The Summer Sunday Shift Is Coming
Starting in August and through Labor Day, we'll be doing Sundays a bit differently. The schedule is simple: worship at 10:30 in the sanctuary (and no classes), with lemonade following. There are variations on that theme for a couple of Sundays -- August 19, when we will also have a forum after worship telling about needed organ repairs, and August 26, when we won't just have lemonade, but a picnic. Stay tuned for details on those Sundays. But go ahead and mark your calendars for 10:30 on Sundays.
And here are three more suggestions for our Summer Shift:
- Dress cool and comfortably - like it's summer!
- Be sure to meet someone you don't know. With our two services combined, there will be some new faces for us all.
- And think about someone you can invite to worship!

St. Giles Kids in August...
We're going to try and keep things simple and cool for our St. Giles families this August, with plenty of time for fellowship and to enjoy this last month of summer...
- Sunday School for adults and kids will be on break, and we'll worship all together in the sanctuary at 10:30 each Sunday.
- Kids Own Worship for grades Kindergarten - 5th grade will also take a break in August, allowing our kids the chance to worship with their families during the entire service. This is a wonderful chance for us to help our kids learn how to worship with the larger church. For helpful hints on how to help your children survive & thrive in "Big Church", read here: Helping Your Kids Survive & Thrive in "Big Church"
- Nursery care for infants through Pre-K will continue to be available in the Rainbow Room Nursery.
- Drama Camp is coming up the week of August 13-17! We're all full, praise God, and would greatly appreciate your prayers for God's blessing to cover the week!
- There are lots of chances for us to fellowship with our larger church family this month! See Pastor Keith Hill's blog post for more details: https://presbykh.blogspot.com/2018/07/synching-up-life.html
- Questions or concerns? Don't hesitate to contact Heather Agnello, Director of Family Ministries, at [email protected] or at (804) 281-9763, ext. #14.
