• Summer is here and with summer comes our “Lemonade in the Shade” coffee hour! These coffees are light and refreshing, just right for a summer Sunday. Bring cookies, some fruit, and a soft beverage e.g. lemonade or other fruit drink. Host with another family or friend or parishioner. Lemonade in the Shade will run each Sunday beginning June 16 through September 8. You may sign up on the sheet outside of White Hall.
• Another way to support VBS: Many materials are needed to put on VBS each summer for our children. Consider getting involved by donating an item or several from our “Giving Tree for VBS” that is located on the bulletin board outside of White Hall. Questions or need a supply list, please reach out to Harper Bathel. All items are due by Tuesday, June 18, please label VBS and place them on the table outside White Hall.
