Annual Picnic This Sunday!

Please plan to join us this Sunday at 11:30 for our Annual Picnic. We will have some delicious bar-be-que and a fun, relaxing time of fellowship. DD BBQ will be providing barbequed chicken and pork. Please find a sign up sheet in the Narthex or contact the Church Office. We ask that you bring a side dish or dessert to share. We are looking for some additional hands to help set-up. If you would like to help, please join Susan and our other helpers at 9:00. We'll see you there!

Mission Possible: July 14-18

There is still time to sign up for Mission Possible. What is Mission Possible? Mission Possible is a week-long local mission camp for rising 6th-8th graders. Each day the group will travel beyond the walls of our own congregation to share their gifts for ministry in service to our area neighbors. A sign-up sheet for participants and parent/adult volunteers is available in the Narthex. Please register no later than Sunday, June 15.

Parent/adult volunteers are needed for planning purposes, a variety of daily tasks during the week of camp, and to help chaperone the campers on their daily missions. There is no need to prepare any lessons or do any formal teaching; we just need your presence! You do NOT need to have children in this age group to volunteer. For more information, please contact Rev. Laura.

Can You Spare a Few Hours to Feed Hungry Kids?

So when summer arrives what happens to children who got free lunches during the school year? St. Anne's partners with Cornerstones and Fairfax County on a Summer Feeding Program to serve summer lunch at the Cedar Ridge Community Center to children who are entitled to free or reduced price lunches during the school year. The program operates Monday through Friday beginning June 30 and running through August. Volunteers are needed between the hours of 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. to set up, serve lunch and clean up at the Cedar Ridge Community Center at 1601 Becontree Road near the Forest Edge School. While a once a week commitment is optimal you can sign up for as many or as few days as you'd like. If you are interested, contact Carol Hurlburt (703-264-9054).

Lunch for the Soul

Every Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. we help prepare and serve a hearty meal for day laborers who haven't been able to find work that day. Combining a church service with food and fellowship we work together to help our neighbors from distant shores. We've got some wonderfully committed volunteers, however, we can always use some extra hands. This event is hosted at Trinity Presbyterian Church located at 651 Dranesville Rd. in Herndon. We'd love to see you there! If you have any questions, please contact Katrina Alexander (703-328-5206).

Coffee Hour

During the summer months we rely on our amazing volunteers to provide items for our coffee hours following Sunday services. If you would like to bring in a yummy item to share, please sign up in the Narthex or contact the Church Office. Thanks!

Final Play of the 2013-14 St. Anne's Theater Series

A reminder to those who have signed up for the St. Anne's Theater Series: We are scheduled to see Freud's Last Session on Saturday, June 7 at Theater J. We have a large bus chartered as there are 41 of us signed up for this show. The bus will be in the St. Anne's parking lot by 6:15 or so. We hope to have a short discussion of the play following the performance. I hope that you will all be able to attend. If you are not able to attend, please contact Jimmy Hunter or Lorrain Cross and let us know.

Calling All VBS Volunteers!

Please join us for an organizational meeting on Wednesday, June 11 at 6:30 p.m. in the Library. Susan will be handing out teacher books and schedules for this summer's VBS. Please RSVP to Susan. You can also contact Susan with any questions. We look forward to seeing everyone on June 11!

Philadelphia Mission Trip -- Items Needed

Help us help the kids! The Philadelphia Mission Trip team is seeking donated items to take with them to Philadelphia on June 28. They are looking for craft supplies and summertime fun items such as: new bathing suits (in child/youth sizes), basketballs, footballs, kick balls, Frisbees, jump ropes, sidewalk chalk, UNO card decks, stickers, plastic craft lacing (gimp), multi-colored yarn, jumbo crayons, markers, and colored paper. Target gift cards welcome. All donations are greatly appreciated. Please place your donations in the bin in the Narthex prior to June 26. Thank you for your support!

Grill Night!

Grill Night returns June 18 at 6:30 p.m. Bring something for the grill for you and/or your family and something to share; enjoy fellowship and the setting sun. It's a wonderful way to relax and chat after a long day. We are in need of a Grill Master to help with set up and minding the grill. This would be a great job for 2 or 3 people to rotate or to share. If you are interested, please contact Susan.

Godly Play Continues into June

Godly Play will be offered on the following Sundays in June during the 10:00 a.m. Sunday service for rising 1st graders and older: June 8, 15, and 22. Questions? Please contact Rev. Laura.

Children's Chapel -- Summer 2014

Children's Chapel will be offered this summer during the 10:00 a.m. Sunday services in July and August. Children ages preschool through 5th grade are invited to participate. Volunteers are needed to lead Children's Chapel; no prior experience necessary! Two volunteers are needed each Sunday to teach the lesson and guide children in the craft. The lesson, craft idea and materials, and snack are provided each week. If you are interested in volunteering, please sign up on the sheet in the narthex or contact Rev. Laura.
