Planners/Presiders: Please send copies of your worship services to Eldora Engebretson (elnjoeng@cox.net) , Heather (heather.featherstone1972@gmail.com), and the person scheduled to do your PowerPoint (check the schedule) as soon as possible. This is especially important if you are doing new hymns that are not as familiar to the congregation.
In an effort to clear some space for a future project, the facilities and worship committees invite you “help yourself†to any of the old hymnals that are now located on the short pew in the fellowship area. Please take what you wish. Anything not claimed by August 7 will be donated to Goodwill. Thank you in advance!
Heather is looking for people that have a sewing machine or are pretty good with a needle and thread (or knitting/crochet). She is in need of people that are willing to put together shoulder bags for the Manna Bag project at the end of August. Homemade, reusable bags are a nicer gift than a Ziploc baggie of goodies. Please see Heather for patterns and/or materials (she has some scrap material and LOTS of yarn) if you are interested in donating your time to this project.
August 12-14, @ Whispering Pines: Young Adult Retreat. More info coming soon.
August 19-21, @ Whispering Pines: Spiritual Growth Retreat.
Sunday, August 28 during worship service: Manna Bags are coming. More information is coming soon. Be on the lookout for announcements and flyers around the building
September 16-18, @ Whispering Pines: Women’s Retreat.
