Saint Patrick's Weekly Reminders
June 25, 2015
|
Please join us this Sunday for worship at 8:30 or 10:30 am. Children's Chapel is suspended during the summer months, but children are invited to join their leaders during the first half of the 10:30 am service for structured and fun activities.
Sabbath frees us to truly play and rest. This week's spiritual practice opens us up to the glorious liberty God intended for us. Put this week's quote near the things you will use in your chosen play activity. Consider listening to the meditative music after play to reflect on how you feel. Read the Sabbath prayer daily to prepare for Sabbath. Use your calendar to make a quick note of play ideas as you think of them. You can still sign up for a weekly email by clicking here.
The Education for Ministry program is recruiting new members for its fall session. EFM is a four-year program, meeting weekly and covering the Old Testament, New Testament, church history and theology. EFM provides you with the foundations and message of our Christian faith. After 11 years of EFM at Saint Patrick's, many parishioners are graduates. Most of your questions regarding EFM are explained in detail by following this link. If you have further questions or require clarification, please contact Rick Krumel for more details and registration by June 30th.
Our Nursery/Children's Chapel at Saint Patrick's is in need of volunteers for the summer and fall. Since our attendance drops off in the summer, we are currently taking a break from Children's Chapel over the summer months. We will start back in late August. In the meantime, the kids are gathering to play and enjoy fellowship on the playground (weather permitting) and in the Nursery room so their parents can attend service. We are in need of two volunteers each Sunday, in addition to our Children's Ministry Leader, Stacey Fox. Stacey will be out of town for vacation on July 19th so three volunteers will be needed that day. If we are unable to get enough volunteers, we will have no choice but to close the Nursery and our summer Children's gathering on those weeks. Please take a look at your calendars and sign up to help out by clicking here.
