September 20, 2009 Rector's Reflection 
Today we began our "Fall/Winter/Spring" Schedule at church.
I trust it did not catch you by surprise:
8:30 Eucharist
9:15 Sunday School
10:00 Eucharist with Music
We enjoyed a wonderful morning. I was especially pleased with the beginning of our Sunday School year. And -- the opening of our new Nursery. Now -- the children and babies will all find a special place at St. Ann's.
If you were present this morning - thank you for contributing to the meaningful liturgy and worship. If you were not present -- be safe in your travels, be rested in your activities, be well in body and spirit, and be at St. Ann's when next you are able.
Don't forget -- Tomorrow is the deadline for ordering your lobsters. Call your order in (815-338-0950), or drop it by and put it in the mail slot at the church, or simply order online a www.stannswoodstock.org.
Don't forget -- either -- this Thursday -- Sept. 24 -- Bishop Joseph Atem, from Renk, Sudan, at St. Ann's. See all the details below. (Nursery will be provided. Bring all the children!)
Please, scroll down the announcements and articles below - you don't want to miss anything! Thank you.
God Bless You! Rev. Pat Conley
