+ The children and youth of St. Thomas wanted to remember how special their time with Roscoe Duncan had been while he was alive. At the church on Wednesday night, the kids went in search of beautiful colored ribbon, and tied bows on "Roscoe's Tree" which had been planted in honor of his 80th birthday in 2005. Roscoe may be gone but he is alive in all our hearts and memories! He will be missed.

 

+ Next Wednesday, May 11, the children and youth will meet at Chuck E Cheese at 6:00 p.m. for a pizza party and games to celebrate the end of the school year! Parents can drop off their children at 6:00 and pick-up their kids by 7:30. The Christian Education/Youth Department will pay for the food and a certain number of tokens per child. After those tokens are used, additional ones can be bought at the parents' expense. Please RSVP by emailing Erin at episcokids@stthomascolumbus.org or Brantley at youth@stthomascolumbus.org. 

 

+ The last day of children/youth Sunday School is Sunday, May 15. Please thank your children's teachers/leaders for their hard work and commitment to working with your children.

 

+ The last Wednesday Night Supper will be a festive Fish Fry on Wednesday, May 18. Following the supper, the children will have supervised free play on the playground.

 

+ Vacation Bible School is June 6-10. If you are able to help or have any questions, please contact Erin Redden.
