RUMMAGE SALE SETUP ON SATURDAY
Please come and help for a few hours on Saturday starting at 9am. There is a large quantity of work to be done, so even if you have not signed up to help, just come anyway! We have tables, clothing racks, shelving, and shoe racks to set up. And many pieces of our infrastructure to be brought up from the furnace room. As always, a delicious lunch will be served for those staying past noon. And anyone who wants to start messing in rummage in the afternoon can stay as well. Rummage work will continue on Sunday after church and every day until the sale. Please give a few hours of your time to this major church fundraiser. Everyone at St. Peter's benefits from the money this sale brings in. And the community that comes to shop also benefits from all our wonderful stuff. YEA RUMMAGE!

We are pleased to announce that St. Peter's Preschool Bible Storytime will start a ten week series next Wednesday, September 18th, at 10:00 a.m. We will start each session off with a few lively songs for the children and then enjoy two Bible stories. Each session will conclude with a simple craft and a small snack.
Please join us next Wednesday, September 18th, at 10:00 a.m. for St. Peter's Preschool Bible Storytime. If you have friends or neighbors with preschool-aged children, please share this information about Bible Storytime, so they can join in the fun this fall.
We look forward to seeing you and your children during this fall series of Bible Storytime! We will meet again this year in the Children's Chapel at St. Peter's which is located upstairs. Just enter the church through the front door and we will be just past the office on the right.

Please continue to pray for all those impacted by Hurricane Dorian, for those that respond to emergencies, those that have begun the initial work of relief and recovery, and for church communities as they reach out to their most vulnerable members and neighbors. You can donate to the Red Cross at redcross.org and to the Episcopal Relief and Development Fund online at episcopalrelief.org. There are mail in forms on the table in the foyer for the Episcopal Relief and Development Fund if you want to mail them a check or credit card information for their Hurricane Relief Fund.

As summer is starting to wind down, we ask that you please keep your pledge up-to-date through the remaining months of the year or, if you are behind in your pledge, please try to catch up. Even though our schedules may vary during the summer and we may be out of the area more often, we still have a payroll to meet and we must keep the building cooled and the utilities paid. If you are away for an extended period of time, you may want to consider mailing your pledge in to St. Peter's. Faithfully, Sandy Miller, Senior Warden
- Weekly choir rehearsals are now underway on Sundays in the choir room following the 10:30 service. We welcome all voices age High School and up to join. The choir sings for the 10:30 service and occasionally for the 8:00 service. Choir is a great way to make new friends, to enjoy fellowship, and to further your music education. We have several fun events planned for the fall including choir and orchestra music for Rev. Emily's installation as Rector and a Christmas Party at Daniel and Elizabeth's home in Baltimore. If you have any questions, please speak to Daniel Weatherholt, Director of Music or to a member of the choir. Daniel can also be reached at dweatherholt@stpeterspoolesville.org.
