Hello Old Donation!
It has been busy, busy around here. We had FANTASTIC worship on Sunday with a live sheep in the Gathering and just about 140 people there to be a part of it. And the weather was beautiful! It doesn't get much better than that.
Tonight, our Wednesday night program on Acts continues. Fr. Bob and I will be tag team teaching as we take a look at where the Christian church as we know it today began. There's a ton to discuss, and we need
you to help do it! And if you aren't totally sold, we'll be having Foon's Chinese for dinner. Holy Eucharist 6:00, dinner 6:30, program 7:00. Hope you can make it!
On Saturday, please note that we'll be holding a funeral for Larry Gurioli at 2:00. All are welcome and encouraged to come and support Carol and the Gurioli family, and honor Larry's life.
Coming Soon: Fiesta Cinco de Mayo! Tickets are on sale after all Sunday services for this excellent event on May 5, all proceeds to benefit Dos Santos, the latino mission on the Eastern Shore that our parish supports.
Also on sale are stock certificates for our J2A class and their pilgrimage this summer. Stop by their table after services on Sunday to support the spiritual development of our youth!
Finally, on Sunday I'll be preaching at 8:00 and 10:30, and teaching Power Hour at 9:30; Fr. Bob will be preaching at 9:15 and in the Gathering. We'll also be celebrating David King's last Sunday with us and thanking him for all he's done for our parish, as well as having a brief prayer service for Old Donation's historic marker directly following the 10:30 services. Can you remember all of that? Don't worry, we'll remind you again in the Sunday Scoop.
Hope to see you around!
