This is the 12th Sunday after Pentecost (Proper 15). After church this week we will distribute filled backpacks to local students in our region.
Our parish picnic was a grand success- there were 32 people there. There are some pictures posted to the right. Just click on our Facebook link to see them.
Just a few more weeks of selling items for 1000Jobs Haiti. We are appreciative of the fact that so many different parishioners have volunteered to help out with this project.
September will be a big month for us. On Sunday, Sept 16, it is WELCOME BACK SUNDAY! We will welcome back families who have been away in the summer and invite visitors and newcomers to join us. Church school will start that day. We have a new curriculum for a 1-room classroom to incorporate all of the students.
Our AFTER SCHOOL CLUB meets on Thursdays from 2:30-4:30 when school is in session. This is a social time for students. Snacks are provided and there are games, puzzles and activities. All ages are welcome.
On Tuesday, Sept, 18, we will begin a new program called TUESDAY TUTORING. This will run every Tuesday from 2:30-4:30 at the church. Local educators will be available to help middle school and high school students with their homework. Parent permission is required for this program. For more information, call 749-2679.
On Saturday, Sept. 29, the diocese will sponsor a Safe Church Training session at St. Thomas from 9-4. This program is designed for adults working with children at the church.
