SILENT AUCTION THANK YOU! A huge thank you to everyone who attended and planned the silent auction, which was another success - both in terms of having a great time, most importantly, and in raising money for St. Nick's. We brought in over $4000 to support our parish!!

OCTOBER IS STEWARDSHIP MONTH October is the month we talk about financial stewardship of St. Nick's. Here are some dates you may wish to know:
October 12, 19, & 26 - parishioners share their thoughts on stewardship (one per service) at the 9 & 10 am service
October 19 & 26 - optional 20-minute stewardship presentation after church by Greg Freeman and the stewardship committee, with time for Q&A. Find out where our money goes and why it goes there. And ask questions!
October 26 - Stewardship Sunday, when we receive pledge cards, pictorial directories, and hear the stewardship sermon.
November 2- Pledge Ingathering Sunday. Bring your completed pledge cards back to church to place in the offering plate.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR A TREASURER Our faithful, beloved Larry Johnson is retiring from his post as treasurer, and we are now looking for someone to step into this role, starting in January. This is a very important ministry, but also manageable. Please feel free to talk to Astrid if you want more information about what it involves before you consider taking it on.
