CARE TEAM REPORT
By Jo Cargill-Krug
St. Paul’s Care Team met May 28th at the Parish Hall. Items discussed were as follows:
Bishop’s Visit—The bishop will be here June 4th for his annual visit for confirmations and EfM graduates. Coffee with the Bishop will take place between services and a potluck lunch will be served after the 10:30 service that day. Volunteers are needed to set up the potluck on Saturday.
Directory—Information for the Church Directory is complete and ready to go onto Realm. Several of us have made our information private in the Realm settings thus making the information unavailable to share. If you’re one of those, a care team member may be calling you asking permission to change your settings. The change can be made through the office.
Coffee Hour—Ellen Massey reported that Coffee Hour is going well. Please contact her to sign up to do refreshments for future dates.
Pub Theology—Due to scheduling complications in June, the next planned get-together will be Thursday, July 13th and will thereafter be scheduled on the second Thursday of each month. Location will be announced.
July 4th—Plans were made to hand out water at Riverside Park the afternoon and evening of July 4th. To volunteer for a time slot to work the booth, contact Mike or Rhonda Mundy. We also discussed handing out water to Lyon College students on “move-in day” in August. Mike suggested we look into purchasing a pop-up tent with the church’s name and logo imprinted on the outside for future events.
New Project—A suggestion was made that we collect personal care items to donate to our area shelters or assistance programs. We will have a basket in the church where items such as soap, toothbrushes and paste, deodorant, mouthwash, etc. will be collected for donation. This will be an on-going project.
Cards were signed and will be mailed to church members on our prayer list.
The next meeting for the Care Team is scheduled for June 25th at 6 p.m. following Evensong at 5 p.m. The Care Team meeting will include a meal. Sarah Harmon is leading the Care Team.
This is separate from Care Team report:
Members of St. Paul’s conducted a massive church-wide Rummage Sale May 20th and 27th in the Parish Hall. Much of the hard work was done by Brenda & Nikki Bittle and Mike & Rhonda Mundy who spearheaded the event. Brenda thanked all those who worked at the sale and to those who donated items to sell. A grand total of $2,145.55 was raised for the church with a portion earmarked for the Stinson Fund for music.
