Welcome Rev. Pam Gabel!
FR. PHIL IS LEADING VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL IS JULY 29-AUGUST 2! Kids can be registered for free online at www.SaintJamesGi.net Adults: We need your help! Send an email to vbs@saintjamesgi.net or reach out to Erin Shelton, our VBS volunteer coordinator. The week’s theme is Operation Restoration. It will consider all the ways we can help restore things, including in the natural world and in the Bible!
OUTDOOR 10AM SERVICES continue this week! Bring your own folding chair or use one of the church’s metal ones. The summer rain backup is the chapel. Come enjoy the service while enjoying our amazing view!
ICE CREAM SUNDAYS continue today! Following the service we have a cart with a cooler full of popsicles and other treats. Stick around and enjoy.
PLEASE SIGN UP TO HOST THE ICE CREAM CART for next week. The sign-up is just inside the main entryway doors on the magnetic board. We need one household a week to take communion first and then fill the cooler with ice cream. (Some people fill the cooler before the service so the cart is ready to be pushed out right away.) Please sign up on the magnetic board inside the main entrance.
ERICA BENSON, our seminarian, will be preaching at Saint James on Sunday, July 21. She has just “received Candidacy”, which means that she is on track to be ordained as a deacon this November or December and ordained as a priest next May or June. Congratulations Erica!
THE ECW HAS SCHEDULED a Tour of the Henry Ford Manor in Dearborn for Saturday, June 29, 2024 at 11:00am. We can meet at church around 9:45am to carpool or if you have arranged to carpool with someone, we can meet at the Manor which is located at 1 Fairlane Dr. Dearborn. If you haven’t already signed up to go on this trip and are interested in going, please let me know after church this Sunday. Thank you, Blanche Hutchison
WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH ECW? They will be cleaning the blue chairs on both July 2nd & 6th. Please come to help as you can. It’s an easy way to help out!
THE FIRST SEERSUCKER SUNDAY is coming soon (optional)! Next Sunday, June 30th, will be our first one of the summer! Not everyone is a lover of seersucker, but for those of you who are, look through your closets and drawers for your seersucker blouses, dresses, suits, ties, pants, skorts and shorts! Long live seersucker! -David Hartwell
THE ASPHALT PROJECT is getting closer to completion! Thanks to Pete Jett, our Jr. Warden for Building and Grounds, for doing such great work.
THE ANNUAL FINANCIAL AUDIT is starting soon and Charlotte Campeau needs volunteers! You don’t need to be “number people” to help out! You will be sorting through a year of statements, organize them into weekly bundles and choose what should be audited. Please contact Carlottte if you are interested!
BOOK GROUP resumes in mid-July.
