Second Sunday of Easter
Hello parents & teachers!
Again, a very joyous Eastertide to all! The children will be continuing their Sunday School lessons with teachers Joan and Jennifer.
EPISCOPAL RELIEF & DEVELOPMENT VOTE!
This Sunday, the kids will be voting on how to divvy up their Episcopal Relief and Development collection, and they will be amazed at how much they've raised! We'll review the options, what each animal costs, and take a vote on how to distribute our money.
Thanks for all your help making this a success this year!
What a beautiful Easter Service, Coffee Hour and Easter Egg Hunt we had! And the children's Resurrection Gardens bloomed a tremendous amount of lush grass, and truly symbolized why we celebrate this Easter Day. The children were then able to take their Resurrection Gardens home with them, but there a few still here, so for those families, when you come next time they are on the table in the undercroft for you to take and continue to watch them grow at home! Thank so so very much to all who donated eggs for the egg hunt and helped create and nurture the lovely Resurrection Gardens! Here are a few Easter pictures:
Coming up at St. Nick's:
GREAT NEWS FROM OUR VESTRY "It is with great joy that we announce today the calling of our new Rector, Rev. Leigh Ellen Hall. Leigh is currently Associate Rector at St Paul’s Church in Albany, Georgia. Upon her arrival on June 1, she will become the second Rector in our parish’s history. Her calling was made in a unanimous vote of the Vestry, following a unanimous recommendation of the nine member Search Committee. We can’t wait for the entire congregation to get to know Leigh and concur with our conviction that our parish will flourish under our new Rector. As we said to the congregation when we started this transition last May - the Church of St Nicholas on the Hudson has a bright future!"
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL IS JULY 17th - 21st More details will be decided after the arrival of our new Rector, and with her arrival and the support of our wonderful members who donate their time and creativity each year, no doubt we will have another fun and inspiring VBS this summer! Mark your calendars and help us spread the word!
PERSONAL CARE PANTRY needs help stocking their shelves for families in need. The items currently most needed are: Paper towels, toilet paper, tissues, laundry detergent, hair conditioner and dish washing liquid. Linens Ministry could use gently used blankets and new pillows. Furniture Ministry needs able bodied volunteers to help with pick-up and delivery. Please see Liz P. or Eileen D. for more info. Thanks!
Blessings,
St. Nick's
Sunday School is for kids ages 4-12 and takes place in the undercroft from 10-10:30. Teachers, the current teaching schedule can be found here. Please let me (Jennifer Klein) know if you need to make any changes. Thanks for all you do!
