...it's vacation time!
Your editor will be on vacation next week. There will be a newsletter prepared in advance for that week, but obviously the usual Tuesday noon deadline won't apply. We'll be back to business as usual the following week.
NEOSOM OPEN HOUSE
The Northeast Ohio School of Ministry (NEOSOM) invites everyone to learn more about the school at an Open House on Thursday, June 7, from 5-8PM at Pilgrim UCC (130 Broad Blvd, Cuyahoga Falls). Come to enjoy refreshments, fellowship, the company of students, faculty, and administrators, and a brief concluding service of worship as we continue to find ways to strengthen our churches through learning. No RSVP necessary.

PRAYER NOTES invite us to think of one another, to take time to lift up to God our congregations, and to engage with one another in prayer, thanksgiving and supplication. You are invited to pray about four of our congregations this week per their prayer notes. You are also invited to send us prayer requests for your church and we'll be glad to include them in Prayer Notes.

JOIN UCCers WITH PRIDE
Cleveland will celebrate pride month with Pride in the CLE on Saturday, June 2. There is a march and a festival from 12-6PM. A UCC group will participate in the march which starts at noon on Lakeside and goes to Public Square. UCC national staff will also have a tent at Public Square to help share God's extravagant love. Can you help? Sign up here for the opportunity to hang with some of the coolest folks at one of the hottest events. And then stop by Amistad Chapel at the Church House for an art exhibit featuring local artists. Contact Janet Ross with questions and suggestions.
