to share a blessing with your beloved pet --            be it fish, fowl, two or four or other-legged, big, little, furry, finicky, feisty, or friendly. All pets are gifts from God and on St. Francis Day we remember that if God can love us, then God can certainly love the creatures that love and sustain us. See you at the Park on Oct 3rd! 

3.     I promised an update on COVID-19 policy at St. Francis and looking at our current status and trends locally, I think it is safest for all if we continue our current “Masks Required”       policy for worship in the sanctuary and for Godly Play for another month. Masks will continue to be optional for small groups of vaccinated adults gathering in the Parish Hall or Library either on Sunday or during the week. Again, this policy will be in effect through October and revisited for November. Hopefully we can make a change then. ​
