New Hope Ministries- UMW has started a new mission, and we need your help! We are supporting New Hope Ministries of McKeesport who serve approximately 90 families in need.  New Hope Ministries has several programs they offer these families: one being a food pantry. Unfortunately, food pantries seldom get personal toiletries or paper products for clients. Our mission is to provide these items to New Hope Ministries. Personal toiletries for men and women include, for example, body soap, bar soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, etc. Paper products such as toilet paper, paper towels, and Kleenex are also needed. Please help us to reach out to these families. A donation box marked NEW HOPE MINISTRIES OF MCKEESPORT is in the Narthex. Thank you.

VBS– This summer we’re climbing aboard for Jesus! From July 27th to August 1st we’ll be “train”ing the next generation and teaching them about Jesus. We have signups for volunteers in the Narthex and registration has started for students between preschool age and 5th grade, you can register your child(ren) by pressing this link.

    

Early Dinner– Tonight we’ll be going to Longhorn Steakhouse. Next month we’re going to R-Place, Olive Garden, Rodney’s, and Carriage Inn.

   

Worship Requests– If you have a song that you’d like heard on a Sunday, either a hymn or more of a contemporary song please let Jennifer, Phil, or Lynn know. We want to make Sunday as fulfilling as possible for you.

Worship Help– If you have any ability or interest in playing an instrument or singing on a Sunday reach out to Phil, Lynn, or Jennifer. We’d love to have you help us out and share your gifts with the congregation! We’re looking for guitarists, drummers, singers, bagpipers, accordion players, or whatever!

   

Fall Fest– Just 5 months away! Save the date for October 18th. We’re working on getting vendors, activities, and sponsors. Stay tuned for more details! If you know any vendors please invite them! Also if you’d like to sponsor an activity or event please contact Phil, Jess, or Pastor Adam.

The Outreach Committee has a collection container on the desk in the Narthex!!  They are collecting all plastic caps from water bottles, soda bottles, etc.  These caps will be delivered to a patient of Ray Gronlund’s that will recycle for a cause.  Please remember to recycle the caps—not just for charity, but for the environment!!  “Tabs with a Purpose” – the Outreach Committee is collecting “tabs” from the top of soup, canned goods, beverage cans, and cat food for the Ronald McDonald House in Pittsburgh. Your TRASH gives them CASH!  Please deposit them in the container in the Narthex.
