FIRST SUNDAY ACTIVITIES AND BREAKFAST
Breakfast between Services this Sunday
Along with a time to celebrate and remember birthdays and anniversaries, the first Sunday also
allows us to focus on fellowship with a breakfast meal. As usual, we will have a free breakfast this Sunday between services beginning at 9:15 am.
Many thanks to the "Order of the
Pancake" who come early and prepare a wonderful breakfast. Thank you to Luke Pearce and his
teams who take such good care of us on these days!
A reminder to please wear your name
badges, so guests who may come can get acquainted with us easier as we show our hospitality
in our varied and wonderful ways.
This is also the Sunday when the Blessing Bags get made to
both serve the Community Services League and the Blue Springs Police Dept, as well as for us to
take to give to the homeless who we may encounter on our daily travels.
Gabriella, our youth
coordinator, will also provide activities for the children during this time.
Come be part of the
fun!

FINDING FAITH THROUGH FICTION BOOK CLUB
This Monday, August 7 at 7 pm
The
Finding Faith Through Fiction Book Club will not meet in July. The next meeting will be at the church on Monday, August 7 at 7 pm to discuss the novel
A Morbid taste for Bones by Ellis Peters.
A Welsh Benedictine monk living at Shrewsbury Abbey in western England, Brother Cadfael spends much of his time tending the herbs and vegetables in the garden-but now there's a more pressing matter. Cadfael is to serve as translator for a group of monks heading to the town of Gwytherin in Wales. The team's goal is to collect the holy remains of Saint Winifred, which Prior Robert hopes will boost the abbey's reputation, as well as his own. But when the monks arrive in Gwytherin, the town is divided over the request.

INQUIRERS CLASS SET FOR FALL
Please see Fr. David if interested
Several comments from the recent survey suggested presentations on topics both theological
and traditional in regards to understanding the Episcopal faith. To address those suggestions
and to provide a study program on preparing folks for the sacrament of confirmation and
reception, an Inquirers Class is scheduled starting on
Wednesday evening, September 16
from
6:30 pm to 8:00 pm for six weeks, ending on October 17.
This class is for all who are interested in
learning and re-learning the story of the Episcopal Church, the Anglican tradition and why we do
the things we do as Christians in this unique faith tradition. There will be a sign up sheet in the
narthex soon for all interested in participating.
