Monday Morning Bible Study

Food Drive a Smash Success!

The Mothers Day Food Drive concluded yesterday in a big way! Over fifty bags stuffed with groceries were brought in to the church; monetary donations were also placed in the offertory. The food and money collected will go to the FOCUS Food Pantry to be distributed to area families in need. Thank you to all who donated in honor of their mothers!

Acolytes Needed

You don't have to be a teenager to be an acolyte! Adults of all ages are encouraged to join this important ministry and lend a hand on Sundays at the altar. Custom training and semi-custom-fit robes will be provided. If you are interested, please speak to Reverend Mary, Lynn Nally or Rich Angelo.

Beautiful Music

The children of the parish wowed the crowd yesterday with lovely singing at the Mothers Day Recital. Thanks go out to Bailey and Connor Grugan, Kaelin Bray, Sumahri Stewart and Arianah Moore who sang charmingly together. Special thanks goes to Caroline Gregg who sang two solo pieces. Parish members are invited to hear more of Caroline's lovely singing; she will perform in recital Sunday May 16th at 6:30 p.m. in Kiggins Hall at Emma Willard school.

A Place to Pray

The Prayer Team Ministry has been praying at the back of the church with individuals during communion for several months now. Space at the back of the church is tight and the Vestry is considering proposals to create a space where prayer can take place undisturbed. One proposal is to remove several of the short pews at the rear right side of the church. Comments are requested (two have been made so far). The matter will be discussed at the May 17 Vestry meeting.
