Vacation Bible School Registration Time

Join our fun at our Vacation Bible School this summer.  It will be held from July 20th – July 25th from 6:00pm-8:15pm.  Camp E.D.G.E. is our theme.  All campers should be ready to start at 6:00pm sharp, so please arrive at the church a little early.  Registration forms will be on the narthex table.  If you have any questions, please call Sandy at 412-486-2032.

 

This action packed week is provided free of charge!  All the children of the community from 4 years old to 4th grade are encouraged to attend.

----------

If the above week doesn’t work for your schedule or you’re looking for another VBS opportunity, Good Shepherd Lutheran Church is hosting their program July 12th – July 16th from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.  Children 3 years to 6th grade are welcome to attend.  Cost is $10 per child.  Please call Jackie at

412-963-9494 ext 306 to register.

 

Door Fund

The wooden doors at the entrance of the church are not exterior doors.  As a result they are becoming weathered and should be moved to the inside archway.  A recent bid was received to place new glass doors at the front entry of the church for $3000.  The Finance Committee is establishing a fund to complete this task.  If you would like to contribute to this fund, please mark your gifts “door fund”.

 

Help Needed:  Blacktop sealing

The driveway and parking lot of the church is in need of patching and sealing.  Several bids have been received and they begin at $13,000.  Unfortunately we don’t have money in the budget for this requirement.  As a result, we plan on performing the sealing and line painting ourselves.  The tentative dates selected were Sunday afternoon, July 26th and all day Monday, July 27th.  Volunteers are needed!  Tar and brushes will be provided.  Please plan on helping out.  Contact Pastor Dave or Bob Amsler if you have any questions.

 

 

 

Longue Vue Garden Tour

Come out and see the beautiful Gardens at Longue Vue.  Tuesday, June 30th starting at 9:30am.  The cost is $32 for the tour and lunch.  Please register by using the sign-up sheet in Narthex.  If you have any questions, please contact Jeanne Hackworth.

 

Church Volunteers Needed

The church is in need of a volunteer helper for the Children’s Hour each Sunday this summer.  The class is held during the 10:00am worship service in the choir room located downstairs next to the office.  Please see Sandy Vaughn if you would like to help out.

 

All children 4 years and up are welcome to attend the Children’s Hour.
