This Sunday's lesson is here, for anyone interested!
BLESSING OF THE FIELDS SUNDAY MAY 1 Late April/early May are the "rogation days," days in the church when we bless the fields for the coming growing season. Join us after the 10 am service at Obercreek Farms as we bless the fields! This is a fun chance for the kids to hang out on a farm and learn about this tradition.
LOOKING AHEAD: CONFIRMATION CLASS MEETING SUNDAY JUNE 12 Have a child of confirmation age? The bishop will be visiting sometime in 2017, and if your son or daughter will be twelve by the beginning of the year, then they can begin confirmation classes this fall! Stick around for a brief meeting after church on June 12. We will look over the fall calendar and talk briefly about topics covered in the classes.
INTERESTED IN BEING ADDED AS A SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER? I'm currently making the Sunday School teacher schedule through mid-June, and we can definitely use more teachers! Teachers are scheduled approx every five weeks, so it's a reasonable commitment, especially if we have many of us signed on. Please let me know if you're interested or just have more questions - OR if you know of someone who might like to be asked. Meantime, teachers can find the schedule for the next month here.
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL IS JULY 18-22 Mark your calendars and help us spread the word! The theme will be announced sometime after Easter. And while we're thinking about summer...
EPISCOPAL SUMMER CAMP: INTERESTED IN GETTING A GROUP TOGETHER FROM ST. NICK'S? Did you know there is an excellent Episcopal sleep away camp in nearby Ivoryton, CT? Kids 7 and older can register to go for various weeks in the summer depending on your schedule, but please let me know if you're interested in possibly attending family camp, which is usually mid-to-late August. Families from around our diocese attend together, and maybe we can get a group of St. Nick's families together if there's enough interest! Email me if you'd like more information.
