Nursery Hours for the Summer

C is for camp. We got a large dose Sunday in worship with the presence of Exec Dir Evan McElreath. And we raised over $1000 for the camp. We were also invited to participate in the upcoming 5k trail run. I'm headed up there on Sunday for a week to serve as the campus chaplain providing daily devotionals, leading communion, and being a pastoral presence for staff and Campers. Pray for me. The Conference encourages pastors to serve a week each summer in this capacity but I've never followed that instruction before. So I suppose G is for growth or E is for expanding my horizons. And as always, W is for Wanakee.

Blessings,

Rev Kelly

Craft Workshop - No Experience Required!

Fri. Aug. 9 and Sat. Aug. 10

Church Vestry from 9:30-1:00 both days

Thinking ahead for our Fall Fair coming up, Sat. Nov. 9, we are offering a two-day craft workshop in August to make some items to sell. You may attend one or both days, drop in as your schedule allows. Bring a snack or your lunch if staying all day. Our main project will be making pressed flower pictures. They practically design themselves! If you can dab glue with a toothpick you've got it made. We have all the supplies needed, including frames.

If you prefer a project that requires scissors and a glue gun you might want to bring those. There may be a few pinecone critters we haven't made in the past or some unmade treasure that may surface when Mavis and Kathy organize our storage room. Or feel free to bring something you are working on at home and just join us for the fellowship.

If you have questions or need a ride, please contact Pam Breniser at 603-566-2632 (call or text) or by email at pjbreniser@gmail.com
