MAY THE FOURTH\u00a0 \/ KENTUCKY DERBY:<\/strong> Two great events will be offered at Good Shepherd on Saturday May, 4th.\u00a0 May the Fourth is International Star Wars Appreciation Day.\u00a0 We will gather to watch Star Wars Movies, beginning at noon.\u00a0 Star Wars is obviously very Biblical and includes people who wear monk-like brown robes and speak familiar phrases like “May the Force be with you. \/ And also with you.”\u00a0 Very similar to “The Lord be with you. \/ And also with you.”\u00a0 We will have a break in our Star Wars action for the Kentucky Derby!!!\u00a0 The Derby coverage\u00a0tends to be on from about 5:00 PM until\u00a07:00 PM (yes, we are watching all of the Derby coverage because some of us have already seen Star Wars and you can never get enough Derby!!), so if you aren’t a Star Wars fan, just come for that and if you aren’t a Derby fan but you love Star Wars, just come for the movies.\u00a0 Wear your best Derby hats,\u00a0Star Wars costumes,\u00a0and bring potluck food, beverages, snacks, and that sort of thing.\u00a0 If anyone wants to collaborate on food, please do – the kitchen is available.\u00a0 A signup sheet is in the hallway for those who are interested and so people can figure out what to bring based on what others might be bringing.\u00a0 If someone is able to donate a second projector for the day, we can watch multiple things in multiple rooms!!!! – We can watch the original series in one room, and the prequel series in the other room.\u00a0 We will need dark sheets to cover the windows – does anyone have lots of spare dark sheets?<\/p>\n

Ascension Day Steak & Wine Dinner is Thursday, May 9, 2013.\u00a0<\/strong> Sung Mass at 6PM.\u00a0 Steak & Wine Dinner at 7PM.\u00a0 A signup sheet will be in the hallway this Sunday.\u00a0 We are looking for sponsors to help pay for the steak.\u00a0 We need approximately $300 (broken up in twelve $25 sponsors.)\u00a0 If you are interested in sponsoring the steak, please let me know ASAP.\u00a0 You can write a check to Good Shepherd (MEMO “Fellowship Fund”), but it is helpful for planning purposes to know how many sponsors we have.\u00a0 Wine\/Beer are potluck.\u00a0 All Sides are potluck.\u00a0 We need 2-3 Weber Grills (if you can loan us your grill for the day, please let Father Matt know).<\/p>\n

SODA & JUICE AT EVENTS.\u00a0<\/strong> If you are bringing soda to a church event, it is more helpful if we have cans than 2-liter bottles.\u00a0 We end up opening too many bottles and much of the soda is wasted since we don’t have events every day and we don’t have the space to store soda bottles in our fridge.\u00a0 If you are bringing juice for the kids, please consider juice boxes (that do not need to be refrigerated) for the same reason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
