  Saint Patrick's Weekly Reminders
September 25, 2014

Please join us for worship this Sunday for worship at 8:30  a.m. and 10:30 a.m. Children's Chapel for children in preschool through grade 5 will take place during the first half of the 10:30 a.m. service. 

 

Our lawn at Saint Patrick's will be aerated and over seeded on Monday or Tuesday (9/29, 9/30). It will be best if we limit foot traffic for a period of two to three weeks so that the new grass has time to germinate and become established. This is important for the long-term health and beauty of the lawn. Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this important enhancement of our surroundings. 


Treat yourself to a vibrant Spiritual Refresher on Saturday, October 4th from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. Lunch is included. Your four-hour Spiritual Refresher will include teaching and conversation with your rector and assisting rector on relevant spiritual topics and reflection times with guiding questions. The topic for this session is "The Use of Sacred Gesture." If you would like to attend, please use this link to sign up.

 

Please join us as we observe the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi, on Sunday, October 5th at the 10:30 a.m. service. You are invited to bring your pet (or a stuffed stand-in) to receive a blessing as part of the liturgy that day. The 8:30 a.m. service will be held indoors as usual and will be pet-free. The 10:30 a.m. service will take place in the rear parking lot. Dogs are to be kept on a leash, while cats or smaller animals should be confined to carriers. Remember to bring blankets or lawn chairs to sit on. A small seating area will be provided for anyone who forgets, or requires more stable seating. 

 

The Bible passages we read each Sunday are used not only by the Episcopal Church but also by many major Christian denominations worldwide. Imagine the power and prayer generated by millions of Christians reflecting on the same passages every week. All at Saint Patrick's are invited to spend some time together between our two services to share these readings and discuss how they touch our hearts.

 

You've been to church and been fed spiritually through prayer and Eucharist and you've been fed intellectually through the sermon and your own reflections. But then your body gets thirsty! You are invited to enjoy a cup of coffee or lemonade after the 10:30 a.m. service every Sunday. 


Beginning on Sunday, October 5 we will be trying something different in scheduling of our acolytes. We will now be accepting volunteers to sign up to serve as an acolyte for the upcoming Sunday. If you are already an acolyte at Saint Patrick's you received an email communication about this new procedure. You can click here to begin to sign up for a Sunday. If you are not currently an acolyte but would like to become one, please contact Bob Millikin.  

 

Our next scheduled day to serve as Prep Chefs at the Mooresville Soup Kitchen is on Tuesday, October 14th from 1 to 4 pm. Currently we still have many slots to fill. We are in need of 6 to 10 volunteers, 16 years of age and older who can commit to helping to prepare the frozen meals for those in need. You can sign up to help by clicking here

Take a weekend in early November and travel to the mountains in Western North Carolina for time with our Rector and other St Pat's family members.  Yes,  Mark Forbes will be providing a program for the weekend in addition to our time together to enjoy some fun, food and fellowship.  Save on your calendar November 7-9.  More information coming, but contact David Bramigk at 704-880-4331 with questions.

Saint Peter's Episcopal Church in Charlotte will host a timely conversation on Domestic Violence on Tuesday, October 14 from 6:15 to 7:30 pm. Sponsored by Saint Peter's Women's Ministry, this event is open to both men and women. Click here for a flyer with all the details. 


Saint James' Episcopal Church on Shinnville Road in Mooresville will hold a Spaghetti Dinner on Saturday, October 18th from 4 pm to 7 pm. Cost is $7 for adults and $5 for children. The proceeds will be split between Shepherd School and the Brody Thompson Foundation. There will be door prizes and a 50/50 raffle.
