Toiletries Collection for Gaywood Families
St George's provides monthly food assistance for a number of Gaywood Elementary School families, but those families often need items which fall outside the scope of our food program. Accordingly, during July we will be collecting toiletries for these families, and are asking for donations (full sizes only) of soap, shampoo, body lotion, deodorant, toothpaste and toothbrushes, and feminine hygiene products. Donations can be left in the bin outside the church office. Thank you for helping us support Gaywood families! Music Director Updates On August 14 St. George's will say farewell to our music director Josh Fishbein as we celebrate the parish's nearly five years of his ministry with us. Plan to stay (or come back) for a special hospitality in Miller Hall that day. Meanwhile, the job announcement for the St. George's Music Director position has been posted and a search committee has been formed. If you know anyone who may be interested in the position, please contact Tim Dangel at [email protected]. Special Q&A with Books to Prisoners July 24 On Sunday July 24 at 11:30AM, following the 10AM service, we will have a special live virtual Q&A with Andy Chan, the president of Books to Prisoners, one of the two charitable organizations we supported with our 2022 Lenten offerings. We often donate to causes without getting to see the impact of our gifts, so this is the first part of a series of opportunities for St. George's to learn more about and more closely connect with the people our donations and good works support. Please join us in the Sanctuary or on Zoom to give Mr. Chan a warm St. George's welcome, and bring your curiosity! |
