Hope that your Pentecost weekend was full of the Spirit. Our worship on Sunday was a joyful one - we welcomed home Betty Ragan, back from Farmington, who played the piano for us (Thanks be to God!) and it was a joy to see Jenna Morris take a seat up front to play the clarinet.
Just a reminder of how important music is to our time of worship :)
Men of the Church! If you missed this past weekend's breakfast, then take heart. We will do it again on Saturday, July 2nd at 8:00AM. The idea is simply to come together. No hidden agendas. Just hang out and enjoy some homecooked food. Spread the word too. This could be a great way to include people from around our community.
Attention Elders: We had a scheduling "mixup" which I think is my fault. I am sorry for that. The meeting that we had planned for this past Sunday with Rev. Land and Janell Kane is actually this Sunday, June 11. We will proceed with meeting after church for about an hour with them. This Biennial Visit is a little like going to the doctor for a "Wellness Exam" to see how things are going in our church and with your pastor.
Lois Hanson: Dear friends, received word that Lois Hanson, a former member of the church has passed away. She had moved to California to be with family and had had a series of mini-strokes from which she never could recover. Please hold her daughter Barbara and the rest of the family in your prayers.
Say it with Cookies: Do you enjoy baking? There are two opportunities coming up when cookies (or other baked goods) will be needed. 1) Mid August to sell at the Quay County Fair and 2) September 11th, when we are delivering cookies to the local First Responders. Let me know if you can help with either/both of these dates.
Friday, June 30th Fun and Games: You all are invited to a Game Night. It happens to be my birthday but the best gift is if we all got together and just had a fun and relaxing evening of fellowship. Bring yourself and a friend. Bring your favorite board game or cards; there will be refreshments. We'll start about 6:00PM and see how long we last :)
Today:
Yoga today at noon sharp! We have an hour of yoga scheduled today. Bring a strap or belt if you have trouble reaching your toes.
Quay-Z Quilters at 1:00PM
Wednesday and Friday: Exercise, Eat and Pray 9:00AM
Sunday after worship: Elders, don't forget our meeting with Ted and Janell.
Please remember in prayer:
Barbara Bonneau and her family after the loss of her mother, Lois Hanson.
Dr. James Saltz's family
Travelers
Angie Garcia
Joe Russell Rivera
I hope you'll send me an email here if you have other prayer requests.
I hope that wherever you find yourself this week, you also find God with you.
Blessings,
Pastor Amy
