This Week's Announcements

Support the Youth Mission Trip!
The mission trip is coming up at the end of the month and the youth group will be headed to Savannah, Georgia the last week of June. We appreciate the current and previous support from the parish. So far, our fundraising includes the Mardi Gras silent auction, parents’ night out, the pancake supper, the bake sale, and this Sunday's $10 car wash, starting at 11:30 am. Other ways to support the youth group are to attend the post mission trip dinner on July 28 at 5 pm in Miller Hall and to buy a raffle ticket to win dinner for eight with Bishop Mariann. The tickets for the dinner are $15 and the tickets for the raffle are $10. We will be selling them in the narthex from now until the post trip dinner, where we will announce the raffle winner. Many thanks and hope to see you there!

Gaywood Elementary School Sock Collection
Earlier this year the Justice League learned that many Gaywood students lack enough socks. In response St George's began a sock collection, which is on-going. In particular, Gaywood needs kids' socks in solid white, navy and/or black. Donations can be left in the dedicated bin in the narthex. Many thanks!
 
Volunteer to Cover Flowers on a Sunday
Many thanks to Nell Sydavar for her creative and beautiful work on flowers this Easter season. Now that we have reached the Season after Pentecost Nell is taking a well-deserved break. If you would like to volunteer to do flowers for the altar any Sunday over the summer, let David know HERE.
 
Bible Study on Ruth and Esther
There are 156 Sundays in the three year cycle of the church readings (the lectionary) - and a total of 3 readings from the Book of Ruth and the Book of Esther show up. Learn more about these books by participating in a Monday evening bible study this spring. The books are quite short but raise themes of loving-kindness and suffering, identity and foreignness, empowerment and reversal. Join us on Mondays at 7 pm. You can speak to Karen Horrocks, Terry Doyle, Jocelyn Tidwell or Connie+ with questions. The next meeting is Monday, June 3 via Zoom, join HERE.
