This Week's Announcements

Potato and Onion Sunday is Sunday, September 7
Sunday, September 7, we are asking folks to bring in potatoes or onions again. Please note the red potatoes don’t hold up as well as their larger, drier cousins (Russet or Yukon Gold). St. Georgians have sent hundreds of pounds of potatoes and onions to our Episcopal neighbor St. Matthew's in Hyattsville - let’s keep it going! St. Matthew’s monthly food pantry serves over 200 families each month, giving out non-perishable necessities and produce as available. To support this need of our neighbors for produce, we are working to be the "potato and onion" church on the Sunday before the second Thursday of each month. We are in need of volunteers to pack up the potatoes and onions, deliver them to St. Matthew's, and unpack them starting at 9:00 am on Wednesday, September 10. Please sign up if you can help.

Chesapeake Baysox Game
St. George’s has a reserved block of 20 box seat tickets, at $13 per ticket, for the Baysox game against the Harrisburg Senators (Double-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals!) on Saturday, September 6, at 6:35 pm. Their 3RD ANNUAL CIRCUS NIGHT will be one to remember! Aerialists, contortionists, hand balancers, stilt walkers and MORE perform before and during the game! There will be fireworks after the game that night. We can get more tickets at $13 apiece - in May we had 32 attendees! If you’re interested in joining your fellow parishioners, or would like to invite some friends, for some fun, fellowship and baseball, contact Roy Peterson HERE. There is a sign-up sheet in the narthex! NO REQUESTS FOR TICKETS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER 1 PM ON SUNDAY, AUGUST 31.
