This Week's Announcements

Support the Youth Mission Trip!
The mission trip is coming up in a month and the youth group will be headed to Logan County, West Virginia the last week of June. We appreciate the current and previous support from the parish and invite your continued support. You can attend the post mission trip dinner on July 20 at 5 pm in Miller Hall - tickets are $15 and available now! You can also buy a raffle ticket to win dinner for eight with Bishop Mariann in her home - those tickets are also $15. Also available for purchase are personalized hot/cold cups supplied by our own Madison Brady. Regular red or blue cups are at $17 and personalized cups are $22. Dinner and Bishop raffle tickets are for sale now and you can find youth group members after church in the narthex from now until the post-trip dinner. The July 20 dinner is when the Bishop dinner raffle winner is announced. We have a Bake Sale this Sunday, Parents Night out this Friday (5/30), and a Car Wash next Sunday (6/1). 

Let's Make it a Potato Pentecost
On Sunday, June 8, the day we celebrate Pentecost, we are asking folks to bring in 10 pounds of potatoes or onions (or both)! St. Matthew’s, one of our neighboring Episcopal churches, has a monthly food pantry that serves over 200 families each month. Along with non-perishable necessities, they also give out produce as available - which is where St. George's comes in. To support this need of our neighbors, The Justice League would love to see St. George's become the "potato and onion" church on the first or second Sunday of each month. We will continue our support for the Bowie Food Pantry and move that collection to another Sunday.

Ministry Fair Sunday, June 8
Please join us during the hospitality hour on Sunday, June 8 for the Ministry Fair. This is your opportunity to learn more about all of the ministries that keep St. George’s running. Representatives will be available from each ministry to talk about their ministry and sign up anyone who wants to participate. If you have ever had a question about how to become a Lay Eucharistic Ministers or help out the Justice League, this is your chance to get that question answered! If you have any questions about the Ministry Fair itself, please speak to Karen Horrocks or any member of the vestry.
