The Anncoument For Sunday
Reminders & Announcements
Today
9 am Morning Pray followed by coffee and fellowship.
Upcoming
During the Wednesdays of Lent, we will have the Ways of the Cross (Stations) followed by a soup and bread meal. If you cannot make it, you can do stations at home with our prerecorded Stations.
Our March Outreach project will be collecting gift cards for Love Inc. (gas gift cards, grocery gift cards)
* Return of UTO boxes. United Thank Offering boxes, or the monies you put in one, should be turned in as soon as possible.
* {So far, two people have volunteered to read; the common thought is that this is insufficient.} We need Readers for The Passion story on Palm Sunday and again for Good Friday, and for the 7:30 pm Saturday, April 8 Easter Vigil service. Speak with Fr Matthew, or email/call/talk with the church office volunteers.
*we will share our April 6 Maundy Thursday service at Holy Communion, Lake Geneva.
* We are at St. John the Divine for a shared Good Friday service on April 7 at 6 pm.
*We welcome members of Holy Communion and all those eager to hear the Word of God to share the Saturday, April 8, 7:30 pm Easter Vigil here at St John the Divine.
Save the Date
* Save the Date! May 6! Beer, Blues, & BBQ fundraiser! At Low Daily in Burlington: This event is a big fundraiser for the church, and we’re hoping everyone can attend & participate. To keep the auction small and exciting, we ask for items “to do” or eat/drink that start at $100 value. Feel free to go in with others to assemble fun things (food/wine/beer basket, dinner, golf, etc.)! We are planning a 50/50 raffle and a “last man standing” with a BIG item for the winner.
Like the last BB&B, there will be a band, drink, and food. Again, this is our biggest fundraiser, and we need your support (in every respect)! If you have questions, please talk to Jessica Markham or Connie Herrick.
Silent Movie Night! On April 1, 2023, at 6:30 pm, we will have our 2nd annual religious film as we start to close this Lenten season. The film is From The Manger to the Cross or Jesus of Nazareth from 1912. For more info, check out this page.
How can you help?
* Can you help with Coffee Hour? Sign-up on the board in Healy Hall or here!
* The Transitional Living Center sent out a ‘help’ call for white twin sheet sets, laundry detergent, toilet paper, & garbage bags. Please bring TLC-needed items to the church; we will deliver your donations to them.
