July Mission of the Month:  Come Support St. Jude's with Thrivent!!



Crossroad Financial Associates of Thrivent is sponsoring a team for the Sept. 23, 2017 St. Jude 5k Walk/Run for cancer in Boston and we'd like you and your church members to join us for free!
 
We are looking for walkers, runners, volunteers and donations. As you may or may not know, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is paving the way in ending childhood cancer. Families NEVER receive a bill for services rendered to their children, but that doesn't mean it isn't costly. CLICK HERE for more information about to how to sign up for this event.

Please help support this important cause!
 
Vacation Bible Camp
Come and join the fun!  

Our annual Vacation Bible Camp will be held the week of July 17-21.  The theme for this year is "Maker Fun Factory," a program where kids learn and explore as they become "hands on inventors who discover they are lovingly crafted by God."  Camp will run daily from 9-12:30.  Cost is $25 per child, with a family cap of $60 per family.  

CLICK HERE for 2017 registration materials!


Please support Vacation Bible Camp!
We are still accepting donations in support of our Vacation Bible Camp.  We are looking for donations of snacks and drinks.  There will be a sign up sheet in the Community Room with a list of items-feel free to choose anything from list.  If it is easier, you may place a contribution in the basket in the Sanctuary to help offset the cost of these important items!  
Looking Ahead...St. James Yard Sale

St. James Jammakers!  A note from Carol Fournier...
 

It's that time of the year when I start making jams for the Great Yard Sale.  Since we always do well, I'll be making as much as I can of hot pepper jam, strawberry, strawberry/rhubarb, blueberry, orange marmalade, peach marmalade, apricot marmalade, grape, cherry, tripleberry and other concoctions I can come up with.  So again this year, I ask is you can bring any empty jelly jars (8 oz. or 4 oz.) to the church and leave them in the office.  Also, if you have any extra rhubarb growing, I'd appreciate that now.  I would also love if you have any lightweight fabric suitable to use as coverings on jars, and season laying around (do not buy).  Other veggies or fruits I will use include: red bell peppers, Jalapeno peppers, strawberries, blueberries, oranges, peaches, apricots, cherries, Concord grapes, plus anything you suggest.  If you grow these in your garden, please save a little for me.

If you would like the join the St. James Jammakers, please call me at 401-310-0690 or 603-562-6200 and leave a message.

Thanks!
