Deacon's Dismissal  

(Musings from The Rev. Josh Butler)

Kenny carried a New Testament in his shirt pocket. It fit, now that Kenny quit smoking. Every month the mailman brought Kenny one of those booklets with daily lessons on scripture but that was too much for the shirt pocket. Kenny took to tearing a few pages out of the booklet and folded them into the Bible. Whenever a little time came available, Kenny would take out the page for that day and read along in the Bible then set the page somewhere for someone to find. Kenny was one of the early recyclers.

LOVE GOD. LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR. CHANGE THE WORLD.
How will you change the world?

Through the Bishop’s Annual Appeal you are feeding the hungry, giving comfort to those who are struggling, developing leaders, strengthening the church, and changing scores of lives every day.
Your gifts support clergy and lay formation opportunities, youth mission trips and leadership development, and outreach to the community.
It is a primary source of funding for Episcopal Community Services (ECS), which provides funds for parish-based outreach ministries that feed the hungry, educate children and young adults, provide spiritual freedom for people who are in prison, give hope to those who are struggling, and carry out God’s work in creative and inspired ways. Such programs provide crucial assistance to those in need. At the same time, they allow us to embody our Christian values and grow together spiritually.
Funds raised through the Appeal also help to underwrite mission trips and leadership development. They provide summer internships for high school and college students, and help to train and place newly ordained clergy.
It is only through your continued support that we are able to make such a difference in the lives of so many, extending to them God’s love and changing their worlds in ways that may most fully be measured by God’s gratitude.
Donate online HERE or pick up a donation envelope at St. Hubert's.

LET JESUS BE YOUR GUIDE - Sunday School News

As summer begins and our minds are filled with renewed joy and expectations, our Sunday School children learned about the Holy Trinity.  They made play doh with only three ingredients:  flour, salt and water representing how God can be three persons in one: God the father, God the son and God the Holy Ghost. 
 
With that message fresh on their minds and in their little hands as they kneaded the play doh, I spoke to them about a project we would make to help us remember to take Jesus with us this summer.  We crafted our very first bulletin board “Let Jesus Be Your Guide” featuring a campground.  I asked the children to bring back pictures of themselves during the summer and I would attach it to the board with ribbon.  Look for the bulletin board in the River Room
 
Thank you for the blessings of your children,
Doris
