Congratulations
Graduates!
ON THIS GRADUATE RECOGNITION SUNDAY we celebrate the accomplishments of our young people whose dedication and hard work has earned them a new level of education and opportunity. Well done, God Bless, and Godspeed!
BILLY JOEL’S “PIANO MAN” is today’s postlude. You are welcome to listen to the piece instead of leaving. You may also want to move forward to hear better. Thanks Dr. Parker!
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL is almost here! Register online at www.saintjamesgi.net
HELP DECORATE FOR VBS on Sunday, July 23, right after the 10am service. Meet in Galloway Hall and our Children’s Ministries director, Andrea Watson, will have decorations to be taped up or placed creatively. Thank you!
MEMORIAL GARDEN MULCH is sitting in the parking lot. Wheelbarrows are by the dumpster chorale. Can you help lay it out? There’s no one to ask – just do it. And thank you!
ICE CREAM SUNDAYS are here! Following our summer 10am services look for the ice cream cart and tasty treats!
WANT TO ADD AN ANNOUNCEMENT? Please do! These announcements are open to any parishioner for any church or community related purposes. Just send an email to goodnews@saintjamesgi.net with the short paragraph you would like us to print, and we’ll make it happen.
DO YOU LIKE TO RUN? The Grosse Ile Educational Foundation will be holding the Simsonian 5k Race & 1 Mile fun Run / Walk on August 19, 2023. For more information and to register go to www.runsignup.com.
CAN YOU HELP WITH ICE CREAM SUNDAYS after a 10am service? It involves 3 things: 1) Either before the service or after communion (take communion first), move some ice cream treats from the standup freezer in the middle rummage room into the cooler and the cart standing next to it. 2) Fill up a clear reservoir with ice water in the kitchen and place it on the cart with some paper or plastic cups. 3) Push the cart to the front parking lot at the end of the service and put it all away after 20 minutes or so. This is a HUGE SERVICE to all our members, plus the kids especially love it! Look for the sign-up calendar near the kitchen and thank you!
