All Parish Conference Feedback Please click on http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SCOGWSH or respond to the few short survey questions in the dining room July 4 after the 10:00 service.

Grocery Shopping for the Emmanuel Food Center The volunteers who manage the Emmanuel Food Center need a few good (strong) people to help carry groceries. We will be meeting at the Aldi’s in Maplewood at 5:45 p.m. on Wednesday, July 14. Sign up in the dining room to lend a hand. For more information, call Hillary Perkins at 314-918-8914 or email her at hehptpl@sbcglobal.net
School Supplies Needed! School Supplies will be needed more this year than ever. With many parents unemployed, supplying three children can be farther than the budget will stretch. The Mission Committee is again sponsoring a collection of materials for elementary and secondary students. Containers will be in the narthex and the dining room. The in-gathering will be on August 1, so that supplies can be distributed.
Earl Naylor Farewell Earl Naylor is heading for his new position as Music Director at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church in Ellisville. After five years, we will certainly miss the sight of Earl at the organ. Thank you, Earl, for what you have taught us about music, for the mountain-top experiences you have brought us in worship, for your enthusiasm and your friendship. Things just won’t be as much PUN without you! (Rumor has it that one of the drawing cards at St. Martin’s is The Rev. Deacon Susan Naylor!). Join us July 11 after the 10:00 am service for a reception in the Dining Room in Earl’s honor.
