This Sunday, June 10, is Sunday School Graduation & Concert at 10AM. Childcare as usual is provided (Sharen is away, but the Nursery will be staffed). The Outreach Committee is meeting after church this Sunday, and there will be a presentation by At Home in Somers (http://www.athomeinsomers.org/) after church. Evening Prayer will be offered this Sunday in the Memorial Garden. If you are interested in leading Evening Prayer on June 17 or June 24, or any Sunday in July or August please speak to Father Matt. We are only scheduling Sunday Evening Prayer in the Garden if someone signs up. Last Sunday the Evening Prayer is the Garden was simple and glorious. If you can’t make church on Sunday morning, I highly recommend coming to 5PM Evening Prayer in the Memorial Garden. Hopefully we will have leaders signed up soon for the summer so we can continue offering this great service.
The Investment Committee Meeting on June 13 has been POSTPONED to a date to be determined.
On Saturday, June 16, the Sustainability Committee invites you to a morning of vegetable picking at Hilltop Hanover Farm in Yorktown. Come anny time, but a number of people will be there around 10AM. You can pick your own vegetables. The SC plans to use some of those fresh vegetables to make dishes for the Father’s Day BBQ
On Sunday, June 17, we are having our annual Father’s Day BBQ after the 10AM service. There is a side/appetizer/dessert/beverage signup sheet in the hallway. There is also a signup sheet for the BBQ watch – we still need volunteers to cover the 4-6AM and 6-8AM shifts. Please email Father Matt at mead@goodshepherdny.org if you want to sign up for the watch – or sign up this Sunday! If you want to contribute to the beer/beverage/ice fund for the Father’s Day BBQ, please bring some cash (or checks) for the kitty this Sunday – its much easier to have the cash in advance to pay for the beverages – our estimates cost for the beverages and ice is $200. The plan is to have draft ale and fresh homemade lemonade and ice tea! If you want to assist with or donate to beverages, please speak to Father Matt
The next Vestry Meeting is Thursday, June 28.
Father Matt is on vacation in July.
