ECUMENICAL PRAYER SERVICE
St. Kateri Catholic Church, Lagrangeville; Sunday, June 4th, 3:00 PM
This year's celebration of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity commemorates
the 500th anniversary of the beginning of the Reformation and is entitled,
"Reconciliation - The Love of Christ Compels Us" (2 Cor. 5:14-20). All are invited to
participate in this celebration of the Word of God and to listen to the message
delivered by the Rev. Margay Whitlock, interim pastor of St. John's
Lutheran Church. Special music will be provided by St. Kateri's parish choir.
A time for conversation and refreshments will follow the service. ALL are invited to celebrate our desire to answer the Lord's prayer for his followers, "that they may all be one" (John 17:21)
CAPITAL CAMPAIGN NEWS Thank you to everyone who continues to give to St. Nick's capital campaign. It is because of your generosity and the time that has been dedicated to this project that we have been able to make a more firm foundation for our worship space. Anyone who would like to check their pledge status can contact Dana at [email protected]. Those of you who would like to make a payment towards your campaign pledge here are two easy ways to make a payment:
1. Put your payment into the big box in the back of the church which is marked "Capital Campaign". Please write "Capital Campaign" on all checks, this will help keep Sunday donations distinct from campaign donations.
2. Mail your payment to the St. Nick's at 37 Point St., New Hamburg NY. Once again please write "Capital Campaign" on all checks.
COFFEE HOUR The sign-up sheet through July is now available for those who would like to host. It can be simple: Cookies, carrot sticks, crackers and cheese - whatever you can pick up at the store. The coffee is already made for you by the altar guild. Click HERE for instructions, ideas, and to sign up. Thank you!
